Goldvein, Virginia 9328 4
Started by ewbragg
Hi Everybody. My name is Ed, and I've been into gold prospecting for the past 3 years. It all started from my interest in gold when I moved to Virginia in 2000 and found out our property is right in the middle of the Gold Belt of Virginia. Within a 2 mile radius, there are listed 18 old mines. I also happen to have a nice creek that starts up at one of the old mines and runs through my property. I've gone down a few times and tried panning in the creek, with no luck yet. We also have tons of red...

Old Mining Guide 172 3
Started by sennelh@yahoo.com
Looking for a claim that was in an old issue of mining guide. Don't remember the exact year. Around 1992 or 1994 there was a claim in Georgia that was Army Corp of Engineers as lead title of claim. Small creek that had a dam across it at bridge. My first flake of gold was here. My stepson is interested in seeing that claim. Trying to get him interested in prospecting and showing him place where I found my first would make his day. Thanks Lennes Hebert Abbeville, La.

Looking for experienced prospector/s in Virginia that would like to teach me alittle bit. I have a small dredge 1'1/2. Panning kit and 2 sluices.

Looking for fellow prospectors in my area (Humboldt, Trinity and Siskiyou counties). Go out alone a lot to the claims in those areas and after a few encounters with bears it would be nice to have another set of eyes lol. Even if schedules can not line up to go as a group then it would be cool just to meet like minded people who have that gold fever. bnb.prospectinggmail.com instagram: doctorofdevils
