Book excerpt: This updated paperback edition of Virginia Gold Mines - The Golden Piedmont, A Historical Perspective from Virginia native Ben Beydler traces the roots of gold in the Commonwealth all the way back to one of the nation’s founding fathers, Thomas Jefferson, who was responsible for the first gold discovery in the state. Certainly, California is at the top of the list for most folks when talk turns to gold, but Virginia’s history with the precious metal is just as colorful and entertaining. Jefferson, Alexander Spotswood, Henry Ford, and Commodore Robert Stockton are just a few of the historical figures who at one time or another had their hands on some of Virginia’s gold. The book not only traces the history of gold discoveries in Virginia from the 1800s to the present, but it details the many different mines that have been open and operating during that time period from the Potomac to the Piedmont. Everything from geology of the state to the evolution of mining practices is addressed. Virginia Gold Mines – The Golden Piedmont – A Historical Perspective is both educational and informative, and the images it conjures up just might make you want to run out and buy a metal detector, or do a little panning by the river the next time you’re on vacation.

Download or read book Metal Detecting written by Sophie Henner and published by Freegulls Publishing House. This book was released on with total page 41 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Metal detecting involves using a metal detector, an electronic device designed to find metal objects nearby. These devices vary in form, from handheld wands to large industrial machines. The main components of a metal detector include the control box, which houses the electronic circuitry, controls, and batteries; the search coil, also known as the antenna, which senses metal objects; the shaft, which connects the search coil to the control box and is often adjustable for comfort; and sometimes a stabilizer to keep the unit steady during use. The search coil generates an electromagnetic field, and when this field encounters a metal object, it creates a disturbance. The control box processes this disturbance and sends a signal to the user, typically an audible beep or a visual display. Metal detecting is used for various purposes, including treasure hunting, where individuals search for coins, jewelry, relics, and other valuable items lost or buried; archaeology, to locate historical artifacts at dig sites; security, for scanning individuals or luggage for concealed weapons or contraband; and construction, to detect metal pipes or rebar in walls, floors, or underground. It is also a popular hobby for enthusiasts who explore parks, beaches, and other areas for interesting finds.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This comprehensive text and reference book addresses the questions and problems of cultural resources archaeology for undergraduate and graduate students and practicing archaeologists. Neumann, Sanford, and Neumann use their decades of field experience to discuss in great detail the complex processes involved in conducting a cultural resources management (CRM) project. Dealing with everything from law to logistics, archival research to artifact analysis, project proposals to report production, they provide an invaluable sourcebook for archaeologists who do contract archaeology. After introducing the legal and ethical aspects of CRM and stakeholder engagement, the authors describe the processes of designing a proposal and contracting for work, doing background research, conducting assessment, testing, mitigation work (Phase I, II, and III), laboratory analysis, and preparing reports for project sponsors. The volume’s emphasis on practical problems, use of extensive examples, and detailed advice on a host of subjects make it an ideal manual for archaeologists and field schools. This revised and expanded third edition of Practicing Archaeology: A Manual for Cultural Resources Archaeology updates Federal and state contracting protocols and covers preparing safety plans for occupational hazards, organization of an archaeology laboratory, use of electronic technology and digital media, advice on field and personnel management, and how to make a living doing cultural resources archaeology.
