Default Snellville Georgia Area

Hi All...I will be in the Snellville, Georgia area the weekend of July 19, 2008. I would like to know if anyone can suggest areas where I might be able to Metal Detect, or anyplace to pan for gold? I am interexted in "real" gold-panning, and NOT a place where gold is "planted" in a bucket. Can anyone help me with this?

Thanks!

Mike
