PINTO DISTRICT GOLD HISTORY The most important placer district in Utah is the Pinto district, which produced more than 75,000 ounces of placer gold. The placers in the Pinto district occurred in thick gravel deposits in Pinto Canyon and tributary drainages and were derived mostly from oxidized copper and lead-zinc-silver ores of Oligocene age. Gold was discovered in Washington County sometime in the late 1800s and the area was being actively prospected by 1895. 40 lode claims and 1 placer claim were brought to patent as a result of the early work. The area was largely ignored until the mid-1970s when a search was begun for disseminated gold deposits of the type then being actively mined in central Nevada. This search was successful and led to the production of approximately 200,000 ounces of gold. A good sign for our claim here is that experienced gold prospectors have claims in this area and have been working them for years.
