[QUOTE="Gregyem, post: 673709, member: 23249"] Yeah I did run the coil across the narrow inner zone. Not much signal and what was there was not reliable. I saw no sign of iron mineralisation in the faces that were excavated, only on the ground exposed to rain and run off. Also, no signs of quartz veins penetrating the conglomerate, which led me to believe the gold was fluvially deposited at the same time as the conglomerate matrix. I will go back to the area sometime (its lovely country) but certainly will not be doing any pick work on that column. There is a very good reason the old timers left it in place. [/QUOTE]
