Òr/Gold Rush

Join Calum Macdonald, Kerry Anne Macleod and the History Hunters to learn about the history of the Californian gold rush. In 1848, an American called James Marshall found gold in a Californian river and this sparked the Californian gold rush. Today, the History Hunters dig the dirt on this mesmerising mineral in the garden, mining for gold 1850s style using original techniques such as fossicking.

Their second mission involves an experiment to test the density and magnetic field of mum's chain to discover whether it's fool's gold or the real deal.

Back in the studio, Calum and Kerry Anne build a windlass, a winch which came in pretty handy for gold prospectors, from cans, straws and paperclips. But can they work out their how much their weight is worth in gold?
