Very nice GT. Curious, how did you find that crack? It seems there is nothing around it except flat land.

pinch

Gold Tramp,is the vein pinching out at the bottom or what?Are you following the lead?

got a little more to dig but the vein turns into what i call mundic, gets like jasper, the bottom altered to slip with some small vein remnants, these veins down here very rarely go
deep most of them are shallow surface pockets, oldtimers got the deep ones but they still left a few out there.

My latest claim papers ... the TNT... has come back from Yavapai county. It looks like I will be the owner for sure. As to how much gold? MISERABLE showing the last time out! Some color but below expectations. But it is an 80 acre claim so I will have LOTS of room for many holes to dig and pediment to check with the Gold Bug 2. Just a matter of time. Thanks for asking Herb. One of Tim's claims is giving up some good chunky gold... but that's his story so I will back off for now. TTC
