To find gold at home you must first determine if the area where you live is in fact a gold bound area.Not all areas are gold areas just as not all areas are iron ore areas.If you know as fact that gold has been found or mined in your area then an electronic gold detector can be used by sweeping it over the area you feel might have gold in it and listen for a beeping sound.This sound indicates the presence of gold.If you dont have a detector then dig up some earth and place it into a large dished pan ,add water and swish it around so as all the loose dirt etc is washed out and the heavy particles sink to the bottom of the dish.Look for the shinning of the gold in the base of the pan as it will stand out among the rest of the debris.This is hard work but can be fun and rewarding as well with very little cash out lay.If you where to look for gold else where a gold minning licence maybe required.
