      Why was gold mining prohibited where?

  • @staceymaxwell6357

    I had a friend who was a member of GMA (Gold Miners Association) and he wanted to make money gold mining and one place he knew about was there in Georgia, he brought home a couple of buckets that he tried to find gold but unfortunately he had gotten ill and he did find a little but when I was cleaning the house after he passed away I couldn’t find them. I believe his son had taken them. That was the one thing that got me into Gold mining, I have watched gold mining shows ever since he introduced it to me. I also like watching shows about finding gems and opal. I do miss seeing you on Gold Rush and on Lost Mines.

    I live in Indiana. For fun, I read up on gold panning and learning how to read a creek and make educated guess as where to pan. I did not become an expert, but I got to where I could find gold. It is hard work. Holding a gold pan is hard on your hands and panning all day was hard on my back and knees. I decided it wan not that much fun. I have a glass vile of gold in water that I panned. I never got rich. I never had any equipment other than a pan, a few sifting screens and a bucket. Good luck to all who go looking!

    The discovery of gold in Dahlonega led to the removal of the native Cherokee . The start of the trail of tears is relatively near . Many of the rivers in this area are still polluted with mercury . Don't eat the fish !!!

    Amazing video, A friend of mine referred me to a financial adviser sometime ago and we got talking about investment and money. I started investing with $120k and in the first 2 months , my portfolio was reading $274,800. Crazy right!, I decided to reinvest my profit and gets more interesting. For over a year we have been working together making consistent profit just bought my second home 2 weeks ago and care for my family....

      I’ve been forced to find additional sources of income as I got retrenched. I barely have time to continue trading and watch my investments since I had my second daughter. Do you think I should take a break for a while from the market and focus on other things or return whenever I have free time or is it a continuous process? Thanks.
