The Gold Prospectors of Colorado (GPOC) was founded around 1974 as a non-profit organization for recreational gold prospectors in the Colorado area. Our membership at any given time has over 400 members located across the Front Range, the nation, and even the world! The GPOC offers small scale miners a public forum in which to talk about common interests. Members are able to discuss the latest technology in prospecting, listen to guest speakers, and have the access to tips and tricks at our monthly meetings in Colorado Springs. 

   GPOC is committed to educating the general public on gold prospecting and the science behind gold deposits and recovery.  The Club co-sponsors learning activities with the Colorado Museum of Mining and Industry, conducts outings at Bureau of Land Management locations, and sponsors the annual Colorado State Gold Panning Championship.

    We encourage you to browse through our website and consider joining us at an upcoming meeting.
