QUARTZ AND GOLD

[bcbjim]

hi guys, havent been here in a while. went with a friend to his hunting land and it is in the gold bearing area of eastern alabama. he gave me permission to prospect on it if i wanted. there is quartz everywhere. my question is whats the rule with gold and quartz? is there always quartz where you find gold? is there always gold where you find quartz? and also where should i start looking, where the quartz is on higher ground or in the creeks( most of the creeks on the property are dry)?

any info would be greatly appreciated.

thanks, jim
