Great News! Ive always enjoyed your stories, and it will be great to be able to reread the old stories that were on The Alaska Gold Forum. When the time comes, please do let us all know when and where it will be available. Thanks, Kodiak

Newb Meteorite Identification
Kodiak replied to MetalHunter's topic in Metal Detecting For Meteorites
Im no expert, but probably melted aluminum as its non-ferrous. Usually aluminum slag is shinier though. Maybe copper slag? Have you tried scratching it to see the color of metal inside? -
So sorry to hear this. I always enjoyed the Alaska Gold Forum and all of Jims contributions to the gold mining community. My thoughts and prayers are with you and Jim.

Freddy Dodge's Gold Prospecting Show
Kodiak replied to Tom Slick's topic in Detector Prospector Forum
Just watched the Fredo and Juano show. Great as usual. Way more believable than the GhostMiners stories. That was a very quick appearance from Steve on the show. Looks like im getting off the Rock for a few weeks, hoping to do some mining up in Hope. Will be in Anchorage, gonna check out the new AMDS. Kodiak. -

Spring Tide Finds - Including A Big Bullet..
Kodiak replied to Erik Oostra's topic in Metal Detecting For Jewelry
Nice finds. Looks like a blank shell to me. Crimped ends is the dead give-away. Funny you found the BANG ping the same day. Bottle opener looks like a butterfly knife. Thanks for sharing. -
Thanks for the detailed post Erik. I like sharks about as much as I like bears, and that isnt much. Stay Safe.

Unusual Find - 3 Pence Made Into A Pin
Kodiak replied to Erik Oostra's topic in Metal Detecting For Coins & Relics
Nice find. The pin part looks really straight as well. I think its going to get harder and harder to find jewelry made from converted currency in the future, as the current coins wouldnt hold up.
