Lunk Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 Today I'm one year older and the poke is seven nuggets golder! It's also a special day because I unearthed Quartzsite nugget number three-hundred. Who knew there were that many pieces of gold hiding in these old, worked-out patches?? Good luck out there!

It is very interesting seeing that picture of the worked-patch on flat ground. I am a Quartzsite rookie and have wondered if walking that flat ground that is everywhere would produce results. I am now only 298 nuggets short of my 300th this year, and they both came out of a small wash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
