Chapter Meetings will be at the
Ruritan Club, here are the
directions;
On Hwy 68, heading south from
Tellico Plains, go to Coker Creek. (about 10 miles or
so) Where the post office and little shops are at,
on the corner going to the left (towards doc rogers
field) you take a right, instead... go about 1/4 mile,
and you will see a school sitting back off the road on
the left. That street going to the school, you will see
a sign for the ruritan club. Turn left towards the
school, and the ruritan club is the white building just
before the school, on your right. We use the back
section for our meetings.
I go out as many
times a year as possible, and find gold. Most of
the gold in Tennessee is small flakes and specs, but
there are also plenty of larger flakes of gold, as well as pickers
and gold nuggets.
I will try to put more
information on prospecting for gold in Tennessee, and
surrounding states on our site as time allows. Please
bookmark the page, and check back often.
I will be dredging for gold quite a bit through the fall and winter. Our store is much slower, so I will finally be able to get back into the water to find gold.
Some Basic info:
Pickers are
pieces that are large enough that you can pick them out
of your pan with your fingers. Nuggets, are of
course larger pieces that make a nice clunk in your pan
if you drop them, on up to many ounces, or pounds if you
are one of the lucky few in history.
Larger gold
is more rare, but it is able to be found once you learn
where to look, and you work hard at it. Most of
the gold in Tennessee, is along a 40 to 50 mile
wide belt going through eastern most TN., from
Georgia, North Carolina, on up towards Pigeon Forge and
toward Virginia. There is also gold in smaller
amounts farther west along I-24 south of Nashville, but
it is very elusive.
On our site, we have helpful
information for those that want to learn about
prospecting, as well as seasoned prospectors. We
have several helpful articles, some for learning, and
some just for fun. Also, links to major
prospecting sites, to help you meet up with others, if
you want to find gold, but never tried it
before. It is hard work, but it is easier, and
funner than you might think. I will be
adding more gold prospecting articles as time
allows.
We do most of our gold prospecting in the
Tellico Plains, Tn., area. Coker Creek,
Tellico river, Turkey Creek, and others. This is
the most abundant area in Tennessee that I have found, so
my prospecting efforts are mostly in this area. I
do like going to new places like Georgia, North
Carolina, and Alabama. There is also good gold
there.
In our gold store, you
will see some of the gold we have found in
Tennessee. We sell some, and we keep
some. We like to hang onto a lot of what we
find, in hopes that the price will skyrocket
again. Currently, gold is over $1,000 an ounce, but
it is expected to surpass $1500 per ounce in the future.
That would really be nice to
have a few ounces of gold, sitting back waiting for
that day!
You can see the current gold
price at the bottom of this page.
