    ⭐ Gold Detecting Show'n Tell

    Detector went nuts and it was this rock. It never did this before Covered in crud so i pocket it for later thinking a nug could be stuck on it. Found this after cleaning. Discrimination on the detector was spot on. Went back to the spot and so many signals...so many rocks.

    Thanks I'm very happy. Hands a little buzzed from the dremel. No dop just handheld. Was a bit worried on the white one chasing the colour and shape. Dark one 19ct and white is 14ct. Nice big stones.
