GOLD LOCATIONS IN TEXAS
The quantity of gold Texas has produced has been small, but I have found some good spots around the Llano region to run a small dredge. Private Property in Texas must be respected.
Bastrop County Texas
All Exposures of the Eocene Aged sediments appeat ot contain finely disseminated gold particles. The gold hunter must use a geological map to locate this auriferous formation.
Gazley Creek
All along Gazley Creek, in the gravel deposits of the Eocene Age, you can pan some very fine gold. I panned this creek several years back and found about 3 colors per pan average. Dig Deep.
Blanco County Texas
Walnut Creek
The area along Walnut Creek, just south of the Llano County line, in Cambrian conglomerates worked briefly in the 1890's for placer gold.
Caldwell County Texas
All Exposures of the Eocene Aged sediments appeat ot contain finely disseminated gold particles. The gold hunter must use a geological map to locate this auriferous formation.
Gillespie County Texas
UT Austin panned gold out of the Sandy below the Enchanted Rock state park, this info found in a book "The Lost San Saba Mine" by C.F. Eckardt. They panned out a couple of hundred (1974ish) dollars of gold. Also was a small mining operation in the northeastern part of the county, about 20 miles from Fredericksburg. This info from UT Bureau of Economic Geology.
Gonzales County Texas
All Exposures of the Eocene Aged sediments appeat ot contain finely disseminated gold particles. The gold hunter must use a geological map to locate this auriferous formation.
Howard County Texas
All watercourse and terrace gravel deposits have placer gold potential. Exposures of Pre-Cambrian metamorphic rocks in quartz veinlets and pegmatites have minor gold showings. You will need a geology map of the area.
Irion County Texas
Mertzon
Area exposures of iron stained, decomposed limestone has assays that show presence of minor amounts of gold.
Mason County Texas
In the north part of the county in the Mason Mountains, in the basal gravel and sand deposits of Cretaceous age, especially in the ancient valleys and channels, are possible natural concentrations of placer gold worth prospecting for.
Presidio County Texas
Shafter District
The Presidio Mine operated from 1880-1942 and was the producer of 90% of all the gold recorded in Texas. The mine was mainly a silver, lead and zinc mine with a by product of gold. Other area mines are the Chinati and Montezuma which were worked for lead and silver with a by product of gold.
Taylor County Texas
All watercourse and terrace gravel deposits have placer gold potential. Exposures of Pre-Cambrian metamorphic rocks in quartz veinlets and pegmatites have minor gold showings. You will need a geology map of the area.
Uvalde County Texas
All limestone exposures have minor gold showings.
Williamson County Texas
Georgetown
North of Georgetown 20 miles, in weathered outcrops of iron stained limestone, the assays made in 1883 showed presence of good values of gold. This is some real fine gold.
