Gold has been known since ancient times, probably at least 6 to 12 thousand years ago.

In the United States, gold mining began with the Reed Farm Mine in North Carolina, 1799.

Gold in California dates to well before California was part of the United States. About 1775, gold was found in placer deposits along the Colorado River a few miles west of Yuma, Arizona.

Our ancient ancestors found gold first and as there are no records going back that far we do not know who first found gold.

Most ancient civilisations held gold in esteem, so its use as value and for decoration would have started over 4000 years ago. Historians would disagree about which people used it first.

Gold has been used for thousands of years. The ancient Egyptians used gold. I have seen gold jewelry dating from 4BCE. It is hard to say what country first discovered gold.
