Popular Post madtuna Posted July 4, 2017 Author Popular Post Share Posted July 4, 2017 Thanks folks for your comments and well wishes. I posted something similar on another forum I am a member of and soon enough vipers started to appear and the thread was locked. Many comments were just good people concerned for which I am grateful. One fellow sent me a message saying to wait a few days and just say I was mistaken and dug up bullets. I wont do that. Forums are about sharing, encouraging and showing that it can happen. Plus I wanted share my excitement. What I told him was basically I am well protected out here and it would be a silly person that tried to relieve me of my finds and I am extremely confident this spot wont be located even by chance. Also as the station has new owners I am no longer alone out here. I am also very cautious about what I share and take my personal safety very serious. Anyway, thanks again and here's a couple of more pics. So far I've crushed about 1 1/2 kg of rock for about 4oz Some of the rock... Some fines... 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why do the trolls (vipers) have to ruin it for everyone else? I absolutely agree about how sharing and encouraging each other is one of the best things about any online community. When my luck is down or I am just too busy it is good to know others are making great finds - and who does not like pictures of gold? Great find - again, congratulations! 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deft Tones Posted July 4, 2017 Share Posted July 4, 2017 Don't post any pictures taken on location with any device that has GPS if you want to keep that spot to yourself. Too bad about the idiots raining on your parade. Par for the internet I suppose. Keep on stacking those nuggets! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
