metal detecting over quartz rocks?

If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!

I just got into looking for gold and there are a lot of milky quartz rocks around where I live in piedmont nc. I heard that sometimes small amounts of gold may be found inside quartz rocks. Will it set off my metal detector if there is gold inside? Anybody else tried this? Thanks

Crushed gold and quartz tailing pile

In June 2009 we decided to investigate an area near our mineshaft and mill that had a hollow sound. Upon digging, we realized that the sound wasn’t from a buried structure, but of finely ground quartz and gold rubbing together like sand on a beach.
