Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]	'
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Basis of Presentation	'
	NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
	Pacific Gold Corp. (“Pacific Gold”) was originally incorporated in Nevada on December 31, 1996 under the name of Demand Financial International, Ltd. On October 3, 2002, Demand Financial International, Ltd. changed its name to Blue Fish Entertainment, Inc. On August 5, 2003, the name was changed to Pacific Gold Corp. Pacific Gold is engaged in the identification, acquisition, and development of prospects believed to have gold, vanadium, uranium, and tungsten mineral deposits. Through its subsidiaries, Pacific Gold currently owns mining claims, property and leases in Nevada and Colorado.
	Basis of Presentation
	These consolidated financial statements and related notes are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, and are expressed in U.S. dollars. The Company’s fiscal year-end is December 31.
	Principle of Consolidation
	The consolidated financial statements include all of the accounts of Pacific Gold Corp., its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Nevada Rae Gold, Inc., and Fernley Gold, Inc., and its majority – owned subsidiary, Pacific Metals Corp. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
	Reclassification of Accounts
	Certain accounts in the prior period have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.
	Significant Accounting Principles
	Use of Estimates and Assumptions
	The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect (i) the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, (ii) the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities known to exist as of the date the consolidated financial statements are published, and (iii) the reported amount of net sales, expenses and costs recognized during the periods presented. Adjustments made with respect to the use of estimates often relate to improved information not previously available. Uncertainties with respect to such estimates and assumptions are inherent in the preparation of consolidated financial statements; accordingly, actual results could differ from these estimates.
	Cash and Cash Equivalents
	The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. At March 31, 2014, and December 31, 2013, cash includes cash on hand and cash in the bank.
	Revenue Recognition
	Pacific Gold recognizes revenue from the sale of minerals when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, services have been rendered, the sales price is fixed or determinable, and collection is reasonably assured, which is determined when it places a sale order of gold from its inventory on hand with the refinery.
	Accounts Receivable/Bad Debt
	The allowance for doubtful accounts is maintained at a level sufficient to provide for estimated credit losses based on evaluating known and inherent risks in the receivables portfolio. Management evaluates various factors including expected losses and economic conditions to predict the estimated realization on outstanding receivables. As of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, there was no allowance for bad debts.
	Inventories
	Inventories are stated at the lower of average cost or net realizable value. Costs included are limited to those directly related to mining. There were no inventories as of March 31, 2014 or December 31, 2013.
	Property and Equipment
	Property and equipment are valued at cost. Additions are capitalized and maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Gains and losses on dispositions of equipment are reflected in operations. Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which are 2 to 10 years.
	Mineral Rights
	All mine-related costs, other than acquisition costs, are expensed prior to the establishment of proven or probable reserves. Reserves designated as proven and probable are supported by a final feasibility study, indicating that the reserves have had the requisite geologic, technical and economic work performed and are legally extractable at the time of reserve determination. Once proven or probable reserves are established, all development and other site-specific costs are capitalized.
	Capitalized development costs and production facilities are depleted using the units-of-production method based on the estimated gold which can be recovered from the ore reserves processed. There has been no change to the estimate of proven and probable reserves. Lease development costs for non-producing properties are amortized over their remaining lease term if limited. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred.
	As per Industry Guide 7, we have no proven or probable reserves.
	Intangible Assets
	The Company’s subsidiary Pacific Metals Inc. has acquired a mining claims database which is being amortized over its estimated useful life of ten years using the straight-line method.
	Intangibles Assets	March 31,			December 31,

	Amortization expense for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 was $250.
	For these assets, amortization expense over the next five years is expected to be $4,750.

	Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
	The Company reviews the carrying value of its long-lived assets annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the historical cost-carrying value of an asset may no longer be appropriate. Pacific Gold assesses recoverability of the carrying value of the asset by estimating the undiscounted future net cash flows, which depend on estimates of metals to be recovered from proven and probable ore reserves, and also identified resources beyond proven and probable reserves, future production costs and future metals prices over the estimated remaining mine life. If undiscounted cash flows are less than the carrying value of a property, an impairment loss is recognized based upon the estimated expected future net cash flows from the property discounted at an interest rate commensurate with the risk involved. If the future net cash flows are less than the carrying value of the asset, an impairment loss is recorded equal to the difference between the asset’s carrying value and fair value.
	The fair value of an asset retirement obligation is recognized in the period in which it is incurred if a reasonable estimate of fair value can be made. The present value of the estimated asset retirement costs is capitalized as part of the carrying amount of the long-lived asset. For Pacific Gold, asset retirement obligations primarily relate to the abandonment of ore-producing property and facilities.
	We review the carrying value of our interest in each group of mineral claims owned by our subsidiaries on an annual basis to determine whether impairment has incurred in the claim value. We evaluate the mineral claim values based on one of four criteria; cash flow projection, geological reports, asset sale and option agreements, and comparative market analysis including public market value. Where information and conditions suggest impairment, we write-down these properties to the lowest estimated value based on our evaluation criteria. Our estimate of gold price, mineralized materials, operating capital, and reclamation costs are subject to risks and uncertainties affecting the recoverability of our investment in property, plant, and equipment. Although we have made our best estimate of these factors based on current conditions, it is possible that changes could occur in the near term that could adversely affect our estimate of net cash flows expected to be generated from our operating properties and the need for possible asset impairment write-downs.
	Where estimates of future net operating cash flows are not available and where other conditions suggest impairment, we assess if carrying value can be recovered from net cash flows generated by the sale of the asset or other means.
	Fair Value for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities
	The Company follows paragraph 825-10-50-10 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) for disclosures about fair value of its financial instruments and paragraph 820-10-35-37 of the FASB ASC (“Paragraph 820-10-35-37”) to measure the fair value of its financial instruments. Paragraph 820-10-35-37 establishes a framework for measuring fair value in U.S. GAAP, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. To increase consistency and comparability in fair value measurements and related disclosures, Paragraph 820-10-35-37 establishes a fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. The three levels of fair value hierarchy defined by Paragraph 820-10-35-37 are described below:
	Level 1      Quoted market prices available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date.
	Level 2      Pricing inputs other than quoted prices in active markets included in Level 1, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date.
	Level 3      Pricing inputs that are generally observable inputs and not corroborated by market data.
	The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities, such as cash and accounts payable approximate their fair values because of the short maturity of these instruments.
	The company does not have assets and liabilities that are carried at fair value on a recurring basis.
	Income Taxes
	In accordance with ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes, Pacific Gold recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities based on differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities using the enacted tax rates and laws that are expected to be in effect when the differences are expected to be recovered. Pacific Gold provides a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets for which it does not consider realization of such assets to be more likely than not.
	Loss per Share
	The basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted net loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss adjusted on an “as if converted” basis, by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus potential dilutive securities. For the year ended March 31, 2014 potential dilutive securities had an anti-dilutive effect and were not included in the calculation of diluted net loss per common share. As of March 31, 2014, and December 31, 2013 the Company had 293,423,722 and 1,405,382,164, respectively, of potentially dilutive common stock equivalents.
	Advertising
	The Company’s policy is to expense advertising costs as incurred. For the three months ended March 31, 2014, and 2013, the Company incurred $461 and $491, respectively, in advertising costs.
	Environmental Remediation Liability
	The Company has posted a bond with the State of Nevada in the amount required by the State of Nevada equal to the maximum cost to reclaim land disturbed in its mining process. The bond requires a quarterly premium to be paid to the State of Nevada Division of Minerals. The Company is current on all payments. Due to its investment in the bond and the close monitoring of the State of Nevada, the Company believes that it has adequately mitigated any liability that could be incurred by the Company to reclaim lands disturbed in its mining process.
	Financial Instruments
The Company’s financial instruments, when valued using market interest rates, would not be materially different from the amounts presented in the consolidated financial statements.
Convertible Debentures
Convertible debt is accounted for under ASC 470, Debt – Debt with Conversion and Other Options. The Company records a beneficial conversion feature (BCF) related to the issuance of convertible debt that have conversion features at fixed or adjustable rates that are in-the-money when issued and records the fair value of warrants issued with those instruments. The BCF for the convertible instruments is recognized and measured by allocating a portion of the proceeds to warrants and as a reduction to the carrying amount of the convertible instrument equal to the intrinsic value of the conversion features, both of which are credited to paid-in-capital. The Company calculates the fair value of warrants issued with the convertible instruments using the Black-Scholes valuation method, using the same assumptions used for valuing employee options for purposes of following ASC Topic 718, except that the contractual life of the warrant is used. Under these guidelines, the Company allocates the value of the proceeds received from a convertible debt transaction between the conversion feature and any other detachable instruments (such as warrants) on a relative fair value basis. The allocated fair value is recorded as a debt discount or premium and is amortized over the expected term of the convertible debt to interest expense. For a conversion price change of a convertible debt issue, the additional intrinsic value of the debt conversion feature, calculated as the number of additional shares issuable due to a conversion price change multiplied by the previous conversion price, is recorded as additional debt discount and amortized over the remaining life of the debt.
The Company accounts for modifications of its Embedded Conversion Features in accordance with ASC 470-50, Debt – Modifications and Exchanges, which requires the modification of a convertible debt instrument that changes the fair value of an embedded conversion feature and the subsequent recognition of interest expense or the associated debt instrument when the modification does not result in a debt extinguishment pursuant to ASC 470-50-40, Debt – Modification and Exchanges – Extinguishment of Debt.
Derivative Liability Related to Convertible Notes
The derivative liability related to convertible notes and warrants arises because the conversion price of the Company’s convertible notes is discounted from the market price of the Company’s common stock. Thus, the number of shares that may be issued upon conversion of such notes is indeterminate, which gives rise to the possibility that the Company may not be able to fully settle its convertible note and warrant obligations by the issuance of common stock.
The derivative liability related to convertible notes and warrants is adjusted to fair value as of each date that a note is converted or a warrant is exercised, as well as at each reporting date, using the Black-Scholes pricing model. Any change in fair value between reporting dates that arises because of changes in market conditions is recognized as a gain or loss. To the extent the derivative liability is reduced as a consequence of the conversion of notes or the exercise of warrants, such reduction is recognized as additional paid-in capital as of the conversion or exercise date.
Stock Based Compensation
The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC Topic 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation which requires that the fair value compensation cost relating to share-based payment transactions be recognized in the consolidated financial statements. Share-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date, based on the fair value of the award, and is recognized over the employee’s requisite service period, which is generally the vesting period. The fair value of the Company’s stock options is estimated using a Black-Scholes option valuation model. There were no stock options granted during the three months ended March 31, 2014 or 2013.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
The Company does not expect the adoption of any other recently issued accounting pronouncements to have a significant impact on its results of operations, financial position or cash flow.

	NOTE 3 – LOAN RECEIVABLE
	As part of the asset sale agreement of Pilot Mountain mineral rights, Pilot Metals, Inc. (“the purchaser”) agreed to pay the sum of $850,000 on or before March 31, 2014. In the event that the purchaser did not pay the sum of $850,000 on or before March 31, 2014, the escrow holder was to record the Special Warranty deed with the mineral county recorder. The sum of $850,000 includes imputed interest at a rate of 10% per annum. On February 18, 2014, the company completed an amendment to its Option and Asset Sale Agreement with Pilot Metals Inc. (See Note 4). As amended, instead of $850,000 to be paid on March 31, 2014 and $1,000,000 on the commencement of commercial mining, the company received $200,000 on February 18, 2014 and received $400,000 on March 31, 2014 with $1,500,000 to be received on the commencement of commercial mining. Pilot Metals has an option that is good until September 30, 2014, to purchase $500,000 of the final $1,500,000 payment for $250,000. All payments are subject to a 15% royalty to be paid to Platoro West.
	The $250,000 amount receivable includes 10% imputed interest and is shown at its discounted balance of $238,434 at March 31, 2014.

	Option and Asset Sale Agreement
	On February 10, 2011, our prior subsidiary Pilot Mountain Resources Inc. (“PMR”) entered into an Option and Asset Sale Agreement (“Agreement”) with Pilot Metals Inc., a subsidiary of Black Fire Minerals of Australia, whereby Pilot Metals secured an option on the Project W Tungsten claims.
	The basic monetary terms of the Agreement called for Pilot Metals to pay PMR $50,000 for a 100 day due diligence period on the mining claims. The option payment was received on signing the agreement and recorded as income. Within the initial 100 day option period, Pilot Metals had the right to exercise an additional 24 month option on the claims by paying a further $450,000. The right for an additional 24 months option period was exercised and during the 24 month option period, Pilot Metals has conducted physical due diligence work including sampling, drilling and any other work on the claims it deemed necessary. A payment of $450,000 was received on September 9, 2011 and recorded as income.
	At any point prior to the conclusion of the 24 month option period, Pilot Metals had the option to exercise an option and election to purchase 100% of the claims.
	On July 5, 2013, PMR and Pilot Metals agreed to an early exercise of the option to purchase the Project W claims. Ownership of the Project W claims has now been transferred to Pilot Metals, subject to a security interest retained by PMR until the full purchase price is paid. As part of the decision to exercise the purchase option, the purchaser of the claims, Pilot Metals, agreed to amend the purchase terms to accelerate the ownership of and payment for the claims. The initial three payments of $500,000 each due in September 2013, 2014 and 2015 were amended to two payments, the first paid on July 5, 2013 in the amount of $350,000 and a second payment of $850,000 was due on March 31, 2014.
	On February 18, 2014, the company completed an amendment to its Option and Asset Sale Agreement with Pilot Metals Inc. As amended, instead of $850,000 to be paid on March 31, 2014 and $1,000,000 on the commencement of commercial mining, the company received $200,000 on February 18, 2014 and received $400,000 on March 31st with $1,500,000 to be received on the commencement of commercial mining. Pilot Metals has an option that is good until September 30, 2014, to purchase $500,000 of the final $1,500,000 payment for $250,000.
	The payments made to PMR are subject to a 15% royalty to Platoro West, Inc. all royalty payments have been made.

	NOTE 8 – FINANCING
	Convertible Notes
	Convertible Notes Series A:
	Series A notes (i) have a conversion rate of a 45% discount to the daily VWAP (volume – weighted average price, which is a measure of the average price the stock has traded over the trading horizon) price of the common stock based on a five day period prior to the date of conversion, the rate is subject to certain adjustments, (ii) have an annual interest rate of 12%, due at maturity, (iii) have a new maturity date of 1 year from issuance date, (iv) prepayment is permitted only with a premium of 50% of the amount being repaid, (v) have a ratchet protection of the conversion anti-dilution provisions for all future issuances or potential issuances of securities by the company at less than the then conversion rate, and (vi) have additional default provisions, including additional events of default and an default interest rate of 24.99%. The company has also agreed that the assigned debt will not be subordinate to new debt, other than purchase money and similar debt, which may have the effect of limiting the company’s access to additional debt capital while the notes are outstanding. Based on the above and without taking into account the conversion of any of the interest to be earned or converted, the principal if fully converted represents the potential issuance of 50,000,000 shares, limited to a maximum conversion right at any one time to 4.99% of the then outstanding shares of common stock of the company.
	During the year ended December 31, 2013, the company agreed to the assignment of an additional $175,000 in principal of outstanding promissory note to a third party under the same terms as discussed above.
	During the three months ended March 31, 2014, the company agreed to the assignment of an additional $100,000 in principal of outstanding promissory note to a third party under the same terms as discussed above.

	NOTE 10 – OPERATING LEASES
	The Company has leased approximately 440 acres of privately owned land adjacent to its staked prospects from Corporate Creditors Committee LLC, by lease dated October 1, 2003. The Company paid an advance royalty of $7,500 for the first year, which amount is increased by $2,500 in each of the next five years to be $20,000 in the sixth year. For the last four years of the lease, the advance royalty is $20,000 per year. If the lease is renewed, the annual advance royalty is $20,000. The advance royalty is credited to and recoverable from the production rental amounts. The royalty is the greater of a 4% net smelter royalty or $0.50 per yard of material processed. The lease is for 10 years with a renewal option for another 10 years.
	In 2011, Nevada Rae Gold (“NRG”) entered into a lease agreement to lease a 100% interest in 45 mining claims covering approximately 2,000 acres in Lander County, Nevada. The lease calls for NRG to pay the claim owners a gross royalty of 4% on gold sales or $0.50 per yard of gravels mined, whichever is greater. NRG will be required to make annual minimum advance royalty payments of $20,000. The term of the lease is for 10 years with an option for NRG to extend the term for a further 10 years.
	On January 8, 2014, and amended on January 30th, NRG, a subsidiary of the company signed a sub-lease for ten mining claims held NRG under a lease, to permit exploration and mining for barite. The lease is for a period of 8 years. The lease, as amended, provides that NRG will receive an initial payment of $40,000, advance annual payments of $20,000 per year and provides for royalty payments to the NRG of $2.00 per yard of processed barite. The rights under the lease exclude any recovery of gold mineralizations. The lease requires the lease holder to provide bonding and other regulatory deposits in respect of its mining activities to satisfy state and federal requirements and indemnification of the Company for breaches of the lease. The lease is subject to the over-lease held by NRG, and NRG is required to pay the holder of the over-lease $10,000 per year plus $0.50 per yard of barite processed.
	The following is a schedule by years of future minimum lease payments required under operating leases that have initial or remaining non-cancellable lease terms in excess of one year as of March 31, 2014:
	Year ended	Total
	31-Dec-14	$	40,000

	For the three months ended March 31, 2014 and in 2013, there were no gold sales. In prior years, all gold sales were made to two refineries. Many refineries are available with similar pricing and the refineries were chosen for convenience.
	Revenue is derived primarily from the sale of only one product – gold. Should the market for gold become unavailable and or the value of gold becomes significantly decreased, the Company could experience severe negative impact.

Legal Proceedings	'
	NOTE 13 – LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
	On July 12, 2013, Nevada Rae Gold, Inc. was sued by Cashman Equipment Company for approximately $56,000 in past due equipment rentals in Clark County, Nevada, Case number A-13-685083-C. The Company believes that the amounts in question are overstated and did not apply appropriate credits. At March 31, 2014 the company was in the process of settlement negotiations in order to avoid significant legal fees. See Note 15.
	On November 6, 2013, Nevada Rae Gold, Inc. was sued by Liberty Mutual for approximately $15,000 in past due insurance premiums in Clark County, Nevada, Case number A-13-690844-C. The Company believes these premiums to be erroneously charged by Liberty Mutual not properly classifying the employees of the Company. In March 2014, the Company has settled this case for an amount of $11,500 in order to avoid significant legal fees.
	A subsidiary of the Company, Nevada Rae Gold, Inc., has an outstanding tax obligation to the Internal Revenue Service. The IRS has asserted that approximately $300,000 is owed at this time. The IRS has filed a general lien on all the properties of Nevada Rae, and is taking steps to enforce the liens and collect the funds owed. The enforcement actions will include seeking and taking any funds that are in the company’s bank accounts, causing any persons owing funds to Nevada Rea to direct the funds to the IRS, and taking possession of assets of Nevada Rae and selling them. These actions would be disruptive to the operations of the Company and the subsidiary and may impair the ability of Nevada Rae to operate. In that event, Nevada Rae will be unable to generate any revenues and the financial position of the Company will be severely impaired and the Company may have to curtail its subsidiary’s operations or put the subsidiary into receivership. See Note 15.

Going Concern	'
Going Concern	'
	NOTE 14 – GOING CONCERN
	The Company’s financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. As of March 31, 2014, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $44,862,459, negative working capital of $210,195, and negative cash flows from the three months ended March 31, 2014 of $188,260, raising substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. During the three months ended March 31, 2014, the company financed its operations through the sale of securities, proceeds received from sale of mining claims, and issuance of debt.
	Management’s plan to address the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern includes obtaining additional funding from the sale of the Company’s securities and establishing revenues. Although management believes that it will be able to obtain the necessary funding to allow the Company to remain a going concern through the methods discussed above, there can be no assurances that such methods will prove successful. Should we be unsuccessful, the Company may need to discontinue its operations.

Accounting Policies (Policies)	3 Months Ended
	Mar. 31, 2014
Accounting Policies [Abstract]	'
Basis of Presentation	'
	Basis of Presentation
	These consolidated financial statements and related notes are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, and are expressed in U.S. dollars. The Company’s fiscal year-end is December 31.
Principle of Consolidation	'
	Principle of Consolidation
	The consolidated financial statements include all of the accounts of Pacific Gold Corp., its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Nevada Rae Gold, Inc., and Fernley Gold, Inc., and its majority – owned subsidiary, Pacific Metals Corp. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
Reclassification of Accounts	'
	Reclassification of Accounts
	Certain accounts in the prior period have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.
Use of Estimates and Assumptions	'
	Use of Estimates and Assumptions
	The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect (i) the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, (ii) the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities known to exist as of the date the consolidated financial statements are published, and (iii) the reported amount of net sales, expenses and costs recognized during the periods presented. Adjustments made with respect to the use of estimates often relate to improved information not previously available. Uncertainties with respect to such estimates and assumptions are inherent in the preparation of consolidated financial statements; accordingly, actual results could differ from these estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents	'
	Cash and Cash Equivalents
	The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. At March 31, 2014, and December 31, 2013, cash includes cash on hand and cash in the bank.
Revenue Recognition	'
	Revenue Recognition
	Pacific Gold recognizes revenue from the sale of minerals when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, services have been rendered, the sales price is fixed or determinable, and collection is reasonably assured, which is determined when it places a sale order of gold from its inventory on hand with the refinery.
Accounts Receivable/Bad Debt	'
	Accounts Receivable/Bad Debt
	The allowance for doubtful accounts is maintained at a level sufficient to provide for estimated credit losses based on evaluating known and inherent risks in the receivables portfolio. Management evaluates various factors including expected losses and economic conditions to predict the estimated realization on outstanding receivables. As of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, there was no allowance for bad debts.
Inventories	'
	Inventories
	Inventories are stated at the lower of average cost or net realizable value. Costs included are limited to those directly related to mining.
Property and Equipment	'
	Property and Equipment
	Property and equipment are valued at cost. Additions are capitalized and maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Gains and losses on dispositions of equipment are reflected in operations. Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which are 2 to 10 years.
Mineral Rights	'
	Mineral Rights
	All mine-related costs, other than acquisition costs, are expensed prior to the establishment of proven or probable reserves. Reserves designated as proven and probable are supported by a final feasibility study, indicating that the reserves have had the requisite geologic, technical and economic work performed and are legally extractable at the time of reserve determination. Once proven or probable reserves are established, all development and other site-specific costs are capitalized.
	Capitalized development costs and production facilities are depleted using the units-of-production method based on the estimated gold which can be recovered from the ore reserves processed. There has been no change to the estimate of proven and probable reserves. Lease development costs for non-producing properties are amortized over their remaining lease term if limited. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred.
Intangible Assets	'
	Intangible Assets
	The Company’s subsidiary Pacific Metals Inc. has acquired a mining claims database which is being amortized over its estimated useful life of ten years using the straight-line method.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets	'
	Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
	The Company reviews the carrying value of its long-lived assets annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the historical cost-carrying value of an asset may no longer be appropriate. Pacific Gold assesses recoverability of the carrying value of the asset by estimating the undiscounted future net cash flows, which depend on estimates of metals to be recovered from proven and probable ore reserves, and also identified resources beyond proven and probable reserves, future production costs and future metals prices over the estimated remaining mine life. If undiscounted cash flows are less than the carrying value of a property, an impairment loss is recognized based upon the estimated expected future net cash flows from the property discounted at an interest rate commensurate with the risk involved. If the future net cash flows are less than the carrying value of the asset, an impairment loss is recorded equal to the difference between the asset’s carrying value and fair value.
	The fair value of an asset retirement obligation is recognized in the period in which it is incurred if a reasonable estimate of fair value can be made. The present value of the estimated asset retirement costs is capitalized as part of the carrying amount of the long-lived asset. For Pacific Gold, asset retirement obligations primarily relate to the abandonment of ore-producing property and facilities.
	We review the carrying value of our interest in each group of mineral claims owned by our subsidiaries on an annual basis to determine whether impairment has incurred in the claim value. We evaluate the mineral claim values based on one of four criteria; cash flow projection, geological reports, asset sale and option agreements, and comparative market analysis including public market value. Where information and conditions suggest impairment, we write-down these properties to the lowest estimated value based on our evaluation criteria. Our estimate of gold price, mineralized materials, operating capital, and reclamation costs are subject to risks and uncertainties affecting the recoverability of our investment in property, plant, and equipment. Although we have made our best estimate of these factors based on current conditions, it is possible that changes could occur in the near term that could adversely affect our estimate of net cash flows expected to be generated from our operating properties and the need for possible asset impairment write-downs.
	Where estimates of future net operating cash flows are not available and where other conditions suggest impairment, we assess if carrying value can be recovered from net cash flows generated by the sale of the asset or other means.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments	'
	Fair Value for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities
	The Company follows paragraph 825-10-50-10 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) for disclosures about fair value of its financial instruments and paragraph 820-10-35-37 of the FASB ASC (“Paragraph 820-10-35-37”) to measure the fair value of its financial instruments. Paragraph 820-10-35-37 establishes a framework for measuring fair value in U.S. GAAP, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. To increase consistency and comparability in fair value measurements and related disclosures, Paragraph 820-10-35-37 establishes a fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. The three levels of fair value hierarchy defined by Paragraph 820-10-35-37 are described below:
	Level 1      Quoted market prices available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date.
	Level 2      Pricing inputs other than quoted prices in active markets included in Level 1, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date.
	Level 3      Pricing inputs that are generally observable inputs and not corroborated by market data.
	The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities, such as cash and accounts payable approximate their fair values because of the short maturity of these instruments.
Income Taxes	'
	Income Taxes
	In accordance with ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes, Pacific Gold recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities based on differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities using the enacted tax rates and laws that are expected to be in effect when the differences are expected to be recovered. Pacific Gold provides a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets for which it does not consider realization of such assets to be more likely than not.
Loss per Share	'
	Loss per Share
	The basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted net loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss adjusted on an “as if converted” basis, by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus potential dilutive securities. For the year ended March 31, 2014 potential dilutive securities had an anti-dilutive effect and were not included in the calculation of diluted net loss per common share.
Advertising	'
	Advertising
	The Company’s policy is to expense advertising costs as incurred.
Environmental Remediation Liability	'
	Environmental Remediation Liability
	The Company has posted a bond with the State of Nevada in the amount required by the State of Nevada equal to the maximum cost to reclaim land disturbed in its mining process. The bond requires a quarterly premium to be paid to the State of Nevada Division of Minerals. The Company is current on all payments. Due to its investment in the bond and the close monitoring of the State of Nevada, the Company believes that it has adequately mitigated any liability that could be incurred by the Company to reclaim lands disturbed in its mining process.
Convertible Debentures	'
	Convertible Debentures
	Convertible debt is accounted for under ASC 470, Debt – Debt with Conversion and Other Options. The Company records a beneficial conversion feature (BCF) related to the issuance of convertible debt that have conversion features at fixed or adjustable rates that are in-the-money when issued and records the fair value of warrants issued with those instruments. The BCF for the convertible instruments is recognized and measured by allocating a portion of the proceeds to warrants and as a reduction to the carrying amount of the convertible instrument equal to the intrinsic value of the conversion features, both of which are credited to paid-in-capital. The Company calculates the fair value of warrants issued with the convertible instruments using the Black-Scholes valuation method, using the same assumptions used for valuing employee options for purposes of following ASC Topic 718, except that the contractual life of the warrant is used. Under these guidelines, the Company allocates the value of the proceeds received from a convertible debt transaction between the conversion feature and any other detachable instruments (such as warrants) on a relative fair value basis. The allocated fair value is recorded as a debt discount or premium and is amortized over the expected term of the convertible debt to interest expense. For a conversion price change of a convertible debt issue, the additional intrinsic value of the debt conversion feature, calculated as the number of additional shares issuable due to a conversion price change multiplied by the previous conversion price, is recorded as additional debt discount and amortized over the remaining life of the debt.
	The Company accounts for modifications of its Embedded Conversion Features in accordance with ASC 470-50, Debt – Modifications and Exchanges, which requires the modification of a convertible debt instrument that changes the fair value of an embedded conversion feature and the subsequent recognition of interest expense or the associated debt instrument when the modification does not result in a debt extinguishment pursuant to ASC 470-50-40, Debt – Modification and Exchanges – Extinguishment of Debt.
Derivative Liability Related to Convertible Notes	'
	Derivative Liability Related to Convertible Notes
	The derivative liability related to convertible notes and warrants arises because the conversion price of the Company’s convertible notes is discounted from the market price of the Company’s common stock. Thus, the number of shares that may be issued upon conversion of such notes is indeterminate, which gives rise to the possibility that the Company may not be able to fully settle its convertible note and warrant obligations by the issuance of common stock.
	The derivative liability related to convertible notes and warrants is adjusted to fair value as of each date that a note is converted or a warrant is exercised, as well as at each reporting date, using the Black-Scholes pricing model. Any change in fair value between reporting dates that arises because of changes in market conditions is recognized as a gain or loss. To the extent the derivative liability is reduced as a consequence of the conversion of notes or the exercise of warrants, such reduction is recognized as additional paid-in capital as of the conversion or exercise date.
Stock Based Compensation	'
	Stock Based Compensation
	The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC Topic 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation which requires that the fair value compensation cost relating to share-based payment transactions be recognized in the consolidated financial statements. Share-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date, based on the fair value of the award, and is recognized over the employee’s requisite service period, which is generally the vesting period. The fair value of the Company’s stock options is estimated using a Black-Scholes option valuation model.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements	'
	Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
	The Company does not expect the adoption of any other recently issued accounting pronouncements to have a significant impact on its results of operations, financial position or cash flow.

Leasing arrangements, description	'On January 8, 2014, and amended on January 30th, NRG, a subsidiary of the company signed a sub-lease for ten mining claims held NRG under a lease, to permit exploration and mining for barite. The lease is for a period of 8 years. The lease, as amended, provides that NRG will receive an initial payment of $40,000, advance annual payments of $20,000 per year and provides for royalty payments to the NRG of $2.00 per yard of processed barite. The rights under the lease exclude any recovery of gold mineralizations. The lease requires the lease holder to provide bonding and other regulatory deposits in respect of its mining activities to satisfy state and federal requirements and indemnification of the Company for breaches of the lease. The lease is subject to the over-lease held by NRG, and NRG is required to pay the holder of the over-lease $10,000 per year plus $0.50 per yard of barite processed.	'	'In 2011, Nevada Rae Gold ("NRG") entered into a lease agreement to lease a 100% interest in 45 mining claims covering approximately 2,000 acres in Lander County, Nevada. The lease calls for NRG to pay the claim owners a gross royalty of 4% on gold sales or $0.50 per yard of gravels mined, whichever is greater. NRG will be required to make annual minimum advance royalty payments of $20,000. The term of the lease is for 10 years with an option for NRG to extend the term for a further 10 years.	'The Company has leased approximately 440 acres of privately owned land adjacent to its staked prospects from Corporate Creditors Committee LLC, by lease dated October 1, 2003. The Company paid an advance royalty of $7,500 for the first year, which amount is increased by $2,500 in each of the next five years to be $20,000 in the sixth year. For the last four years of the lease, the advance royalty is $20,000 per year. If the lease is renewed, the annual advance royalty is $20,000. The advance royalty is credited to and recoverable from the production rental amounts. The royalty is the greater of a 4% net smelter royalty or $0.50 per yard of material processed.
