Jackhammer strikes it big in W.Australia


Recommended Posts

Scottie asked that I post these pictures taken direct from the Outback. Scottie, (aka Jackhammer) is out on his annual expedition to Western Australia. They hit this piece, (the one in his mouth) it weighs something like 4 1/2 ounces. It is for sale to interested buyers. As you can see it is an amazing piece.

Then they dug up this specimen, about the same weight but they have not done a specific gravity test on it to know how much is gold.

Way to go Scottie!

By the way I think they are asking $4500 for the 151 gram piece, and $2000 for the small boulder specimen. Not exactly sure how much that one weighs.

Doc,

that is a beautiful nugget. Do you know if it had been cleaned or did they find it that way?
