I would crush some samples of that and see what pans out, heavy mineralized quartz like that could contain gold values, that's very good looking, as far as potential
Hey loco oro how ya doing? Yeah that rock has some green in it too but hard to see in the magnefied Photo. Maybe copper. streak test yellow. Magnet test its not iron pyrite so don't know. Thanks for looking and its good to be able to post something again.
I am good, thanks for asking, well pyrite streaks black or dark grayish,and also is not magnetic, as for being copper, its not likely from the pics I see, native copper is unmistakable, and this does not look like any copper ores,although the yellow streak could be one of the iron minerals I see,gold streaks gold,I still suggest crushing some to as fine a grain as you can accomplish, then pan,your location warrants a constant vigil as you explore those viens, there were 2 gold mines not far from ya,very cool ,keep posting.
Thanks Eu_citzen for the info, you have helped me a lot. Great to see you still going and helping those that need it like me. I have been off for a while but its good to be back.
That looks a lot like what I find in my yard, I'd crush and sample it by paning it to see if there is gold, I still have a bunch to crush and sample �� I just figured out how to actually find gold and property pan for it about 3 weeks ago =p it took me a year! I was teaching my self how. Let me know if you want me to post some of the rocks I have to compare.
Thanks bandti7 Yes post a few so I can see them. I can not catch on to the panning process but going to Tennessee to see a friend of mine that is great with all this stuff and take some of samples to him to pan for me.
