[QUOTE="Ditherer and Son, post: 12842, member: 394"] I spent almost a week up on a property at Stewarts Brook, with the property owner's permission. I panned like mad, got 1 speck, but I did find lots of very small gemstones, mostly tourmalines and sapphires - though very very small. I detected around the area got nothing, and dug some dirt out of a little tributary in the backblocks which yielded about 3 specks of gold. There's lots of quartz in some locations, but the gold was mostly got from tunnels into the quartz veins high up on the hillsides, the quartz was then crushed before sluicing. Not much alluvial gold at all I am afraid. [/QUOTE]
