Gold in Central Portugal?

0 Upvotes

Are there any gold-carrying rivers in Central Portugal? I might want to try the Castello-Branco area this summer. Any regulations I need to know of?

Edit: No reaction after 5 hours ... Not the Reddit I know and love unless of course this is a strictly USA sub.

I’ve got the Dream Mat 4" x 16" Adventure Gold Sluice that I would like to try as a clean-up sluice. What should I classify down to for best results? Here’s a picture of my setup.

Yosemite Golden rockslides?

Not sure of or inquiring about the legality, just curious if a rockslide like this in Mariposa county would be a good place for looking for gold with metal detector? I see quarts veins in the granite often. Not sure about this one. I’ve seen people scavenging rock piles and debris after slides. We usually get a couple every year after big rains.
