Notice the very low hilly terrain, not much in the way of terrain that would give us any indication of this amount of gold. Notice the relief compared to what we had last time when we talked about California. So let’s take a closer look at the whole picture zooming in. Virtually nothing to the southern part as it approaches Florida. There is also a chunk over here in South Carolina as well. It falls mostly in this gold line from due west of Atlanta all the way up through into the North Carolina state line. Georgia as a whole has gold, and a fair amount of it historically. But for right now, let’s take a look at Georgia because that’s what we’re focusing on. A gold line continues north on up through North Carolina. And we’re not showing gold in any of these other states, just Georgia in this map. And let’s zero in on exactly what in the world is going on here. It’s important to pay attention to these kinds of things. We’re running right across north of Atlanta, northwest to northeast, in that diagonal line. These are all gold bearing mines or finds that were found in the state of Georgia, but you can see the majority of them are here in the, in the northern section of Georgia. Atlanta is right here, but you can see right up to the state line here and we have a chunk over in this area as well, but the primary, line of activity, mining activity, goes right through this region. Here comes Georgia.ĭo you see something I see? This pattern running southwest to northeast through Georgia. Today we’re going to talk about gold in Georgia. I’m going to lead you down the road a bit to work on where gold is in different states.
