I live on the side of a massive granite hill. I know that there is little gold to be found on granite protrusions, however I just discovered a large quartz reef running through the hill. My question is... can there be gold in this reef? I've got no sound from my GPX5000, just wondering if I went down a bit maybe I could find something. How did the old timers find gold in reefs? Surely they just didn't start digging. There appears to be some old diggings as well on this hill but no shafts or mines. Any suggestions?
I can post pics if anyone interested.
