OK, so I am running a little late after lovely April 15th. Well, now I need to get back to helping you find some gold to keep the government running along with your fat taxes from the big gold you find, because I am sure that you report every single ounce you find. Oregon has [...]

Gold Mining Museums

As many of you know I’m a big believer that most of the significant gold is actually found during your research and museums are an often overlooked place to do research, particularly if you are stumped. I have found that looking at museums often give me a better feel for a project than say just [...]

Gold Mining In Idaho

admin — Thu, 25 Mar 2010 12:55:24 +0000

Idaho is another state with a history of very strong gold production over the years. Hopefully, by now it is beginning to get warm enough to do a little gold mining in Idaho. One of the problems of prospecting in Idaho is that there is not always enough water, and a good gold detector is [...]

Gold Mining In Alabama

admin — Thu, 11 Mar 2010 11:56:39 +0000

Sweet Home Alabama! Yes, there is gold to be found in Alabama. According to this document by the Geological Survey of Alabama there 49,000 ounces of gold was reported through 1939 and probably at least that much more has been mined, but not reported. This is a long document, but it’s worth your trouble to [...]

Gold Mining In Virginia

John Smith and the other founders of Jamestown came to Virginia looking for gold. They didn’t find any gold. That was too bad for them, but very good for you. There are lots of places around Virgina for amateur gold miners to prospect. The you may not find as much gold as you could [...]

Gold Mining In 2010

Like most grizzly bears this time of year I am slowly beginning to come out of my long winter hibernation. I will be posting more gold treasure maps and other good information. I think 2010 is going to be a good year for all of the part-time gold miners, because the price of gold has [...]

Arizona Gold Strike of 1988

admin — Sun, 06 Sep 2009 05:15:31 +0000

Here’s an interesting little post a gold strike in Arizona in 1988. It only about two pages, but it is an interesting little piece and if you do any prospecting out there in the desert, which was never my cup of tea, it is worth looking at. So take a look at: arizona-gold-strike-1988 Strike It [...]

California Placer Mining

admin — Mon, 31 Aug 2009 05:01:32 +0000

OK, some of my readers seem to believe that the documents I post are to obtuse for the average weekend gold miner. I don’t tend to agree because the average weekend gold miner is probably an engineer, auto mechanic, or school teacher during the week, and none of this stuff is rocket science. Also, you [...]

Alaska Gold Mining Bibliography

admin — Mon, 24 Aug 2009 05:46:25 +0000

Today I’m posting a 1997 bibliography from the US Bureau of Mines that lists all of the reports, maps, and surveys that the BM had on Alaska mining. I guess this is about the time that the Bureau of Mines was being shut down by Bill Clinton and most of the functions merged into the BLM. I’m not sure [...]

Historic California Gold Mines

California is obviously the heart of the American gold mining. The 1848 gold rush wasn’t the first or last gold rush, but it was the most important in American history. Literally thousands of gold mines with vastly different amounts of production have been established in the 161 years since then and modern prospector appreciate the [...]
