Hi all
Tried a new spot closer to home.
I spent more time building a dam for the sluice than digging.
But I did find my best pieces so far.
I took the detector with me for fun and found a piece of metal on the trailing edge of a gravel pile.
I was debating whether to start running that stuff as I thigh metal is heavy so is gold.
The gravel pile is behind what I think is huge bedrock.
Im just not sure wether to commit and start shoveling process or not.
I guess I wont know until I try.
First question should I have a crack and work back toward the bedrock slab?
Second question is
On my way climbing out a shorter way I noticed the massive slab of bedrock with natural cracks.
Covered with moss and small saplings.
Looking closer it has been flooded over before as there were trees and debris facing down river.
Im wonder how high will gold travel in flood and rest on this slab/staircase ?
Im going back on the weekend and will detect over this rock and maybe check some crevices.
Surely there must be some up there and hopefully undiscovered so much.
Cheers cam
