Gary, was going to PM you but I guess we can't do that anymore. Doing good, haven't been up to see Matt for a while.Last I heard he was helping to reopen a mine in Tuolumne county . Matt, rock was from an open cut and tailing pile. Tailings was detected,open cut was sampels. All milled in a home made ball mill and melted in a kilm. Jim, Hope you are doing well. Glad to be of help. Thank you for the package you sent. It means a lot to me. Photo 0651 My grandson Alex on the open cut. 0652 My son Justin on the dump. All Take Care, Chuck

Milled about 20 pounds of quartz from our mine. ( pocket mine ) Buttens ready for sale.

Gravelwasher, Yes it was in Quartz and I gave it an acid bath.

Hi Gary, That's another story, will talk to you later. Chuck

Wes, No it's not mine, my hole in the ground is on the other side of the hill. Chuck

Hi , Rick Mosher road has three locked gates on it now. New owners of privet property will not let anyone pass through. Chuck

A little chunk from the Diltz Mine. 151.76 Grams Luck on your next hunt, Chuck

Yep still working the same old dump, lots and lots of rock left to detect. Take care, Chuck

Sundays hunt was a little wet but all went well for Eric and Justin. Lots a luck on your next hunt, Chuck

OK RICK , Here are the picks of the last hunt. Hay JOE , When are you going to bring that TDI to the rock pile,it's been almost a year since I saw you.

Between the last batch of storms we had a brake on Saturday. Our outing produced a couple other treasures besides gold,the square nail is six inches long, that's the biggest I have come across.The candle holder well, I've wanted to find one for a long time. Will post the gold picks later. Lots of luck on your next hunt. Chuck

I have often wondered why we find so many boot tacks around old diggings, now I know why. NICE LOOKING YELLOW METAL --- Chuck

Saturday's hunt started out a bit slow on the upper dump,so we went down to the lower dump and started a new dig. Came home with a few descent rocks,one showed no visible gold until slabbed. Luck on your next hunt, Chuck

BACK TO THE TOP Morning Rick I have been watching a few of your latest post , seems like its the same few people that will reply with an " ATABOY " for your hard work finding those nuggets, and it's the same few that will post gold they have found . Out of four thousand members on this forum seems like more would post their finds or at least a well done for your efforts. Take Care, Chuck

That old rock pile gave up five rocks today. Last Saturday that old fox helped herself to our lunch,to top that off we were skunked, No Gold . Luck to all on your next hunt. Chuck
