jasong Posted January 1, 2016 Share Posted January 1, 2016 Sounds like shale and looks kinda like it too maybe? I think that's what mine was in and the vein was all squirrely and hard to track since the rock is so fractured. It'd be there, then it'd be 8" over to the side, then it'd just turn into a conglomerate/breccia looking pod of mishmash cemented together by some muddy carbonate looking stuff. Mine was way smaller than what it looks like you have going on though, that's cool! I hope you find some big pockets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quick Posted January 1, 2016 Share Posted January 1, 2016 Looks like dirt to me! On a more serious note look at it with a loop that might give you a clue. You could tell if it is porphyritic. Root 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Watkins Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 Jasong the two areas sound very similar,like root said it's time to put it under the microscope. Going to have to set up the portable rock crusher here and do some crushing and panning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
