Camino and I went last Tuesday to a spot Ive known about and havn't dug, Camino and Gravelwasher have hit it a couple times..color everytime and we know the source.... 
a section of an anchient tertiary channel that is eroding into a modern stream gold on one side in the bank we never touched bedrock....and in the sweet crevices and cracks in the bedrock on the otherside........nuthin'.......thats why sampling is so important.......the gold and lack of it is seperated by mere feet........you'll see Camino shoveling into the new two stage classifier I built.....my new abs drop riffle sluice running into a keene just in case(we did a check of course we found a very few tiny specks as to be expected our recovery however is way over 95%)and some pics of the face of the cut tertiary channel.....look at the Quartz river rock hanging there.... there is Quartz everywhere wich is good cause the layers and deposits that were rich in these channels run with Quartz.....when we start getting closer and cleaning bedrock well............could be pretty good.

sorry joel) and I was on day seven of some bug my kids or coworkers conjuerd up for me having worked through the worst of it and did i rest on my days off
?? no i threw on my rubber boots drank a Coors and....was no help digging lol (sorry Joel)...... I set up the new sluice set up....joel tried out the new classifier wich is very productive 
got a couple of buckets full of classified material in no time...wich i ran and the new drop riffle is great you can see the gold in the first drop.....and it stayed even with me pokin' 
at it and harassin' it 
.And to have a sluice i can pick up and dump into a bucket after every bucket if i want 
and then have a cons bucket to rerun through a sluice I dont have to seperate into several components and then rebuild just to use....... 
I love you Drop Riffle 
we will take many long walks together.... 
She will be getting some plastic surgery however mainly a flair.....mmmmm flair...........
