The november meeting went great.  We had a lot of members show up, and many came from out of state, like Kentucky, Georgia, and had some visitors from Florida too. 
Thank you all for showing up to the meeting.

We had a great time after the meeting too.  A large group of us, at least 25 people, went down to the bottom end of the Coker Creek Falls, and did some prospecting.  A few pickers were found, and everyone had a great time, dispite the bad weather.

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 larger flakes of gold, as well as pickers and nuggets.  Some found recently have been quite large. 1.5 ozt.

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.

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 abundent area in Tennesee 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 $800 an ounce, but it is expected to surpass $1000 per ounce again, 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.
