Fantastic :) I'm hoping to get back up there soon. Maybe I can get that lucky.
We spent 16hrs dredging to get it got lots of fines but I am going to have to use a miller table to seperate just to dang tedious for me.We just upgraded the nozzle and hose to 2.5 inch for next trip.

That's a lot of time on the dredge. Haven't been able to talk myself into putting one together yet LOL I think I'll try building a highbanker soon. We'll see how that goes first.

nice gold. you may find it cheaper and just as satisfying to collect your black sand cons in mason jars until the end of the season. I still have jars from
30 years ago that i roll around to show newbies the super fine gold in black sand.

Okie, We wish the best for you and yours. Sorry we were not able to meet up with you and do a little prospecting, while you were here. Hopefully you will have good luck with some of that NC gold.:thumbsup:

Nice finds...I was wondering how you did for the weekend. My boys and I was there for the metal detecting and also got to try out the dredge for the 1st time with the Greenville Chapter GPAA. I spoke to you for a few minutes. Looks like you had a pretty nice set up.

Hello Raycan we only had the three big pieces with a few flakes and a ton of fines that are just specks in the pan.It was the best trip we have had.I went back Sat dropped into same hole got 2 flakes and a bunch of fines.For me it is all about the hunt I never expected the nuggets but boy what a sweet suprise.I should be going back in 2 weeks.

I want to make another trip to K-River this summer before school starts. I still have to pan the concentrates from what we dredged that afternoon. I have a feeling that we got nothing though, since we were learning with several other people. I was curious to how much they were getting out of the Kiamichi. Not bad for being within a two hour drive from home. Take care.

Here is a picture of my boys dredging...I believe you are in the background.............

very nice! OBP just remeber to rerun your material over that miller table several times to get all the gold.and adjust the water or the tilt of the table for each other run!

Thanx russau I have never run a table so I will rerun everything several times until I feel good about my setups.
