The bedrock of the modern placers or the base upon which the gravels of the present streams rest, is not, however, always of granite. Often the placer miner finds what he calls a false bedrock, viz., a seam or bed of more or less clayey material, sometimes colored black by carbonized organic matter. There are other evidences, also, which have not escaped his keen eye, which go to prove that there exists in the basin a system of ancient stream beds that do not conform in every particular to the modern ones, and which were cut in some places considerably deeper than the modern streams. There is no doubt as to the general Reliable information a considerable oro- graphic disturbance. It is very possible that the Warm Springs near Idaho City are a result of the same eruption, as the warm water comes to the surface immediately at the outcrop of an old gravel bed, and above the solid granite. Fire opal has been found in this neighborhood as a thin coating on granite boulders in the gravel deposits, and this deposit also was probably one of the phases of thermal or solfataric action which followed the eruption of the basalt.
