I've been prospecting for over 40 years off and on and I still end up with a puzzled look on my face every now and then! Like the original post said, just trying to start some talk for local folks like you and me . Who knows, we may all learn something and meet some new friends and partners in high crimes !

It's just a little ole creek about 3 feet wide in the water. I'll take you up there sometime when deer season ends.

I live south of Mauldin and enjoy all types of prospecting and treasure hunting. Would love to find some partners to go with. P.S. I am still a beginner and always trying to learn something new.

I'm in the Spartanburg area. Any good ideas on where to prospect? I'm new and have found about 10 flakes and 4 pieces that are alot bigger than flakes but smaller than pickers. I just started about a month ago. I was wondering if I should keep trying the creek where I've been or if anyone else had any places locally that would be better.

If you've found some decent gold at the creek you're at , keep at it. I know there's some good spots in Spartanburg county but just saying Spartanburg covers a lot of area. Message me and I can give you one good place I know of.

JW , there's not many of us from the upstate on TNet it seems. We all need to get together sometime soon and pool our resources.
