Although gold mines are spread over much of Oregon, almost all of the gold produced has come from two principal areas: the Klamath Mountains in southwest Oregon, including Coos, Curry, Douglas, Jackson and Josephine counties; and the Blue Mountains in northeast Oregon, mostly in Baker and Grant counties.Oregon has fantastic opportunities for gold prospecting. The vast majority of the gold production in this state has come from two regions; the Eastern Oregon gold best that covers the Northeast part of the state, and gold bearing region of Southwest Oregon above the California border. Significant amounts of public land provide ample opportunities for gold mining in both areas.
