    Gold mining techniques in 1849 included panning in rivers to separate gold from rocks and dirt using flowing water, the rocker method used a sluice-like device to separate dirt from gold, and hydraulic mining used high-pressure water jets to extract gold from riverbeds and hillsides. People still search for gold today using modern prospecting methods.
