Tiny nuggets of the precious metal can be sifted from the bottoms of Indiana creeks and rivers, especially south of Indianapolis in Brown, Monroe and Morgan counties, where the streams contain leftover Ice Age glacial gravel. Self-proclaimed prospectors wryly remark that the miniscule amounts of gold to be found in a day of panning or dredging might net an average of $25 -- enough to pay for the basic equipment.
i tryed to get the full story from the indy star. but it hit the arcives and is now a pay to read. bummer i guess. places in indiana hope that persons will come to get the gold. there is not much gold but the miners bring cash to the areas. most of my spots has been in the news, and in newspapers. i have even been on a few times.
