[QUOTE="ProspectorPete, post: 126460, member: 3820"] I must have worded it wrong. I initially crushed the first sample in the dolly, dolly was pretty clean as nothing prior has shown colour and no visible material in the bottom before I started, then put all crushed material into one pan, then I ran 6 half scoops from that into the CC and put the powder aside. When the CC decided on a smoke break I decided to sieve all the sample so I could pan out the powder from both at least while putting the rest aside again. The host rock was slightly damp when I dollied and softer than the quartz, it compacted in the bottom of the dolly and I had to scrape the bottom to loosen the powder up. The 5 specs came from the initial dolly crush on this sample, I noticed in the loupe it was rough and thought it was odd thinking it had come through the CC, after crushing the rest of the sample tonight for no colour I think the gold had released from the host rock in the dolly...........if that makes sense?
