Why is California geology so rich in gold? Discover the intense tectonic forces that created the state's famous deposits. We explain how the collision of the North American and Pacific plates generated the heat and pressure necessary to form gold. You will learn about the specific geological processes, including the role of water and minerals like galena, that concentrate these precious metals.
