... that one of the most heavily mined watersheds in the world is Nevada County, California's Wolf Creek, which originates on Banner Mountain?

- I'm rather hesitant about this one. the "most heavily mined" claim is from a single source with an apparent POV and no citations for there statement. I would like to see more citations for the claim added if possible. I seems rather unlikely given it would have to out compete the Columbian emerald mines, Yukon gold placers, and African diamond placers.--Kevmin § 15:56, 20 March 2013 (UTC)
- I see your point so how about
- ALT1: ... that Wolf Creek, which originates on Banner Mountain, has a heavily mined watershed? --Rosiestep (talk) 03:53, 21 March 2013 (UTC)
- Alt 1 seems good. Is there anyway to get additional references for the Republic of North California paragraph. Possibly news articles on it or similar?--Kevmin §
- Added another newspaper reference to the Republic paragraph. -- Esemono (talk) 03:10, 31 March 2013 (UTC)
- Note: struck original hook due to issues above; formatted ALT1 so it's on the left and more visible. BlueMoonset (talk) 03:47, 2 April 2013 (UTC)
