Stumbling slow and LISTEN...

Think about updating to the Minelab Gold Monster 1000...

Nice gold..

A few years ago i was camped out near the cemetary at decisions corners . I put my brand new 3000 together and drove past the GPAA camp towards Yarnell. I was looking at a bench i had decided to hunt.. Walked up the hill and started to hunt that bench area, I made exactly 2 sweeps and i got that tell tale tone Wee ooop that i knew from then on it probably was gold.. Dug a little and out popped a nice piece of gold..Well i hunted the area hard after that but it was the only gold around... No complaints was very happy with that..... I was a little newer in that photo....lol

Maybe a lifetime...lol

Well done Steve, im humbled by your struggles and success, stay strong my friend...

A few pieces ive banged in, a lot of hard work as these are individual targets....

Well done, gold is hard won.......

Dendritic in nature, its very interesting .....

Well done Chris.....

A while back i was hunting a bench area in the 40 Mile that a miner friend had given me permisson to detect.. I was checking a cleaned bedrock area and over a gravel filled crack i heard a nice tone...Several dwt pieces were cleaned out and at the bottom was this 1.5oz slug... yikes time for the gold shuffle for sure....

Very nice gold for sure...

Great looking gold and specimen....Well done...

Use baking soda rinse to get rid of the plastic tasste....

Yep it isnt going anywhere....I dont see it often its hidden away in my heavy safe deposit box lol

Wandering aimlessly when i found this, what a surprise when it popped out of the dirt.. https://www.detectorprospector.com/magazine/steves-mining-journal/georges-gold-nugget-moore-creek-metal-detecting/

Interesting graphics....

Make sure your claim boundaries are properly marked....

Hi Steve, I had walked down to the beach on the runway that ran parallel to the surl to check out a site i had found earlier. Was just hoping to find a bead or two. On the way back i took a newly cut road and in the bank i saw a bone sticking out. I stopped pulled the bone out and picked up a rock to use tobdig into the bank i got a hole started and stuff just started tumbling down.. The rock turned out to be. Partially formed piece of jadite the rest of the pieces are just stuff, one looks like a plug of some kind.. I did too, find a bead lol.. Had to be careful there as we shared the beach area with Brown bears...

Some items i located in a beach road cut, i noticed something sticking out of thr newly exposed bank. Mosst of these items had been deeply buried...

The only way to locate deep deposits is by drilling... Thats what the old time prospectors did..

Well done Steve, great finds for sure.... Axe is a one of a kind dig. .....

Nice find, well done.....

Well done
