Hi everybody! The weather was great today, though a bit cold, but I went to my favourite river to sample and prospect for a few hours.
The thing is that I can find gold ONLY a few inches deep. When I dig for 3-4 feet, I find no gold. This is really strange and I thought that I should find more gold and bigger in deeper depth. I really don't understand how is this possible.
I sampled a big area and it's the same thing again and again. I already dug three deep wholes and also I sampled 20-25 shallow areas. It's the same story. No gold if I go deeper than 5-10 inches...
What this "surface" gold means? Does this mean that the gold is new and the river is moving new gold because of the rains in this season?
Thank you for your help and suggestions as always!
Here are some pics. I also found some nice peaces in some shallow crevices:
