[QUOTE="Goldtalk Leonora, post: 657237, member: 5638"] My thoughts go along like this.........reach down carefully and remove some in situ material off the stringer....dolly and grade it.....repeat at the various shafts and where the QTZ outcrops (you have the line of strike)....this will soon give you an idea of what your dealing with. I am sure there will be gold in it but the question is...will there be economic gold in it? Me personally, I just dig it all out with an excavator and then have a good look. What I am looking for is where the QTZ has 'bellied out' into a ballroom....this is where the good grade will lie. Thing is....why chase hardrock when your already set up to run alluvial? When you commented that you have ground with a cap and soil underneath and a good pedigree of AU on top.....why would you not concentrate on that!! Get that cap off and have a look underneath...that would be my number one priority. [/QUOTE]
