Reed Gold Mine is the site of the first documented gold find in the United States. From this discovery, gold mining spread gradually to nearby counties and eventually into other southern states. The estimated value of gold recovered reached over one million dollars a year as North Carolina led the nation in gold production until 1848, when it was eclipsed by the great rush to California.We'll meet at the Food Lion on Statesville Blvd, with KSU at 9AM.
