No clue. Probably not here in the flatlands where I reside.

I know they use to meet in West Fork and they have outings every month.

I don't of any suitable areas to pan for gold. There was a gold mining operation in Rogers,AR.

Traces of gold were found, but the operation failed. That's about all I know about gold in Arkansas.

Here's a link about the Kruse gold mine in Rogers.

Also went with the GPAA down near Evansville and found very small color there. It seems that the most color is being found along and in the Arkansas and its tribs.

Yawp! If you are in or near the Rogers, Bentonville area you may find some in the nearby streams . Very small Like fine ground pepper.
