Where Can I Find Gold In Michigan (Prospecting Map Review)
Where Can I Find Gold In Michigan (Prospecting Map Review)
Where is Gold Found in Michigan? This is a tour of Michigan gold mines using the same USGS custom maps as I show in Government Gold Maps (GGM) Here: https://SourdoughMiner.com/ggm/ for more about where and how you can find gold in Michigan.
My father left me 400 Acres just outside of Painesdale, but the wolves and bigfoots scared the shit out of me so I stopped going there. It’s not worth it and the snow doesn’t melt until May. It’s shitty property. If you’ve ever been face to face with wolves it will change your life. They treed me, they had me trapped in a tree screaming for help like a little girl. An ape showed up and scared them off. I haven’t been back since
Western UP is not flat. porquepine mountains.
nice mapping but are there public beach mining in Michigan on Lake superior to go to on a vacation trip to get that flour gold or gpaa claims in those areas. and thank you for sharing.
I find gold in almost every water way in SW Michigan Niles. Right on Michigan Indiana border. Very fine gold
some gold mines are serval hundred feet deep . the rope mine was several miles long.and real deep,
Any info on the lake bed in Superior?
Yes ! I found my rock from a gravel delivery to my drive way. Lots of the rocks have gold.
Some of the silver rocks could be platinum?
Would like to send to you, to check mine.
In the gravel pits.
Found gold nugget in south Boardman mixed with a little stone 1.6 oz hell yeah
So who here has the record for the biggest nugget?
I have several copper nuggets. Handed down from grandpa. โค๏ธ
I’m in the straits area. No gold here. It’s all limestone.
Awesome information. Great video ๐๐ช๐
I found a bunch of what looks like gold very fine flakes would flower gold maybe
What map system are you using?
Anywhere there is gold here the whole area is licensed and illegal to pan the rivers. They will notice and the union will pounce.
There’s gold in western Michigan ๐
Alaskan earthquakes
So some spots along Lake Michigan have had black sand deposits on the beaches. Could there be gold there too?
Copper prospecting in the Keweenaw Peninsula Michigan, copper in pure nugget form is easy to find, a metal detector would be like shooting fish in a barrel. Not as valuable, but when you can find a handful or more a day it’s a lot of fun.
we’ve found gold on lake superior off north country trail rite before paradise in the back sands tonsa of black sands there
the gold copper and silver are secondary deposits from geothermal intrusions into the igneous basalt’s that were laid down in that area before the mid continent rift started to form and then was stopped with compression that folded up the edges of that basalt leaving the cracks and fissures for the intrusions to take place. then the exposed/bent upwards end of the basalt has been weathered down leaving behind valuable minerals at the surface. but because of the nature of this geology and the proximity to the water table and lakes the mines can only operate inside a specific layer. strip mines do it for far cheaper thus the closing of mines in upper Michigan.
Old timers used mercury all around the Marquette area to collect there fine gold. Yes lots of copper in the U.P.
This time its about Where is Gold In Michigan with another USGS MRDS Review. Take a look at this gold map review to see where has gold been found in Michigan. For more about how to prospect for gold see this presentation: https://SourDoughMiner.com/GDU/ This resource will help you get started panning for and recovering gold.
Makes me wonder if there would be large deposits in the depths is Superior itself?
North of Marquette on Hwy 550. You need to have "mule type" quad runner. You have to go where the roads do not exist and have never existed. It is very desolate country up there.
Hi, I’m looking to get into panning. I live in Michigan. The DNR is saying on the wet lands map, the color yellow indicated on the map is the only place you can pan. I live in Grand Rapids, so would you know if this is correct. Doesn’t leave much to pan.
Few years back i was doin some metal detecting out in the yard. Thing started beeping like crazy an said gold. Me an a buddy dug down about a foot an found a big black chunk of coal lookin thing, ran the detector over it an it started goin nuts again. We sprayed it off with the hose an started seein these big chunks of "gold" all over it.. Thought we were rich for a second, took a better look an figured out it was copper LMAO.. Not exactly sure what it was but after some Googling I’m pretty sure it was "copper ore"?? That was in Oakland county michigan. Tried busting it apart to see if there was any gold in it but didn’t find any, just lots of quarter size chunks of copper. Thought about takin it to the scrap yard lol…

Com.
I find gold in the local rivers around right live and I live in Southern Michigan in St. Joseph County
I have found traces of gold every where Iโve prospected every where in lower Michigan.
Nugets have been found around Grand Rapids in the Grand and in the Rogue.
We found gold at yellow dog falls on the yellow dog river
Rubies are more precious than Gold.
I have Flint river gold. Its everywhere. Especially in dried up creek trails, low bank curves and in the spillways. Plenty of 1/4 gram pickers around here too.
At Mud lake a guy found a 3 lb. nugget. I can put you on that line.
Wish I could show you a picture of the rocks I have.
I live in Mi. , I found some white Crystal rocks with lots of gold , it looks like gold, also some silver color looking flakes, in it it’s
Flat Crystal rock white slit layers,.
The issue being I think is. Soooo many places have had major excavation done repeatedly throughout the last few decades. Water front in most rivers and lakes. Even small channels. I actually would like to see a map of areas completely untouched by construction. Not much..
You are so wrong. Can find gold lower mi Rouge river.
I have only worked small areas of the Upper Peninsula however I have found flour gold in every river stream and Creek that I have checked from Marquette to Sault Ste. Marie. The gold is more plentiful the closer you get to Marquette in the streams creeks and rivers. Every Lake Superior beach that has any deposits of black sand I have found gold on. I have also found it on the Lake Michigan side wherever there have been black sand deposits. Sadly it’s nothing to get excited about because it’s all 100 mesh or smaller and it would take all summer and into the fall to find more than a half an ounce. So no one’s going to get rich going after it but for a retired guy like myself it gives me a reason to get out of the house and explore this beautiful area.
where can I find Gold in Far Eastern Montana?
Mackinac county is pretty much all limestone.
I like in Oakland county and with in a few miles from me the is a bunch of gravel pit mines and was wondering if it b good to look for gold here
I pull picker gold from the rogue river in Rockford and that’s near grand rapids
The one and only "registered gold mine" in the lower peninsula is shown in the thumbnail.
Definitely some black sand around whitefish point on superior.
Looking for a friend , to go with my other friends
To look for in mi. Central.
Thank you!
Can that app work with in nyc area also
My neck of the woods! ๐ Here is where Heidi and Conan Gold Prospecting looks and makes our videos! Super excited to see you look at this for us and share it! ๐๐๐
