Black sand

[Christ_in_you]

Hey, I was talking to a farmer today that stripped some gravel from a creek bed. I asked to hunt arrowheads. He said know problem since he knew of me. Then he told me every year a group camps there for several days and pans gold. I cant remember the group initials , but there was a lot of them. I heard there is no gold in Arkansas, even read it. I have a stream full of black sand. Is it worth the effort to try to learn? Ray

I have found many pounds of gold where there is supposed to be none. Make the world a liar-LOOK!!John

Hey brother see if you can find a place where there is some bedrock and follow it ro a deep crack and dig the crack out. PAN THAT

If there is gold there that is where it will be.

That's really good advice! I know there's a place that looks alot like the picture that's posted... and I know there's supposed to be "no gold" here in Missouri, but I'm kinda wanting to get a pan or two and try it anyway... just to make sure. And I think there's landscape that fits your description there, OD... Hmm...

Your right GPAA. Why would they come here for a week every year? They really keep it quiet too. Tiny little signs and big RVs.

[Old Dog]

They try to keep it quiet ...

because they want you to think...

There is no gold in missouri !!!

LOL

Again, I really appreciate the advice. As soon as I get my deer, Ill try it. Ive got to go back there and lug out a rock for eBay anyway. Thanks Ray
