Geocache Description:

Many years ago the Day Pond area had 2 gold mines.One was rich with real gold ore and the other was just filled with fool's gold.This fun multi cache will first make you search for the real gold to find the coords for the final. Good Luck!!!! And Please do not take anything out of stage 1 there is plenty of swag in the final.

You've struck real gold! But wait, is it fools gold? How do you tell fools gold from real gold?

Back when people got struck by the gold fever, the gold rushes started. Many miners came across iron pyrite and thought it was real gold. To an over excited miner, Pyrite does have similar characteristics as real gold. Only imagine their disappointment when they realized that they had been fooled.

To avoid being tricked, make your own real gold detector and add it to your next gold mining adventure. Don't be disappointed and caught off guard by iron pyrite again.
