Prospecting Detecting Nevada Geology Training?

I met some guys recently who got some nice gold digging down into the gravel of a desert ravine to get gold that could not be seen by a detector until some of the over burden was removed. The gold was so nice I told them that they needed a bulldozer. 

That has been the method I have found most of my gold. It's a lot of work to dig off overburden. Never really found a patch where I could just detect nuggets. Found a few stragglers, but not patches...unless I dig off the overburden. Sometimes 3+feet... yikes.
