Panning for gold, Kildonan Burn Geologists from the University of Aberdeen panning for gold in the burn. Alluvial gold was first found here in the 19th century, leading to a mini gold rush here in 1869.

Gold can still be found in small quantities. The photographer found a single flake! What the photograph doesn't convey is the temperature of the water. It was freezing!
