Cowkiller 150 Posted January 20, 2015 Tom and I hit some new to us stuff on the lsd with the motorcycles. We found a 4.06 grammer and lots of trash. We also found some sulfur? What ever it is it burns very good and smells bad. Here are some pictures. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I just added to my bullet/tin collection.I burnt one of my pieces tonight and its cool.Turns into a copper colored blob and burns with a blue flame. Smells like poop though Tom H.

adam 3,107 Posted January 20, 2015 Yep looks like sulfur...You have to eat a piece to find out for sure Sulfur can be a good indicator A 4 + GRAMMER!! In the Santo Domingo is a nice score! Sounds like you guys were having way to much fun out there Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

newriverblake 38 Posted January 20, 2015 Good job guys, I think I've been to that sulfer mine that you speak of, north of lake Plesant and south of Flagstaff. I'm glad you guys had a great day and congrats on gold and pungent finds. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Digger Bob 33 Posted January 20, 2015 It's probably sulfer but I have a chunk of similar looking rock that my dad found in the Arizona desert back in the early 1960's. It's yellow cake uranium! Makes a Geiger counter scream. This was back when the government was buying uranium.Digger Bob Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
homefire 2,578 Posted January 20, 2015 (edited) I have a Coffee can of BLACK Urbanite here. Low level but it will make a Florescent lite tube spark once in a while. Edited January 21, 2015 by homefire Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Uncle Ron 1,471 Posted January 21, 2015 There's a number of patches in the LSD area that give a strong sulfur or sulfide smell ... Some of the good gold areas in the Klamath Mountains have the same feature... Sulfur is a good indicator! ... Cheers, Unc Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sonoran Dave 2,054 Posted January 21, 2015 Noticed that too Unc...some of the areas i've drywashed smell a little funky when you get down to the good red layer. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
