My Research Shows the following Places to Find Gold Nuggets

There are many states in the U.S. where you can use pans, sluices,dry washers, suction dredges and metal detectors to find gold nuggets. Most of the western states and some places in the Southeast have produced nice gold nuggets over the years. Below is Arizona that have not only been some of the most historically rich mining states, but also places where gold nuggets are still found on a regular basis.

It’s getting that time of your things are cooling off. At the record breaking gold prices many folks are taking a good look. Good luck. 

Arizona

Arizona is probably the most popular state for nuggetshooting in the U.S. This is primarily due to the fact that there are so many areas that produce gold nuggets and there is good detectable ground where bedrock is shallow.

There are many professional miners who spend the winter season metal detecting in Arizona. I know several folks who successfully find over a pound of gold in Arizona every year with metal detectors and drywashers.

The best counties to find gold nuggets in Arizona are Mohave, Cochise, Gile, Yuma,Yavapai, and Maricopa counties, Also Norht, South, East and West of Quartz Site but nearly any place in Arizona has potential for finding nuggets.
