Montana Professor 22 Posted December 12, 2015 Share Posted December 12, 2015 Some of my Montana SDC2300 gold found this summer. The smallest " nugget" weighs in at a whopping .o4 grams and the largest at 2.01 grams. We are snowed in, the ground is frozen, and I have cabin fever but I will be in Arizona next month and hope to meet some of you. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Swampstomper Al 1,336 Posted December 13, 2015 Share Posted December 13, 2015 We can't find any nuggies in the summer down here cos they all turn molten, re-liquifyand sink into the center of the earth, along with our souls and will to live..Or something like that.. Ask Bill.. It's like Morristown, but with humidity.. Sweet finds, Prof..Swamp 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

IDdesertman 330 Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 Very nice gold Montana Professor!I was in Butte this spring and visited the great mining museum along with the mineral museum at the college. A very interesting area for sure. There's a whopper of a nugget on display there at the college I'm sure you have seen it. Great motivation to keep on swingin'! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Montana Professor 22 Posted December 14, 2015 Author Share Posted December 14, 2015 The beautiful nugget in the Montana Tech mineral museum was found in the Highland mountains south of Butte. It is my understanding that the nugget went out of the washing plant over the stacker and was found on top of the tailing pile. I have detected in that area and have found lots of square nails, bullets, shell casings, and hot rocks. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
