I know that in general gold is found with iron gossan or quartz. This could be limonite, hematite, and also iron rich black sand.
I've seen a few pictures of gold in quartz which is also common in Georgia. I've found some iron rich areas in Columbia County that also contain some quartz. Most of the iron ore is gossan meaning it is rotton/crumbly.
This area is about 10 miles south of any gold found in Columbia/McDuffie/Lincoln Counties.
Maybe I need to invest in a pan.
