Ever dreamt of hiking over the landscape and finding a mineral vein rich with ores, perhaps even silver or gold glittering in the sunshine, like in the Hand of Faith vein in Australia? How about joining the gold rush fever--without trekking up the Chilkoot Pass as thousands of prospectors did well over 100 years ago?
The chances of finding a "mother lode" are slim, even when trying hard. They are similar to winning the jackpot in a big lottery. But don't give up just yet; there is a new "horizon" for your exploration activity--the new frontiers are way up in the outer space and deep down in the oceans (the latter to be the subject of another post)!
