Relichunter2 Posted February 20, 2014 Report Share Posted February 20, 2014 Well I went out today for about three hours to a site I have been working for about two years on and off. Its becoming worked out like my other few spots. Thought I would try my 20" inch NF coil on and work the area as I have cleared pretty much most of the trash...and maybe perhaps I would get a deep wooo-eee . Well after about an hour Nada .... Thats when I switched to a 11 inch Mono and give it a go. Went over to a area about...opposite of my patch and gave the 11 inch a go for about an hour. I got signal , sounded pretty good, but ended up being a piece of square nail..than another about a foot away. Right after that last nail I got a much smoother, mellow sound...dug down expecting another piece of trash..when this little guy popped out...1 gram even ! Its a good day regardless of size Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Relichunter2 Posted February 20, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 20, 2014 Thanks guys, yeah I think so. I got this thing in my head perhaps it's a challenge or contest to find a nugget every week. I don't even care if its 6 grain. Ever since I have done it, keeping that goal in my mind, my finds increased. The power of positive thought and hard work . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Relichunter2 Posted February 21, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 21, 2014 Thanks Ron, yeah...ran into the skunk yesterday. The day started out with a plan to do a 45 minute hike to a site and give it a go. Well about half way there and hiking on a pretty steep slope, I got a glimpse of a large rusty CANCO bucket so i investigated and saw a tailing pile in the poison oak and bushes. not far from that was a mine. Found a nice pile of quartz but it was so full of poison oak I bailed from the spot. Maybe one day when i get bored I will go back to it and investigate it better. Today gona go easy and flat land it...hope the skunk don't visit... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
