cemented river bottom on bedrock, does it pay out

[jasonm1979]

I have been working an old hydraulic mine in placer county for the past 5 months, I have come across 5 monitor mounds and the one that is lowest to the center of the ancient channels is cemented. I have taken around 20 samples from 10 feet above bedrock down to inside bedrock. there is a layer of dark brown to almost black material with square quarts sitting on top of the bedrock, with a brown rust colored clay or something along those lines. the quarts has not been washed by a river and in 50 percent of the bedrock that i have uncovered this is occurring . I know the bedrock around that area is rich but since this is virgin is it worth processing , my samples say no but the amount of gold I have recovered from the exposes bedrock tells me yes.

does anyone have experience in processing this type of material ? also Id like to add some of the larger gold I have found in this area have been off color, dark red to almost black

Sorry I cant help you, but you can try the gold prospecting area. There seems to be some very smart people in there. Just ignore the rude comment and good luck.

That's why I apologized. I had read some postings earlier where they were in the Yamasheeta/treasure-hunting-scam-like vein, (guess you aren't allowed to spell that word correctly, the Yami-word), and I lumped your posting with theirs.
Again, I apologize, and if it wasn't for spell check, I'd be misspelling every other word.
Hopefully I read your post incorrectly.
Carl

And I wish to never grow up.

I say dig it up...you could get lucky. Maybe really lucky and find a nice chunk of gold. Just my 2 cents. Niffler
