Allen in MT Posted July 28, 2012 Share Posted July 28, 2012 .Went back down the draw to the point that I had worked the previous week. I re-raked the bottom 3rd of the slope and found another 15 tiny dinks with the GB2 and 6" coil. I detected it one way and then again at a 90 degree angle and re- raked it again but couldn't pull any more out. I then went up and brought some more down and found nothing. The total pieces from this spot is 47 for a total weight of grams with the biggest weighing .796 grams and the smallest weighing .014 grams.I did classify a 6 gallon bucket of the dirt and run thru a small 12V sluice and basically found squat.Going to branch out and work along the upper bank to see if I can locate where this stuff is comming from, There are a few other points like this in the draw and those will get tested as time permitsThis little guy not to far from me kept poking his head out of a hole to see what I was doing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
