Gold In The Creek behind the Methodist Church

[tinpan]

Evening All, Yes i may have been quiet for a while but i been busy working a large site. The Methodist Church was in the main street of area which was once a small town in its own right. Boosted 3 hotels, bakery, foundry , quartz crushing battery and 16 gold mines. Numerous Other buildings and even a water channel fed swimming pool. This nice quartz specie with about 1 gram of gold in it came from a hunt along the dried up creek bed behind the Methodist Church.

I thought that the people of old American gold prospectors existed only in the movies .... you are lucky to be able to hunt here.
Congratulations on the Gold and his return!

Great find on the gold there Tinpan, looks like you have the makings of a very good site. Have you located the area where the swimming hole was? That might be a glory hole right there for ya. Can you give us a little taste of the history of this place? How old is it? What was the population in it's hay day? You always paint a good picture of your sites and I can't wait to read your future posts and admire your new discoveries.
