Nevada Side Gold Basin


Recommended Posts

Here is a video about an 8 lb main mass Gold Basin meteorite.  I've seen other large pieces found on that side before it became a monument.

That place sure was a fun hunting due to the remoteness, to bad it was turned into a National Monument, that means no more meteorites, no more prospecting, no more metal detecting, ect from that large area. I hate being a Debby Downer, but a big pet peeve of mine is closing off our lands, so we cannot prospect, or meteorite hunt anymore, and its amazing the amount of land each year that is disappearing.

Thanks for pointing out the video Mitchel. That Joe guy also made some really nice finds on Ivanpah Dry lake near stateline, and a new strewn field south of Boulder City, NV. Not many people know, but that Joe guy is best friends with Robert Ward, and they both went to High School together.

Dave.
