Nah, had it with an agent for a bit, waste of time only "tyre kickers" looking for a bargain. Into the dolly pot and smelted ended up yielding  42.314 ozs gold, 4.442 ozs silver. Was just solid with a bit of quartz smeared on outside.

IDd, was a big unbelievable Wow, in fringe country that historically has no alluvials and only microscopic gold in quartz,   I had only just started the day and was going to camp out a few days, rushed home pronto to show the Missus.

Back around 1988 found a 1/2  oz. One with desert varnish on it, don't know long it takes desert varnish to form but I think  its a long time..
