Connecticut has a very rich history as a mining state, and Gold In Connecticut has a small amount of prospecting placer gold like many other New England states. Connecticut is the southernmost state in the region of the United States, bordered on the south by Long Island Sound, on the west by New York, on the north by Massachusetts, and on the east by Rhode Island
Just about any river or stream in the state of Connecticut does have some gold bearing gravel and refined gold from Alluvial placers, those formed in river or stream sediments, because gold is heavier than any of the other materials that are found in the stream it will migrate down through the gravel to either a layer of clay or bedrock. Typical locations for alluvial gold placer deposits are on the inside bends of rivers and creeks so it is rather rare to find much Gold in the middle of the stream.
