520    One Thursday in 2008 the price of gold went above a 
       thousand dollars an ounce for the first time in history. 
       All over the world, at least in countries with gold-
       bearing soil, people with no experience of prospecting 
       began shopping for shovels and pickaxes, gold pans, tents,
       generators and all manner of equipment they had no idea 
       how to use. And off they went mining. In 2013, Steve 
       Boggan followed them, packing his bags and flying to San 
       Francisco to join the 21st century's gold rush in a quest 
       to understand the allure of the metal - and maybe find a 
       bit for himself, too. Meeting a selection of colourful 
       characters, he gets a crash course in small-scale 
       prospecting while learning about the history and economics
       of gold.
