“In the shallow streams and creek beds of Brown County, a new gold rush is going on. Outdoorsy types have taken to the water in search of flakes of natural gold left behind millions of years ago. No one is hitting the mother lode or striking it rich. But for modern-day Indiana prospectors, panning for gold is a chance to be outside, gather with like-minded friends and experience the thrill of finding buried treasure. Dozens of members of the Gold Prospectors Association of America gathered in the bends of Salt Creek, hunched over the water. Some of them used hand-held pans to sift through the bed of the stream.”
