chrisski Posted April 24, 2016 Share Posted April 24, 2016 Looks awesome, especially for someone used to dry washing in the deserts of AZ. If you don't mind, if you could say at least what state you're in, not the lat long to the creek, but get us a general idea of where you're at, that would be nice.

chrisski Posted April 24, 2016 Share Posted April 24, 2016 Would be nice to see some pictures of Pennsylvania gold or gems. Even if you're out there and just found a couple of specs, that would be appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steel Pan Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 First thought when I saw your pic was, "I'd sure like to check out the material at the bottom of that waterfall.". Nice bedrock! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm real close to Conneaut lake pa. glacier gold and diamond .....nice video brother Thanks.. As I'd said, it's the best Au (vid or otherwise) I've ever seen from PA.. Nice of the guy to identify the stream too.. I had no idea there was more than just fly poo to be found.. As a matter of coincidence, I grew up about 20 miles W of the other end of I-79 in PA -- a bit shy of 40 mi NNW of downtown Morgantown, WV and about 60 mi SSE of the Rt 51 entrance to the Liberty Tubes.. No gold where I grew up, just coal near by, lots and lots of coal.. More coincidence, referring to something fred said, is years ago I read in some sort of geologic report, and that is the only place I've ever seen this mentioned, is there's a lamproitic pipe over in Green County.. My best guess is it's located somewhere between Masontown - Paisley.. Is it diamondiferous..? Who knows..? I'd sure like to have the opportunity to find out though.. The Appalacia's are sooo old and worn down even the thought of long ago volcanic activity in the region was never a real consideration in my past.. Caution: Decepticons at play..
