Admin nuggethunting Posted March 31, 2010 Admin Report Share Posted March 31, 2010 Hello All, This weekend one of my hunting partners came over and showed me a nugget he found at Moore Creek. This nugget was covered with ugly quartz and ironstone, but after he left it in a tumbler for several days this is what popped out. I remember seeing the original version of this nugget/specimen and you probably couldn't give it away. However, after some tumble action you can actually see the gold. Total weight was right at 3 Troy ounces. Gold Nugget was found at Moore Creek a year or so ago with a Minelab GPX-4500 and Coiltek Searchcoil at depth. Thought you would enjoy.
