First one of this type we have had & only 1 recorded on the UKDFD, so must be fairly scarce

It's strange how 3 years ago, we got 6 in a year, all different fields etc.. & now we can't get 1 in 2 solid years. Just the way it goes I guess, the land we have left this year is unlikely to produce a Gold but we will keep digging to the end.
