Loved the video! Very neat and interesting! Thanks for sharing!
Appreciate you watching
Nice!!!! I enjoyed learning and watching my friend . Thanks for sharing
Thank you for watching. I really appreciate you.
Just found your channel, great video
Thank you for stopping by, means a lot.
Well done on the finds amazing
If you can find them there might be nuggets the size of Idaho baker potatoes in Australia.
Another AU-some video m8! Cheers, Heidi n Conan
Nice I’m from Indiana also and I love to dredge for gold in the summer
Very satisfying could watch this for hours
That will put a smile 😀 on your face
More RockHunter Grandson! Start em young!
Lindsay G. That’s right! I’m sure he’ll be in another video soon.
That's awesome! Where exactly did you say that creek was? Lol. Good stuff brother
It’s north of Indy ;)
How far north of indy and is there easy access@RockHunterMark
It’s a branch or feeder creek of Sugar creek
Salut!
What a treat! ....it is amazing how finding a few flakes of that stuff will put such a smile upon one's face! Looks like a choice spot, the stream composition and terrain seem most inviting! Gose Creek in both Morgan Monroe and Yellowood Forests can prove to be quite productive, along with Gold and Sycamore Creeks a few miles further north and west near Bradford Woods.... though you might be up towards Lafayette or Delphi. The Wabash, Eel, Wildcat, Mill, Tippecanoe, and Sugar Creek hold gold that side of Indy as well. Similarly, stretches of Big and Little Raccoon, Deer, and Sugar to the west are fine for working! ....but I will let on to my favorite stream that no one has hardly whispered or mentioned, except for the excellent smallmouth, spotted and rock bass angling; White Lick is a hidden gem, especially near unto where Abner Creek joins her western branch. I knew you are an avid artifact hunter, could have and probably should have assumed you also dabbled in prospecting as well!
....but don't just about all of us like combing the creeks, fields, and woods for whatever catches in our eyes, hoping some souvenir might turn up? Take Care My Friend!
It’s near Sugar creek
Awesome!!!
Check out crooked creek
Nice results in that creek!
Thanks. Can’t wait to go back.

There's a lot of gold in the white river. Some nice flakes
Sounds wonderful.
@@RockHunterMark maybe one of these days we can get together for a channel collaboration.
Sure! Let’s do a collab video sometime.
would you be willing to teach me the tricks of the trades i live in indianapolis
It’s great you are interested in gold panning. When in Indiana, I’m on someone’s private property and I can’t bring anyone else per the agreement. Thank you for watching and commenting, I appreciate you.
Be careful...you might start the Rush of '20
Rockhounding USA good one 😆
Hello from Muncie, Indiana.
I’m guessing the gold isn’t down this far south? Ie: Muncie.
It’s from the sugar creek area near.Crawfordsville
Really. Hmm, I never would have guessed.
Godspeed Sir.
well done
We had a lot of fun thanks for watching
@@RockHunterMark yup . I love the adventure and exploration . It is fun .
Not exactly Gold Rush but, not bad Mark👍🏻
Rockhunter62 Parker would be proud 🤣
RockHunter Mark. Indeed he would👍🏻
Wayne County nolonfork east whitewater river found waterfall spring wood park and by Monroe lake clear creek also a big rock hit my truck while star gazing on dead end rd by the lake230 am scared shit out of me
Thanks for making the video! I’ve had gold fever for about a year now (I’ve been doing a lot of research), my plan was to make a trip out west because I didn’t think IN really had gold, but you’ve shown that’s not the case. I’m just curious and would like your advice, I know a lot of people go down to Brown county to pan, but in a comment below you mentioned “north of Indy”. I don’t wish to find your spots, but just get a better understanding of the state’s potential. I live in West Lafayette and a friend near Logansport, do you think it’s worth prospecting that far north if we found similar terrain, or would it be best to make the trip down further south? Thank you so much!
Sugar creek is a good area, if you can find a place to go there. It’s hard to find a lot but there is definitely some in Indiana. Look for creeks with glacial cobble.
RockHunter Mark I appreciate the reply and the advice, thank you! Take care and best of luck
I thought sugar creek. It runs up through illinois too.
You the man RHM! Find any points on this trip?
John Sharp nothing .... this creek doesn’t have flint. It’s mostly sandstone and granite. But I still keep my eye out! Thanks for watching.
Can anyone tell me what this is? It is on bedrock in the White River. If I can send a picture, if not it is rectangular with a hole in the center and and a spot from the whole to the end on the small end.??
Can't send a picture, sorry
That is interesting and informative RH. I live in Morgan county Indiana. Had a retired Alaska gold miner tell me a long time ago that Morgan county had the largest gold deposit than any other county in the state. A place out side Martinsville called Bradford Woods was a gold camp in the 1800s.
I've never tried panning. I'm an arrowhead guy and a metal detector sometimes. I got a friend that panned 17 grams in 9 months. He said he worked hard at it to get that. I was at my gold buyers saleing a gold bracelet I found with a detector and a guy and his son was trading in 25 grams on a new slueth pump dredge. They found it in a year's time. In Morgan,Owen and Brown county's. No doubt it can be found around here,but I think a person would work thier self to death before they ever got rich from it. I did see a post that a panner got I think a 4 pennywieght nugget.
First I ever seen come from here. Finding them everyday might be worth working a way to an early grave. It's rare they come around though.
Thanks for sharing. That was a fun post.
Good luck.
Very interesting! You’re absolutely right, you can’t really make money in gold in the Midwest. I enjoy doing it and sometimes buy flakes and set up sand with it to teach kids to pan at a summer camp. They really get a kick out of it. I appreciate you taking the time to watch and comment. Happy Hunting!
Where in owen county?
@@johnhamlin6000 Oh yes! Wouldn't want a job painting it;but it's a small world. I lived between Gossport and Lewisville on Ellis Lake rd for 6 years. I loved Own county. A lot of my kinda people out there.
@@johnhamlin6000 The gold panner wouldn't give up his spots.
I live over by Mounds State Park and know some good creek's over here
That sounds great happy hunting
This is cool because I live in indiana
The gold is there in Indiana because the glaciers during the last ice age brought it down from the north in Canada.
What are your thoughts on blue clay and gold
It’s hard to get the gold out of the blue clay. I don’t know a fast way to do it.
@@RockHunterMark ok.... but enough that grand kids can pan and have fun? Lol
Hola buddy
Hi Jeff! 😁
