mn90403 Posted April 13, 2017 Share Posted April 13, 2017 (edited) Last week Lu and I got out for 3 days. We ended up with two nuggets (2g) and 5 meteorites (98g)! The flowers were blooming ALL over. It was a good trip. Edited April 13, 2017 by mn90403 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andyy Posted April 22, 2017 Share Posted April 22, 2017 Nice going, Mitchel. The GPZ really seems to hit well on meteorites : Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mn90403 Posted April 22, 2017 Author Share Posted April 22, 2017 I was back there yesterday on a solo trip and got 4 meteorites (no gold) for 160g! I had to work for these as they were in a new area, deeper and were not loud in the beginning. The easy ones had been found years ago as evidenced by the old dig holes. I'll have them in my pocket at the Gold Show. Mitchel 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mn90403 Posted April 25, 2017 Author Share Posted April 25, 2017 Here they are cleaned up a bit. The caliche was taken off with vinegar. Maybe I now need to put a patina back on them? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
