Alluvial gold is a type of gold that is found in river beds, streams, and other waterways. It is formed when gold particles are eroded from their original source, such as a vein or deposit, and are carried downstream by water. Over time, these particles settle in the sediment of the river bed or stream, creating deposits of alluvial gold.

Four Tertiary leads and deep leads, all partly basalt covered, were worked for gold in the late 1800s in the Back Creek area: the Albion (Red), Back Creek (Old or Blackman), Cardigan (Prince of Wales) and the White (Deep) leads. A production of about 300 kg of gold in 1870–1872 was estimated by Broadhurst (1935).

3. Deposits that were formed in one environment and modified in subsequent environments. Such deposits may now lie hidden under various thicknesses of sediments, volcanics and vegetation onshore, or beneath oceanic waters and marine sediments along some continental shelves. 4-. Auriferous quartz pebble conglomerates.
