Rodd in B.C. Posted May 29, 2011 Author Share Posted May 29, 2011 Looks a little water worn in the pictures. Was it mined that way or found as float?Lotsa LuckHi It came out of a vein I just by chance happened to be in a Vet Legion and got into a conversation with a fellow that had worked in the mine in his younger days and he said there were big open areas in the mine that were as big as the building we were in,it was the ritches mine in the countrysomething like the Sixteen to One. You can look into one of the horizontal tunnels in August and still see ice and feel a super cold air coming out of it just like air condition..I have stumbled on numerous veins of that pyrite about a foot acrost near some of the creeks around here ..Rodd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
