A Few Nuggets (I Suppose) from the area

[High Etiquette 009]

Here are some of my best work since I started to discover some payload (n. Carolina) in October of last year. Bear with me as all I can provide for now is the photos, i.e. no melting/smelting has been attempted yet on these. That will be coming in the next few months for the final test results. I think to get them to become yellow and or pure if that's even possible would be a sluice box and stream may be required. It looks to me like these have to be at least 12 - 14K. I would like to hear your differing opinions and I'll be glad to help you out with any questions you may have for me.

Dirty rocks

I don’t see any gold nugget’s just rocks.

No amount of running water in a stream or sluice box is going to turn these rocks yellow (into gold). Wishful thinking in my opinion.

How did you determine the karat?

 

[Emil W]

I see rocks. I think you'll need to let us know what you have after smelting.

Can't tell from pics, but looks like our NC hematite
