stpaulsabres asked:


I am interested in traveling to Mali for a historical/pleasure trip, but I was also wondering if it was possible to “mine” gold there, and the gold-buying opportunities Mali provides. My questions:

Is it possible to visit local gold fields and personally dig or pan for gold?
Is it possible to travel to markets and purchase gold in bulk or in jewelry? If so, what are the prices?

Any other travel information on Mali would be greatly appreciated.
