To tell you the truth, I am not real familiar with Kansasas far as Treasure Hunting goes, but I do know a few interesting Tid-Bits of information that might interest you and your kids. First.....the western part of the state tends to turn into rolling canyon like terrain......an ideal type of terrain to investigate for Rock Hounding and Metal Detecting. Gold, Meteorites, Arrow Heads and Bison Skeletal remains can be found in these areas. I also hear that Opal is pretty prevelant in the state. Also......you will notice that a large portion of the state is flat, except the western region near the western Kansas / Colorado state line.....it make sense to me that if any Gold or any other precious metals or minerals were to be found, just like in the mountains of Colorado, that these areas would be a good place to start. I would do a bit of research first though to make sure you don't get busted working someone else's claim though......look for public sites in and around that region. The U.S. National Geological Survey has a website that has information regarding Gold and Mineral mining claims up to 2004 which covers the entire Continental United States. And you can use it to conduct your reseach for free. Happy Hunting And I hope you and your kids have a blast. 2 out of 2 found this valuable. Do you? |
