Ok, get this one..... A very small amount of flour gold from IL, flour & flakes from IN and a few small wanna be flakes from MO. Man, how I wish I could get to some better places with bigger/more gold. Maybe one of these days.....

Yes, maybe one of these days! Come on out this way! Take care. TTC
Yea! I found a ring that was 8 inches down. It was black. So I put it in my box. A month later I started to clean it. I thought it was a kids ring. Well as I started to clean it. I saw gold color. So I started getting excited! It turned out to be a gold ring with a 2 kt ruby on top. As soon as I learn how to post pics on here? I will put my finds on here. If someone can help me I would be thankful. I am a Newby. Lol
Alaska, Texas, Colorado, Wyoming, Washington, Oregon, and South Dakota.
Going back to dredge the Arkansas River in Colorado for 3 weeks around Labor day this year.
GREAT fishn' in Cr but HUGE bloody gators too. Nuttn' more disturbing than to rent a kayak on the White Rive in Tortugero national park and have a tour operator pull up next to ya--hold out a dead chicken about 5' outta the water for the tourists to see a gator jump and chomp it outta his hands. Mind you I'm about 5 inches out of the water and have a great pic of a massive gator cruising alongside a me just sizing up a old man dinner inches from his massive jaws--NOT COOL.

Rolling through Oregon, had to stop the Semi to take a break. Seen a pile of dirt and rocks so i started fumbling through it for prizes & found this rock.
I have found A very little amount in Illinois and a little in Indiana and am heading to California in 2 weeks I figure If I can find it in Illinois as I have then I can find it in California. The vial all the way to the left came from outside of Belleville, IL and the vial in the center left was found in Crawfordsville, IN and the vial in the middle right was found in Morgan monroe state forest in IN. the Garnets were found in all three and aren't worth anything but they are fun to look at. the vial all the way to the right is silver I found in Morgan monroe State forest in IN as-well. enjoy
