It took me over 32 years to find one of the coolest hobbies I have ever done! Gold panning can be one of the neatest things you can do! The first time I went panning was about 3 months ago. Me and my dad decided to go to Dahlonega, Ga for our first prospecting experience. It took about 3 hours to get there from Alabama and we were shocked!

Atlanta has spread all the way into Dahlonega and there were houses on every block. We drove around for a few minutes and finally found their empty lake. It was a great idea; people have probably never been to some areas in many years! The levels were super low and we instantly felt the importance of water.

We parked at the doc and walked down the lake side and found a really nice outcropping of Quart. We pecked around for awhile hoping to find a Gold band. We ended up walked about a mile down the lake and turned around and decided to leave. We drove east of Dahlonega and found a really nice flowing stream.

As soon as I got in the stream I could see that there were many different kinds of rock and minerals in the water. I sunk the pan in and pulled it up and let the water wash the top sand off. That is when I saw this very pretty yellow on the bottom of the pan. I screamed “I found gold!” My dad come over and he laughed and said that is fools gold. It was everywhere and if you tried to break it would crumble apart. We didn’t find any Gold but we did have a fun day and got to see a very awesome river for a short time!

If you didn’t know about gold here is a little info to get you started.

First, is a very heavy yellow metal. It has a specific gravity of 19.3 which means a quart of gold would weigh 19.3 times as much as a quart of water. As a comparison, lead has a specific gravity of about 11 so gold is almost twice as heavy as lead.

• Malleable and Ductile. It can be hammered so thin that 250,000 sheets would be one inch high! One ounce can be drawn into a wire thirty five miles long.

• Gold is never found pure in nature. It is usually alloyed with copper, silver and/or platinum.

• Gold is so heavy it will act differently than the other material. So if you pan correctly it will stay in the bottom of your Pan!

• Gold has a shiny structure and looks about the same in and out of the light.

• Not sure you if you found gold? Take a hammer and if it breaks, you’re out of luck. If it is Gold It will bend and not break!

• Not recommended for beginners -get some Nitric acid and drop it in there. If it doesn’t react then you may have Gold! Nitric acid is dangerous if it gets on you or you breathe the fumes it can hurt you! Research how to use it!

Where to find gold

1. A Stream passes through many miles of different minerals.

2. The density is ten times that of common sand! Therefore it naturally falls to the lower place in a stream.

3. A new supply can be found annually. Spring showers always wash new Gold down creek.

4. Being on the river can be a way to spend day.

5. It can be hard to get on properties these days, stick to public bridges. We do have the right of way in the streams!

6. The placer gold sometimes may lead a trail to the mother lode. If you find it you may never have to work again!

Which Streams contain gold?

There are 4 characteristics that you need to find gold!

1. The Stream can not be damned and flow freely.

2. You need to have rich mineral content in the area.

3. The creek needs enough elevation to churn in spring floods.

4. Stream path and rock formations facilitate the deposition of the dense materials (gold, lead, iron, mercury etc.)

Gold is found as the free metal and in tellurides. It is widely distributed and almost always associated with pyrite or quartz. Gold veins can be found in alluvial deposits. If you find a vein of quart peck around on it and be sure and look very good! People have found Quart rocks with gold all through it.

I have read that if you find black sand that is a great place to look for Gold! Another place to look is around a big rock or by an old log! That is where you may find a nice nugget that has been hiding for years!

Go find you a pan and plan a great get-away and go Panning Today!

International Agency asked:

There is no better way to change his life as completely change their environment. Each person there are moments in life when all you want to quit and flee, where neither be away from the problems surrounding us, where there is only love and tenderness and understanding the complete life. These thoughts come after feelings about the setbacks and separation from loved ones and probably people not only in these moments, to list all the possible causes of dissatisfaction in life is practically impossible to have every person they and their individual enough.

This article does not try to analyse all possible options suppressed his feelings and the factors shaping likely mention here about this as a signal that it was time to take their destiny into their own hands and try to change it. You can start with the exterior, changing hairstyle, and bought a new dress, but what to do if these new emotions are not long enough?

The next step is to change the social circle, extending his best, make new friends and new interests, possibly met a new love or passion experiencing lighter new man. But where to find new friends, if the world with some then declined to home and work and the ways between them. All people have long to become familiar and do not cause any emotion.

The answer is surprisingly simple to use the online dating service, is the offspring of the twenty-first century, this incredible opportunity to learn, not leaving the house, to communicate without vestiges of the past and the limitations of existing in society (well of course to a reasonable limit). Here you can present themselves prince and princess to come first, you can say about everything and always find someone who you listen, and can share their life experiences do. In the Internet more and more people find friends with similar interests merge in friendly company, and learn something new about life, or that they are interested at this time. Online communication is one of medicine, treating and distracting from the loneliness of life issues. Try to start communicating and I am sure you will like it.

Obviously, one can not do virtual dating if you are looking for life partner, but Internet dating can be used as a prelude to cronyism in real life, in a lengthy communication can understand that for people to communicate with you and whether or not to continue communicating with him . Find a new hobby or a new interlocutor can be as fast as runs flow of electrons, make your request through a worldwide network. But you started to talk and you become easier, you learn something new and interesting about life on other people acquainted with new people and now sit in anticipation of an electronic news from them about their country or place where they live. And if new friends live in another country and speak other languages, it is not a problem now, during the communication you do not notice, many dating sites offer translation services, and free.

So dating has become quite different color, already friends around the world, and if the girlfriend said that heard that somewhere something once, enough to turn to a friend at the other end of the world and find out all the details. Now we are friends with the world, and can be proud of the first-hand information. And distant alien impressed with his kindness and responsiveness.

There are sites marriage agencies, which not only allow to meet and find a bride in Russia or Ukraine, but also help you meet and confirm their feelings arose during the lengthy virtual acquaintances. Dating with Russian women would not only have positive emotions to communicate, learn a lot about other countries, but also allow you to completely change your life, succeeding ordinariness of everyday life at the new experience.

Well, now you are the father of the family, and life became more mainstream, the countdown clock are fortunate, and not before time, a new problem.

Internet communication is indeed a great opportunity to combat loneliness and anguish. Try it and I am sure you like!

Mara Mark asked:

All gold detectors are based on the same technology. Of course there are different types and models but they are all variations of the same electromagnetic technology. A magnetic field is created inside the gold detector that reacts with the magnetic field of a metal on the ground. The metal detector has the ability to convert this reaction into a signal that tells you that metal has been found on the ground.

The most important aspect of gold detectors is tuning. You have to carefully calibrate the gold detector to properly receive the signals from the ground, depending on what you are searching for. Often, this process must be performed (usually by pressing a button) every few minutes depending on the gold detector type.

Another important factor is motion. Some gold detectors require a fairly slow swinging action while others need a much quicker action. For best results you have to use the speed which is considered as optimal by the manufacturer. Carefully read the gold detector’s manual before performing any searches.

Last but not least, frequency. Most gold detectors operate in low signal frequencies between 5-10khz and 15-20khz. The reason for that is because low frequencies go deeper into the ground. If you are targeting objects like rings, coins or similar objects then low frequencies between 5-20Khz is what you need. Some multi-frequency gold detectors (which are very expensive) have appeared in the market the last few years, claiming advantages in gold detection and depth performance. In my opinion all these claims are overstated.

I’ve noticed that not a single gold detector manufacturer ever specify the detection depth of their machines. This is always confusing. The reason is that there are many things that affect the depth detection like the ground type, moisture etc. Gold detector manufacturers will not specify a specific depth range (eg. 10 meters) because another manufacturer will immediately specify a higher range (e.g. 11 meters). In my opinion gold detector depth range is almost the same for all brands of the same type.

Another half-truth is that the deeper you can go into the ground the more treasure you can find. I think that this is not the case. The deeper you go, the less you will find. If someone would burry a treasure 300 years ago how deep do you think he would dig? I think the average depth would be about 10 meters. Archeologists discovered treasures hidden for thousands of years, buried in the ground in less than 5 meters in depth.
