While out checking out old mine we happened across this one , so I took a bought 100 lbs to sample this weekend . Used crusher to take down to 200 mesh on site . Good guy , this is the one we were going to go to . Done research and found the mine was gold, silver , and platinum .
any one found this type of order?

Did you find anything in your sampling?

That red stuff looks nice. Limonite or some type of iron ore.

From the green on the rocks in the pics and especially so, the 1st and 3rd pics, I would say that it is fairly heavy in Copper deposits as well.
