[QUOTE="Guest, post: 123760"] Jethro, 20 years of prospecting quartz reefs in my area have shown me that many times the mines and reefs were abandoned when the grades dropped to an ounce or less to the tonne. I have hundreds of mines mapped, reefs sampled, and new reefs found that were missed by the old timers in my patch. If you need advice re sampling and assaying I am happy to help you. The most important thing is to understand the geology and mineralogy of an area you wish to prospect, and then be extremely thorough in what you do. I have read everything and more that is available on my patch to better understand how the gold is formed and where it is likely to be. I have found real nice stone that was left by the old timers and missed by company geologists also. My advice is pick an area and then spend as much time as you can understanding it, then and only then is success more or less guaranteed. and even then things change. Good Luck. [/QUOTE]
