1880 Toronto Globe Miners in the Far West have a practice of conducting explorations by a means which they call ‘booming’. It consists in damming up some gorge on a mountain side and allowing the water from melting snow to accumulate till an immense reservoir has been formed. When the pond is full an outlet is made, and the water rushes down with irresistible force, overwhelming everything in its path..Rich veins and deposits of ore are often uncovered by this process.
