Last Saturday's gold take.

The Mighty Bradshaws give up a little more of that beautiful GOLD.
This run was only 8 - 5 gallon buckets. What a gorgeous day it was.

Re: Last Saturday's gold take.

Very good. Well done. My adventure up a creek in the weekend wasnt so crash hot. A bit of colour & that was it. No quartz specimen bits this time. Nothing worth while to post up here.
Looking at going up a different creek this weekend where I found a nice little picker in a crevice & a bit of fine flood gold up in the moss at the start of our summer. We are coming into autum (fall) now. I used the water out of my pressure hose to blast the moss & wash it into some rock pools & then broke up the moss washing it out thoroughly. Hooked the pressure hose up to my highbanker/banjo, that I had adapted to take a 2" suction noozle, & put through the moss material out of the water holes.

Here is the set up I used but this isnt at the spot I just mentiond.

Happy golding

I absolutely love it when a miner tells the god awful truth. I busted butt-had a great time-ain't it grand to be alive--and maybe next time I'll cash in. THANK YOU VERY MUCH!! Newbies see all the I found this and that and expect amazing results all the time. Mining is feast and famine. Hard work in the hot sun and my god oh what fun. tons a au 2 u 2-John

Mighty nice return for less than a quater yard of material!
I can't wait for spring. To get to digging ground right now I'd have to shovel snow 1st & then get a steam thawer to start on the ground
Oh well, another month or so...

Awesome return for your labors there, Is this area your claim or public lands? If its claimable that might be a good idea.
