Leadville, CO

Went out slumming so we wound up in Leadville. Not as much snow as I expected. I kicked around in some tailings and picked up some samples that greenhorns like me would believe contained gold. They look cool, anyway.

That second photo is really cool. ok I'll ask, is that gold in that rock?

I don't think so Seger. I think it's a 'Pyrite inclusion' or whatever. I could sell some shares in that mine based on that sample to the tenderfoots from the flatlands, though.
