pennigold Posted February 4, 2014 Share Posted February 4, 2014 Well no wonder the Garrett is beeping at these quartz veins, there is copper ore all over the place. I was just zeroed in on the quartz and not the greater surrounding area.Going to keep scratching at these though, looks like a possible place to find gold, I think???

sawmill Posted February 4, 2014 Share Posted February 4, 2014 Penni My bulldog helps me dig,and keeps the tails from my drywasher cleaned out whileI am drywashing. If gold smelled like chicken ,I would be rich,he would be all over that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
devilishjim Posted February 4, 2014 Share Posted February 4, 2014 Ok Penni hurry with your dogs but in the meantime I need Sawmills dog for moving tailings. I wonder if he keeps shoveling and bonking poor dog over the head with rocks ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaius Posted February 4, 2014 Share Posted February 4, 2014 From what I have read the very best quartz gold is in Northern Calif. and there not much quartz gold outside of Northern Calif. Near one of the GPAA claim outside of Barstow, CA is a especially large mount of white quartz and to date no one has found any gold near the white quartz. Now while I might take time for a little medal detecting around this white quartz I would not invest too much time. Keeping in mind there are other dessert gold clues to be aware if I found a some blood red quartz in the areaI would invest a bit time and effort sampling for gold.

boulder dash Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 Im having a hard time seeing the copper from your photos. Could you take a close up please. I also always always wear my gloves while working on any quartz hardrock. Quartz will tear you up as fast as a high speed bike crash on Tuesday afternoon.
