Admin nuggethunting Posted January 28, 2007 Admin Report Share Posted January 28, 2007 Hello All, Today Leaverite and I decided to spend today exploring a new placer area. I've been wanting to spend more time prospecting this location, but been very limited to free time. Today we spent the entire day working up and down big washes and small gullies, but only one single nugget was found. I found a nice 3 Dwt nugget right in the middle of a mid-sized drainage that had some exposed bedrock. We both went up and down this wash, hit all the side feeders and even parts of the bench with no luck. Really thought I was onto a new patch, but ended up being a "One Nugget Patch" instead. I know there is more gold in the area, but it's going to take some time pinpointing it down. Below is the nugget I found today with the Minelab GPX-4000 & Coiltek 14-inch Round Mono Searchcoil. Take care,Rob Allison Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
