Mohave County's northern Arizona placer belt, anchored by the Chloride and Oatman historic districts, produced substantial gold from stream gravels and bench deposits during the 1890s–1950s. The Eldorado, Virgin, and Hualpai valleys contain mapped paleochannels and terrace deposits. Modern interest has focused on reprocessing historic tailings and exploring under-explored paleochannel extensions. The BLM Hassayampa Field Office handles federal claims; high desert elevation provides year-round access.
