For several years Iāve prospected my area. Iāve hit nearly every creek and river in 30 miles. Mostly gravel bars as Ohio gold tends to be pretty small. I traveled up a little creek a bit further than I had in the past. Tested a gravel bar just around a sharp corner and BANG! 40-50 specks. Pan after pan itās holding strong. The largest chunky black sand, garnets and mixed iron stone and verityās mjnerals Iāve found to date.
After about 20 pans in and Iāve found this deposit is about 200ā long and as wide as 20ā. The real kicker, thereās bedrock about 3-4ā below this bar, I can see it exposed on the fast side of the river.
Freaking tickled fellers!
Iāll try and post some decent pictures once I get to doing some real work.
