Paluxy River Gold Mine
Posted by Oil Field Trash on January 18th, 2006
Many years ago a retired railroad worker discovered gold in the paluxy. For years he slaved away amassing a fortune in gold dust. He died happy and weathy. He left his fortune to his nephew a friend of mine. It was in 8 1gal pickle jars. He had no car so he asked me to give him a ride to Ft. Worth. We went to see a jeweler at Seminary South. My friend had been talking to the jeweler and the jewler was excited by his chance to buy pure gold dust. When he run test on the dust it turned out to be iron pyrite (fools gold). It seem the old miner never checked to be sure. We took the jars back home I still have one of them, he gave it to me for the ride to Ft. Worth. And now for the rest of the story. The old miner because of his greed bought up all the paluxy river property he could afford. This too was passed on to my friend, turns out there really is gold in the paluxy (well under it).
