Popular Post madtuna Posted July 3, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted July 3, 2017 Found a run in laterite yesterday, basically just laterite with the odd bit of quartz here and there. Picked up 1/2 oz of sub gr pieces and as it was late in the day and my ute was 6 klms away I marked and left in the ground 30+ signals. Returned this morning and picked up 40+grams of subs to 2.5grs. It was all reefy gold that hadn't travelled so I tried tracing it up the hill, marking another 50 or so signals to dig out later. All of a sudden WHAM!!!! The back of my ute now has 40+kg of rock absolutely riddled with gold and the signal is still going along and down. This spot will keep me amused for weeks as the initial run is about 30 metres wide and about 100 metres long and who know how big it will expand to. Not sure what I have yet and too afraid to estimate but it's multi ounces, just how many is the question. Half the bit I picked up were sunbakers too, sitting there winking at me. 40+grs from today 40+kg of rock / reef/ ore/ something Crappy pic of random chunk of what it's all like 32 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Herschbach Posted July 3, 2017 Share Posted July 3, 2017 It's kind of amazing but there are still patches out there that have been missed all these years. I have no doubt plenty of hours went into finding your new location so I hope that pile of gold just gets larger! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mn90403 Posted July 3, 2017 Share Posted July 3, 2017 Good on you or anyone that can find such a location. Thanks for sharing some of your thrill and excitement with us over it. It's not ours but we are along for a little bit of the ride. We still have your sense of the unknown rather than a final total. Try to save some of your personal thoughts on audio/video for your friends or even us later. All of a sudden WHAM!!!! That is what it is ALL about.
