Admin nuggethunting Posted July 12, 2012 Admin Report Share Posted July 12, 2012 Hello All, In this video I discovered this small gold nugget, around 1/4 Dwt in size. The gold nugget was found in a small drainage bleeding off a ridge. As you might notice, the gravel is fairly shallow, so sniping gold nuggets from these area can be easy if the gold is there. After the discovery of this small nugget, I found three more around the same size in a straight line up the hillside. About 100 yards up from the discovery of these nuggets, I found a large shelf area, which could be a patch. Excited to get back out there and see where the gold is coming from and if the flat area might be holding the best nuggets.I was using a Minelab GPX 5000 metal detector and Nugget Finder 14-inch Elliptical EMZ Searchcoil. I mentioned in the video the coil was a RMZ, but it's elliptical so it's the new EMZ that is solid on top and bottom. Hope you enjoyed the video.Rob Allison Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Admin nuggethunting Posted August 17, 2012 Author Admin Report Share Posted August 17, 2012 Hey Roger, It was indeed a small nugget, but since that first nugget we have found about another ounce. Biggest nugget was around 3 Dwt's, most of them were smaller like the one seen in the Youtube video. Thanks for the comments. I will continue to film more as time goes on. Talk with you later,Rob Allison Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
