Another pinch of gold from a short outing. This pic came out very clear so I thought I’d share :)

Three quick sample pans to test a new spot. All very small gold but considering it’s surface material, not a total fail. Would I make a trip for this? No. If I was there anyway, I’d still pan it :)

Digging has continued each of the last few months but the biggest news for me has been publication of two additional books (in November) and getting a clean Bill of health back from both the BLM and the PL-359 reviews of my claim filing- just last week!

Thats the kind of motivation that is needed to sit down and "tax". I hate it.. I can't bring myself to do it in one sitting. 30 min is the most I can stand lol

Found this today within the city limits of Denver. A picker (just barely) aka a Denver Nugget!
