🔎 UNIDENTIFIED Alluvial Gold?

[Jackstraw20]

A friend sent me a photo of what he says is alluvial gold he has found in ancient riverbeds in Colorado over the years. Can anyone verify if he is correct and this is truly "alluvial gold."
Thanks very much!

Pepper and crash. IfI had a lot of gold I would help you, but alas, I have none. If we only knew some kind soul that had lots of gold to help us. Let us all think golden thoughts and maybe help will come our way.

Thank you for that kind reply trav.You,re a good man with a good heart and I know your words have iron in them. Alas,all the golden thoughts have brought me naught. The only help I,ve received has been if I helped myself. I feel you and pepperj have had the same experience.

4.59 a gallon by the way.

How much is snuff now?

 

[traveller777]

Assays be hanged! How about that helping humanity thing? In particular this one human right here.

I wish I had pots of gold to help you, crash.

Any word on possible assay, jack?

I thought that was Russia?

That is impressive, crash. Give that man a cigar.

Just popped into my head from an ancient quote by somebody or other!

Winston Churchill - 1939 - “I cannot forecast to you the action of Russia. It is a riddle wrapped in a mystery inside an enigma; but perhaps there is a key. That key is Russian national interest.”

Some things never change. ;-)

Good job. Charlie. You win a cigar too. But I only had one so you and crashbandicoot have to share it.

Many thanks! Indeed it was Churchill,a man we could probably use today.

Charlie can have the whole thing! I like cigars and I like Charlie,but separately please! No offense Charlie!

The first thing to do would be a specific gravity test. Pure gold has a sp.gr. of 19.3, that is 19.3 times heavier than an equal volume of water.

 

[traveller777]

Don,t need no assay to know that either!

Amen brother

Well we haven't had power since a thu

We haven't had any power since a bad thunderstorm rolled through our area.

Exactly right

 

[Jackstraw20]

Sorry to hear that pepp,we,re supposed to get it later tonight.

I will send you you the gold ore if you like. Just pay the shipping and okay. I'm here to help

 

[Jackstraw20]

I am confused. Your original post said a friend sent you pictures of alluvial gold he had found and you wanted help from us with identification. But as your thread goes along you reference what you are doing with the alleged gold and even reference finding more. So what is story with that?
Pepper answered on assay options.

There is nobody that will do Tellurides, Archaen green belt gold, other hydrothermal deposits, etc. If you really can help others that need need it, I will send it to you

No ... not even close. Even if you boil it and put a ribbon on it. Not gold.

The guy/gal will probably now will never answer any of the questions asked. Maybe a few of the silent lurkers can pop in and contribute to this thread? 2 or maybe three regular members come to mind that reliably contribute in that respect to these types of intriguing posts.

 

[traveller777]

Let us know how your tests go. Good luck.
