glacialgold Posted October 17, 2022 Share Posted October 17, 2022 Hi folks! Long time lurker, first time member here. I live down in the hills of south central Indiana and get to enjoy easy access to some of the better-known gold prospecting spots in the state. I've also started getting into the metal detecting hobby recently, and am really enjoying taking my Equinox 800 out to the local schools and parks, and to whatever private permissions I'm able to obtain. Can't say I'm an expert by any means, but I've booked a few pickers on the gold prospecting front and a little bit of silver on the detecting side. Looking forward to reading and learning from all the experienced posters here! 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GB_Amateur Posted October 17, 2022 Share Posted October 17, 2022 Welcome, glacialgold, from a fellow Hoosier detectorist! It can be tough sledding around here for both gold and silver, but just like everywhere if you can find the unkown (to others) locations there's still some good finds to be had. Sounds like you've found a few places which haven't been cleaned out. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jim tn Posted October 18, 2022 Share Posted October 18, 2022 Hey, welcome to a fun and informative forum. Had two stints in Ind back in my working days, one in Lafayette, and the other in Evansville. Youngest son, in fact, was born in Lafayette. Good luck with your gold and silver endeavors. HH Jim Tn 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
