Somerset County Maine

The area along Gold Brook in Chase Stream Tract township has had many old placer workings. In T5 R6 and Appleton townships there are many old placers. Along the South Branch of the Penobscot River, especially in Sandy Bay, Bald Mountain and Prentiss township there is placer gold. Also I would check out Dead River, Spencer Stream and Seven Mile Brook near West Forks. Fall and Johnson Brooks near Bingham has been reported to contain gold. The Kennebec River near Caratuk is said to contain gold.

St. Albans

The St. Albans Mine was primarily a lead mine with traces of gold.
