Not bad for 4 hours in Lancaster PA

[GLDPNR]

Keep going back to my same spot. It is a pain in the rear getting 4 feet down in this sand bar, but it gives me about 5 flakes per bucket that I sluice.

Lancaster County is tough. Have you tried up near Columbia where the volcanic rhyolite comes up in the river? It's hit or miss here in MD.

That's some chunky stuff for glacial gold. Nice!

I have never tried Columbia, but want to try Muddy Run. Problem is, it is State land.

Yeah, I have had 4 rather large flakes. I wonder if it is glacial or not? Lots of quartz but the area is really known for shale.

I found this place by reading up on the area and tons of trial and error. The same sandbar has been giving me flakes for the last four years.

Melted flakes from last year.
