Popular Post Lunk Posted March 10, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted March 10, 2020 While exploring an old desert mining district yesterday, I came across a small drywashed patch. I like these kinds of spots not only because detecting them usually guarantees a few bits will be added to the poke, but also searching the surrounding area can potentially lead to more nuggets or even another small, overlooked patch. Slow and thorough coverage with the mighty Zed netted five pieces of the good stuff, including a sweet gram and a half nugget at eight inches in a coarse tailing pile, and two bits that each weigh in at a mere zero point zero four of a gram. Over 2.5 grams all up, and at today’s gold prices, even that small amount adds up to some decent pocket change. 19 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flakmagnet Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 Your sense of where to look is a lesson in itself. The smallest piece in the lower right is what I am scoring these days close to home. I'm getting the hint that I need to take a trip. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
