Thanks 63'. Broke the boulder down to manageable pieces and hid them in a good stash spot that's always served me right and brought home what I thought would contain values. Crushed it up pretty good, ran it thru the blue bowl. Goin back into the canyon today to hump the rest out and probe the other half of the boulder. Maybe take a peek up hill/stream a ways. There's an old hydraulic mine tailings pile within 100 yards of where I found it. Lots and lots of quartz. Darndest thing, some of it smells like sulfur/rotten eggs.

Ill check in with y'all in a couple days. Got to go stretch out my legs. Maybe I'll start a journal and let y'all see what I do and some of my finds.

Pyrites often smell like sulfur....https://www.google.com/search?q=doe...ome..69i57.21126j1j7&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8
