hi all, Been spending all my hunting time at one site. Been too the site every night this week, after work. Quite a large mining claim and there are many shafts on the site. Mostly picking off small pieces of gold around the Crushing batteries. Quite junky near buildings foundations. Forget the blacksmith shop , choke, steel and mountains of rubbish and broken hand- made red clay bricks.

With Ground Mineralization and hard as concrete you earn every gram of gold. Few relics always a bonus. Never many coins at these mine sites. The hard rock miners got paid little and the owners grew mega- rich . History never changes from place to place much.

I really enjoy reading your posts too! :icon_thumright:

This is a very nice looking brass buckle . . . is it very old? :icon_scratch:

Cheers,
Dave

The buckle is horse related. Age ?? Horses where used right down too the 1950's At a guess this one late 19th century
