trinityau Posted August 31, 2011 Report Share Posted August 31, 2011 Hey All, I went out again and got in the water with the mask and snorkle. I hit the backside of bedrock outcropping and as soon as I waved the light sand off I could see a row of hematite stones all lined up in a crack. I had to take the screwdriver to loosen up that first one and then they all came out one at a time just like a puzzle. There was a nice creamy color clay under the hematite. I fanned this layer off and there was the gold. It was like a page out of mining book. LOL, Gold bearing area, bedrock canyon, inside turn, shallow deposit behind outcropping, light sand over crevices containing indicator rocks and GOLD.

burta Posted August 31, 2011 Report Share Posted August 31, 2011 Man, does that bring back great memories. Beautiful country, cool rivers and lots of gold. Wish I could go back but I'm now stuck here in 110 degree heat and no cool rivers. I do manage to get out three days a week here but damn its hot. Come on fall.
