Crushing Quartz Samples


Recommended Posts


Get yourself a fine sieve and sieve out the fine powder intermitantly while crushing otherwise it all gums up in the bottom ?  The wifes flour sieve will do if you dont have a set ?

Well Scott,

 I know a little bit in pocket hunting. I know that to locate I have found small bits very low on an already worked area. After finding bits I then chase them up till they stop. After they stop ( they bring the bits) I then work backwards both sides of the draw. It's like loaming. Once I find what side of a draw is best (keeping in mind it could be just erosion by water and frost heave) I hunt till it runs out and the again go backwards. It a process of elimination and deduction. I have only been around to find three pockets so far. I'm still very new to pocket hunting but just elimination works best.

Get aftrit!

John
