The history of gold is as ancient as that of mankind. Gold affects human life deeply as an icon. From the very start, the quality of people's life or a culture seems to have been closely linked with the glamour of gold.Panning for gold has been practiced throughout China's history to the present day, representing the arduous and complicated formation of the history of its people. Placer gold is obtained only after the sand is pan-washed again and again, just like a perso's growth or the process of the formation of a culture. Traditional Chinese culture has undergone a similar long and arduous process. Ancient gold mines and streams where gold was panned remind us of the wells and flows of history.
