Admin nuggethunting Posted March 24, 2010 Admin Report Share Posted March 24, 2010 Hello All, Thought you would like to see some new Yellow stuff. Just goes to show it's still out there if you're willing to search for it. This batch here took a lot of hard work, but it was well worth it at the end of the day. All found with a Minelab GPX-4500 & Coiltek Goldstalker Searchcoils here in the good old Arizona. Just thought you would enjoy.

Admin nuggethunting Posted March 24, 2010 Author Admin Report Share Posted March 24, 2010 Hey Guys, Thanks for all the comments on the gold nugget picture and fast shipping. I do my best to get the orders out the same day or next day at the latests. I know when I order something I want to get it soon, so I do the same with others. Thanks for all the continued business.On another note, the nuggets in the Minelab Coffee Cup are from Arizona. It took a lot of hard work, but I'm not the sole owner, just part. I can't take all the credit, several of my partners helped out and it was a team effort. Without the team effort we wouldn't have those nuggets. Just goes to show what hard work and some research can do. We are now in search for another patch or pocket. Take care,Rob Allison Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Dorado Posted March 24, 2010 Report Share Posted March 24, 2010 DAYAM....... might have been hard work, but it must have been big fun at the same time. My curiosity is killing me, how much does a cup a gold weigh? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob(AK) Posted March 24, 2010 Report Share Posted March 24, 2010 Very good Rob, like Eldorado says, How much does a heaping cup of gold weigh?? Probably 10 troy pounds---looks like a normal size cup. May have to weigh it a bit at a time, Bob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Southside Posted March 24, 2010 Report Share Posted March 24, 2010 Rob, Very nice! I'm guessing fourty ounces. Southside Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chaderly Posted March 24, 2010 Report Share Posted March 24, 2010 My WAG is 15.3 troy lbs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paseclipse Posted March 24, 2010 Report Share Posted March 24, 2010 I say it's ~15.6 pounds (not troy) if it's an average size coffee cup. Not a WAG!Casey I know you'll get a chuckle out of this!Del Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chaderly Posted March 25, 2010 Report Share Posted March 25, 2010 Very nice Del. I did put a little thought into it but not to the degree you did. I was trying to anticipate void spaces but that truly is a WAG since gradation in not known or consistent. I guessed that with the void spaces removed you would end up with about 10 fluid oz. or 295.73 cubic centimeters x 19.3gm per cubic centimeter = 5707.59gm or 15.29 troy pounds. At least we did not start thinking about purity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paseclipse Posted March 25, 2010 Report Share Posted March 25, 2010 Funny Chris, I thought you might have put it into your software too since our estimates were close. No thought process on my part- Just extruded a cylinder to the average size of a coffee cup, assigned gold as the material, and did a Mass properties. It took about a minute. I figured since it's overflowing from the top this would account for some void spaces. As for the other uncertainties... that why I used the tilde(~)! I'd say my estimate is probably the maximum.Del Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
