Those sure are pretty.....The lower pipe signal was very weak..I don’t know if it was because it is very small or what....When I was dredging my claim on the Feather River I found a lot of Garnets....North Africa has a large Diamond Claim North of Red Bluff Ca.....Art
Yup...they are pretty. The pyrope is a special type of garnet. They come up to the surface in kimberlite pipes (volcanoes). They are one of the better indicators to tell you where kimberlite might be, along with chromian diopside, which is emerald green. Here's a pic of some of both I dug about 3 weeks ago.

I found mine in my sloos box looking for meteoric mater. I have also found impact diamonds. And the strangest thing. I got piture but after grinding three times in mortes and pestual. Using dry seperation rincing with wink a floridic acid. I saw behind these crystal clear stones with dark inclusions, Evan a dark latus structure truning to crystal clear. But behind these I found a and have piture of a diamond fly. Could a carbon life form with anough heat and presure be turned to diamond. Impact events haen in micro and mila seconds. Ive got pitcher. But sadly lost that speck of dust

Those are all MHz....You would need a set of rods to find and follow the signal. I have experimented with Cell Phones...They have a ÂĽ mile range and about 2 foot in depth..You can make a set of rods from metal coat hangers

I guess, before I responded, I should have asked if you found those sites by dowsing? If you did...I'm moderately impressed.

I can not speak for the other map dowsers on this board....the intent of my map dowsing is to put people in the area where they have a chance of recovering treasure...Before I started to use Dowsed maps I spent a lot of time just wandering around the dessert.....Now I have a good idea of where search...Art

Thanks Art, Okie and Jim. Looks like some interest in diamonds. I've only been up there once and that was last month. I did manage to find some garnets and a few diopside at the last place I went to. I have been studying this area for about a year.

That image covered a lot of area so I've got some new images closer in from the dowses that were done. Thanks so much for the dowses. I know how private or confidential information can be but I'm about ready to open up on this one. So if anyone has any questions don't be afraid to ask. But I believe Jim is the expert here. I'm the newbie. Thanks Jim.

So if you want to keep dowsing here are the new images.

Hey bookcliff....Just heading out to the mountains..I am going to an old deer camp in a aspen grove that has a few marked trees in it....the last time I was there I was just a Deer Hunter (20 plus years ago)...I don’t know if there is any treasure there but I will enjoy a large camp fire tonight with some old friends....Art

I just plotted all of these on a map and they are very close to each other. They are with a mile or two of each other. This is also the area I was in 4 weeks ago when I found garnets.

Dowsing is using Rods to find treasure...the other is using an electronic signal to find treasure...some electronic units require Rods to follow the signal.....Just because it is required to use rods does not make it Dowsing....Art

Thanks Art. Let me rephrase the question. How do I use a smart phone or any phone to find gems, precious metals or PGMs? Do I need an app? Do I use the phone with rods? What phones will work? Anyone?

I have already said more than I should have

  1. Read Me First

This forum is limited to the discussion of simple, inexpensive (or FREE!) devices and techniques. That means NO discussion of electrical devices of any kind. Feel free to discuss L-rods, Spanish dip needles, map dowsing, and other dowsing related subjects.

Because of past experience with similar forums, I will not have much patience in the forum, so if you veer off topic you just might find your post deleted and your permissions restricted. If you have some constructive information to share about dowsing then great, feel free to post!! If you want to post just to toot your own horn or to sneak in links to your long range locator website, then beware - I am ready to ban you! PERMANENTLY!

Thanks,
Marc Austin
