Went out hunting with GoGoGopher today but we were pretty much skunked short of a few clad and half a silver plated spoon. However, when I got home I thought I'd hit my yard again as we just moved here a few months ago. After a few hours I got a strong hit and while digging I nearly had a heart attack. I pulled this hunk of ore out of the ground and boy was it heavy. Praying to the flying spaghetti monster and jeebus that it was silver the wife and I went inside to do a little specific gravity calculation and sadly it came out to be tin. We are still pretty amazed though as we've found no other signs of tin so far.
