New Prospector in VA 2390 8
Started by barlowwilliam28@gmail.com
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. Purchased some paydirt off ebay to pan at home, went up to Contrary Creek last weekend with the dredge but come up with nothing. Granted I didn't stray far from the bridge and it hadn't rained in a couple months there so water was extremely low. Did talk with a father and son out there looking for garnets. Would like to be a little closer to Roanoke if...

Northern Virginia Prospecting 256 6
Started by giammatteophilip@gmail.com
Hi all. I just moved to Virginia, Culpeper County, and only just realized that I moved to the heart of Virginia gold country. I'm looking for some prospecting partners now for some weekend fun when the weather warms up a bit. There doesn't seem to be much GPAA activity here but it looks like we have a lot of potential. If your interested lets form a posse and git some gold.

East cost greenhorn (NJ) 160 2
Started by Braddock.Chris@gmail.com
Hey all! I’m looking to connect with others in the area. I’m in South New Jersey just outside Philly. I was lucky enough to do a trip to Nome which is where I got the bug. Last year I went to the Black Hills with intents of staking a claim. That didn’t go as planned :) but I still had a great time! I’m hoping to get back there this year. In the meantime I’d like to explore wherever I could drive for weekend trips.

Goldvein, Virginia 9924 8
Started by ed@braggfamily.com
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...
