Lucky strike and thermal city off I-40 near Marion are good places. Both have good gold.

Check out Crisson gold mine. Although seems they pepper their stuff quite a bit as they are a hard rock mine and not straight from dirt. Its in Dahlonega GA. Great for kids. they sell it in 5 gallon buckets, paint cans and other sizes.
