[QUOTE="KarlS, post: 145600, member: 2409"] I have not been to Black Springs for months. I had been chasing gold elsewhere . But I can confirm that after panning tallings from 3 to 5 buckets of saphire bearing wash on serval occasions last year, I haven't found not even one spec of gold. Although the old timer what digs there told me that he found few nuggets there. Heatho, the tiny stones are mostly very clear. For all I know some of the could be diamonds. But they are too small to do any kind of conventional tests on them. I have found only very few zircons around Sapphire Bend. Quite few small quartz crystals. And no Spinel at all. Karl [/QUOTE]
