The first important gold find in the U.S. was in North Carolina in 1799. Another find occurred in Georgia in 1827. When gold was discovered in California in 1849, almost half a million hopeful prospectors came from all parts of the world. In nine years, over twenty-four million ounces of gold were found in the new fields. When gold was discovered in Alaska in 1896, only about 4,000 of some 60,000 prospectors found some gold, with only a few hundred making really big strikes.
