I think it was California well during the 1800 in goldmines. Maine, New Hampshire, Rhode Island and Vermont could be candidates, but the quantities were very small and no significant mining was done. (Gold, as it turns out, can be found in most all of the fifty stated, but, again, the concentrations are not significant.) The Georgia gold rush in 1829 preceded the California gold rush by almost 20 years.

∙ 14y agoGold has been discovered in many countries. One of the main ones was New Zealand. During the early years, gold was discovered in Otago and that was the main center of attention for immigrants. Many chinese, scottish and others migrated to New Zealand in hope of finding gold. If they did, they were able to send the money they earned from it back home and support their families.

Who discovered the element platinum?
The first writings describing Platinum were in 1557 by Italian Julius Caesar Scaliger (not 1735 as listed in many places online). The new metal was further observed during an expedition of New Grenada (now known as Colombia) by Antonio de Ulloa and Don Jorge Juan y Santacilia in 1735. Their writings related to this expedition refer to the new metal as Platinum.
Facts about platinum?
Platinum is a metallic element with the chemical symbol Pt and an atomic number of 78. Its name is derived from the Spanish term platina del Pinto, which is literally translated into "little silver of the Pinto River." It is a dense, malleable, ductile, precious, gray-white transition metal. Platinum is one of the rarest elements in the Earth's crust and has an average abundance of approximately 0.005 mg/kg. It occurs in some nickel and copper ores along with some native deposits, mostly in South Africa, which accounts for 80% of the world production. Some counterfeiters in the late 1500's made coins in South America from platinum that resembled silver coins (at the time platinum was unknown and not valued) The authorities confiscated the coins, set them on a ship out to sea in the Pacific and scuttled the ship. It sank in an unknown location. Today that trove of platinum would be very valuable.
