Magic Mike Posted May 14, 2012 Share Posted May 14, 2012 I had a lot of iron on my black sands magnet, i'm wondering if that is a good gold indicator. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steel Pan Posted May 14, 2012 Share Posted May 14, 2012 The thing about finding black sand is that it is heavier than most material and will settle with Gold.Finding it doesn't mean you will find Gold, just that if Gold is there you're lookin' in the right spot.

lotsa luck Posted May 14, 2012 Share Posted May 14, 2012 I had a lot of iron on my black sands magnet, i'm wondering if that is a good gold indicator.What kind of "iron" and can we see a pic of it? I find boot tacks, cut nails and barbed wire fence parts all the time in my concentrates. Means very little though since its all recent and says little about pay streaks. Magnetite chunks larger than golf balls means I'm on some good ground. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magic Mike Posted May 15, 2012 Author Share Posted May 15, 2012 i'm finding some pebble sized chunks and lots of powder, (also i have found parts of nails, boot tacks, barber wire, etc. and I just ignored that stuff and threw it away) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
