frank c Posted February 14, 2011 Share Posted February 14, 2011 Spent a couple days at Gold Basin and was able to turn up a nice 153 grammer along with 2 smaller pieces on our Goldenrite Claim.I was using a coiltek 11" round mono and had a quick faint signal while swinging along at a fair pace so I stopped and slowed down the swing over the area and decided to dig.As I removed an inch or so the signal improved and then as many more inches where taken off a little at a time I started to think I had a great SLUG OF GOLD waiting at the end of the dig turned out to be this nice piece. The sound fooled me and I was dreaming of BIG GOLD. Quite a hole was dug to retrieve it.UNCLE MARVIN KING OF THE HILL AGAIN Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kaimi Posted February 14, 2011 Share Posted February 14, 2011 Aloha Frank,Awesome find out at GB. Too bad it was ONLY a meteorite tho.:baaasmiley: Just imagine, if that was a chunk of gold we wouldn't be hearing from you for a while. I will be stopping by Docs shortly to pick up my signal enhancer amp for my SD2200 so you better put Uncle Marvin on notice. Hopefully I will have as much luck with the minelab as I have had with my GMT in the past. Plus I will be bringing my own "secret weapon" along for the ride to Franconia this saturday.Hope to see you out there.Aloha and now go find some gold.Stan aka Ka'imi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
