Was up at Eldorado recently and saw granite everywhere, didn't have any tools to really break it apart when I was up there but just wondering if anyone has broken it open and if it was worth it?

ive done it in sedimentary rock before but not in granite if you can get a crow bar into those bigger rocks and leaver them out take out all the clay and gravel under them and around them you may find some nice pickers :)
 
One word. Float. Can be done.

As for cracking them open in my estimation I would settle for collecting up the free gold. Easy digs easy gold.
 
It was more a response to HTY. Float the boulders. I watched a bloke balloon these up and shift them with ease. No back just float and air in Reedy. He was cleaning up. I'll be packing the compressor on my next adventure and decent water levels.
