Admin nuggethunting Posted March 16, 2014 Admin Report Share Posted March 16, 2014 Hello All, A good friend of mine just sent me over these pictures, but can't say much more than the following -Pocket found in the Mother Lode of California. Found with the new Garrett ATX metal detector. Owners are working the vein down to over 96 foot in depth. They believe they are just on the cap of a big pocket. Discovered on Private Property, not a club claim or open BLM or Forest Land. Good luck to them. They said they will update me further as time goes on.

Ridge Runner Posted March 16, 2014 Report Share Posted March 16, 2014 Isn't life wonderful! I seen gold like that one time before at the Johnson mine above Stanton. When a friend hit a blow out when he own it. Chuck Anders Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gravelwasher Posted March 19, 2014 Report Share Posted March 19, 2014 Some motivation to keep us all chasing the yellow, thanks for the pics! I know what I will be dreaming about tonight.

NvDoug Posted March 19, 2014 Report Share Posted March 19, 2014 Fantastic find gentlemen!!! and Thanks for sharing the pic's & some of the story. . . With that said... it aint worth the end-all-game-over-scenario(.) Broken bones - fall.... That is important to share as well and am glad you did. It reminds us all to take a double take on what were doing and how were going about it. Put your heads together so you can get it done safe. Watch out for each other so you can reap the rewards without having to heal and God forbid ... dig a 6' hole. Be safe, Doug Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
