I own land. Need advice

[Isitreal]

Hello all!
Not sure which section this belongs in but I hope I get some feedback here. I recently inherited land in Georgia and for generations the land has just sat there. I want to prospect or do a trial test of the land to see if it has any potential for gold recovery. I was just looking for a little info on whethere there is gold in the area or how to start prospecting the land. I know there was a huge gold rush in dahlonega and further north but how about further south? Thanks for reading!

Sounds like a question for a nugget specific forum. This forum is mostly read and posted on by coin/relic guys.

Get your hands on a geological survey map of the area

Or.... you can do what I would do

Odds are there is no gold in them dar hills, but it wouldn't hurt to start your own rumor and wait a year and sell the land for top dollar

Spart you forgot you have to salt the place a little first

If you draw a line from Dahlonega down towards Lineville area of alabama if you are south of the line much lower chance and north of the line at least a chance and worth looking. Look for areas which could concentrate the gold eg old creeks.

Gold is where you find it. No, really.
