Gold Prospecting & Recovery Workshop

Discover the Ultimate Gold Prospecting Workshop in Historic Goldfields.

The Gold Prospecting & Recovery Workshop is a two-hour, hands-on field experience designed to teach participants how to locate, detect, process, and recover gold using real prospecting equipment and proven methods.

Participants will learn how gold behaves in different environments, how to identify potential gold-bearing areas, and how to choose the correct recovery method based on soil conditions — skills that can be used well beyond the workshop.
