Boy, you opened a can of worms! An Electroscope works very similar to a couple of bent copper welding rods. If you can get those to work, the Electroscope will probably work for you. With the rods, I can find buried waterlines and structures(faults) in the ground that carry water. With the Electroscope, I have found many objects that were lost in the leaves. I have followed underground quartz veins only to find them finally come to the surface. Others have witnessed it. No gold yet although I did find a 1906 dime with it once. I know, it doesn't work!

Nice that you can find small gold with those machines. Any gold is good! As for being a flyspeck, even a .3 gram piece is 4.5 grains. Not quite a flyspeck but maybe small for those machines? Never used either one. That .3 gram piece is about $15 today!

Indian creek or Rattlesnake creek?

May be strange for your area but to me, it looks like an ordinary rock....

Here in northern California while out prospecting it is not out of the question to walk into cartel grows that have 5000 to 30000 plants in them. I have walked into them numerous times. Not a good feeling even if you are "carrying". Just back out quickly and quietly and hope nothing happens.

Absolutely ......

should push on in the direction of the coil. It goes on tight.

Sorry Clay, didn't go that far.

Read the second post in this topic from last fall..... probably why they are going up. https://nuggetshooter.ipbhost.com/topic/33048-blm-increases-filing-fees-for-mining-claims/

Bob, any electrician that works for $12 an hour in your town must do it because they want to or, how can I say it nicely, because they don't know any better. All they have to do is drive 10 minutes to the east or 30 minutes to the south and be in the money and benefits.....

Kinda hard to hear it 50 years ago when it happened in 1992... grin
