And that last piece looks a little chunky. That is a great sign. There will be good spots there. Figure out the ground. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lanny Posted April 26 Share Posted April 26 I love detecting in Nevada, so much ground and so little time. I also love that Nevada is mineralized right from the bottom to the top, great place to find gold. Keep swinging those coils, and hopefully sooner than later you'll get it over some nice nuggets. All the best, Lanny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like you will need some help!😉 Well, if you can show me how to find gold amongst the can slaw and nails, let me know when you're in the area.

Lol My Self-Contained Obscure Object Processor has settings for discriminating any type of metal from gold, including those also. It works really well! 😉 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beekbuster Posted May 8 Share Posted May 8 Look for bedrock. Shallow ground. I was a gold seeking machine back in Redding. I found several patches that produced several ounces at each spot all in a span of one year. Now I'm in Winnemucca working my arse off and can't get a day off. Have been out about 20 times. Saw tooth, rye patch, Eugenes, it just doesn't jump out at me like Redding patches do. Everything is so monotone, homogeneous, with the exception of sawtooth, I'm confident I can find gold there. But so far not a speck of Nevada gold in the poke for me as of yet. Anyway if you put in the time, you will learn the area. The fact you're finding gold right off the bat, you're doing good. If the gold is not big, a dry washer or recirculating sluice might be a better bet. Good luck and keep us posted 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good luck and keep us posted I have a sluice and a drywasher. I plan on utilizing them both. Plenty of water to run a sluice now. Later in the summer, the drywasher should come into play. Wish I could get out there for more than a day at a time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
