Looking for gold in maryland

[Jeff-from-md]

I live in the upper right corner of Maryland Right on the pa line. I have been poking around streams here 1 bucket at a time. Can anyone around here give me any ideas of a place that might hold some color. I have 2 sluice boxes a bunch of pans and 2 metal detectors. any help would be greatly appreciated. I have 4 kids and we want to get out and find some Gold. Thanks

This shows historic mines according to the USGS...a good general guide.

Note the one in central Baltimore was not a mine, it was a refinery

They say you can find gold in just about every creek or river in DC. I have a business trip in April to DC. I will give urban prospecting one hell of a shot

After some cursory research, I have found that any kind of creek/stream/river prospecting on State Land (parks and such) is illegal with no possibility of acquiring a permit. I would love to get some response to private land activities and where one can go in Maryland to do that.
