Comments on Mining of Gold, Gold Prospecting, Gold Panning, Treasure Hunting and Rockhounding in Virginia

The streak of gold mines and prospecting areas in Virginia starts in Fairfax County near Washington, D.C. and trends to the southwest for about 140 miles. The gold mines and prospecting locations parallel Interstate 95 just west of Dumfries and Fredericksburg and continue southwest into Buckingham County, east of Lynchburg. Some other gold mines and prospecting areas are farther south near South Boston and in Floyd and Patrick counties.

Gold mines and prospecting locations are shown in these 15 Virginia counties:

Buckingham Culpepper Cumberland Fairfax Fauquier Floyd Fluvanna Goochland Halifax Louisa Orange Patrick Prince William Spotsylvania Stafford.

Heavy concentrations of gold mines and prospecting and panning sites are seen near Fredericksburg and Wilderness along the Rappahannock and Rapidan rivers. Another large group of mines and prospects occurs along the Fluvanna / Goochland county line.
 
Thanks all. I will keep this all in mind..have a great day
