Condor Posted September 8, 2016 Share Posted September 8, 2016 I made it home to Yuma by the Sea and put my Rye Patch gold on the scale. We drug barons like to weigh in grams, so here it is. A little over half oz attributed in no small measure to the good graces of Lucky Lundy. Bravo Zulu Rick. I owe you big time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tortuga Posted September 9, 2016 Share Posted September 9, 2016 Got some nice chunks there. What's the weight on the biggest nugget? Any chevron gold? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Condor Posted September 9, 2016 Author Share Posted September 9, 2016 Biggest piece just a tad over 2 grams. No chevron gold. As far as the Deus I didn't use it on this trip. If you remember one of my previous posts, the Deus struggled in moderately hot ground on undisturbed gold targets. I really have high hopes for the new coil and hotter frequencies because the machine is an awesome concept, though not designed for gold prospecting. I have a few areas of bedrock close to the power lines that I want to explore with the Deus. I believe my niche for the Deus will be as a discriminating pinpointer for the 19" Z coil. I've dug some massive holes chasing deep targets with the Z. I can't imagine what the 19" will force me to dig. My 62 yr old frame can dig a finite number of deep holes in one day. I'm looking for a way to minimize the unproductive ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
