Popular Post mn90403 Posted January 3 Popular Post Share Posted January 3 What is left of the day is still my birthday, January 2nd. I spent the day at a well detected club claim in the Mojave Desert. This was a place I said I would go on my birthday because I don't think they got them all. I was right. We've had a tough time finding gold for the last few trips. We didn't find any with Reese in Arizona. We took an over nighter to Mojave and was skunked too. We also had a couple of other California trips without gold. It was nice to get these two nuggets with the 7000/X15CC. The first was about 3 inches deep and about 20 feet away the larger nugget at 6 inches was just a whisper at first. I got these within the first hour and didn't get any others in the next 6 hours. 20 Link to comment https://www.detectorprospector.com/topic/27401-birthday-nuggets/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Northeast Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 Happiest of birthdays to you Mitchel. How far is the Mojave for you? Day trip or overnighter? Did the fam make the trip out with you? 1 Link to comment https://www.detectorprospector.com/topic/27401-birthday-nuggets/#findComment-287865 Share on other sites More sharing options...
mn90403 Posted January 4 Author Share Posted January 4 The place where we go is about 3 hours with a couple of stops. We all went. I'd like to say my wife found some nuggets too but her 2300 has not been up to the task for the last few trips. Gold is small and deep now in that area. The boys were with me and I'd like to say they were out playing with their sand toys but they stayed in the car and watched the phones! 3 Link to comment https://www.detectorprospector.com/topic/27401-birthday-nuggets/#findComment-287878 Share on other sites More sharing options...
