Admin nuggethunting Posted May 1, 2007 Admin Report Share Posted May 1, 2007 Hello All, Leaverite and I went back to a spot that we both worked in the past. The general area has produced a good 100+ gold nuggets, most of them under a Dwt in size. Within 3-4 hours we both found the group of nuggets shown on the Coiltek Searchcoil below. I found the gold nuggets on the right side and Leaverite found the ones on the left. My biggest piece was 1.4 Dwts, the rest are 1/2 Dwt and smaller. The wash is loaded with fines and small flakes. Have plans to take a good friend back that loves to drywash and vac. I wouldn't doubt if there is several ounces in smaller stuff that we can't detect. All nuggets were found with the Minelab GPX-4000's, Coiltek 14-inch Mono Rounds & Joey Mono's. Take care,Rob Allison Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acronn Posted May 1, 2007 Report Share Posted May 1, 2007 Hey Rob that picture of the one nugget in the gravel looks like a skull to me with black eyes. A Halloween nugget. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Admin nuggethunting Posted May 4, 2007 Author Admin Report Share Posted May 4, 2007 Hello Guys, Thanks for the comments. Leaverite went back and scored another 5 nuggets in the same general area. Ron, I think the soil matrix is "Artillery Peak!" Take care,Rob Allison Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
