namster halves total for the week, 17 boxes (updated)

[namster]

Add Sat 1/21/12: One of my bank 1 branches called and said that a missed order came in today, so I picked up 4 boxes. All skunks. My first 4-5 boxes from this bank produced very well and stopped, almost nothing now. I have been dumping all of my tailings into bank 2 but now im thinking this may not be a good idea since bank 2 is actually producing. Maybe there is no sense to be made of any of it, maybe there is. Dont know.


Picked up 13 boxes this week, one of my Monday and Friday banks forgot to order, otherwise it would have been 19 boxes. Silver is up, which makes this hobby even more fun especially when you are pulling silver

Bank 1:

1) Skunk
2) Skunk
3) Skunk
4) 68
5) Skunk
6) Skunk
7) Skunk
8 ) Skunk
9) Skunk

$30 CWR) 67

Bank 2:

1) Skunk
2) 65, 68
3) 64, 65, 67x 2, 68
4) 68
5) 67, 68
6) 67x 2, 68x 3
7) Skunk
8 ) 64 (obverse ender ), 66

Whats funny about these totals is I have been dumping EXCLUSIVELY into bank 2. The idea was to get deeper into bank 1s supply. Go figure.

only 2 skunks out of 8 from bank 2 is pretty good - esp considering it's your dump bank.

Haha, yeah I did copy your box totals layout. The pic, just seemed logical to lay them out by date.

that's what I was thinking too - I almost mentioned it in my first post. But it is a good way to lay 'em out for a pic.

good luck out there guys & H$H!

OP updated.

rough week @ bank 1. Do you have another bank to dump at since bank 2 is starting to produce pretty good now?

I do have another bank but the test boxes I got from them did pretty well. I think I might do one more week of boxes with bank 1 and if it craps out ill cancel my halves and dump there. I figure I have to make it through the pallet eventually. I do know of one other CRHer who dumps into bank 1 but I have never seen him dump more than one bag.

like you mentioned in your op about whether there is any sense to the whole ordering process - it's hard to figure with any degree of certainty or rationale how boxes will be from week to week (or why). I had my 2 best boxes (56 keepers total) last week from my main p/u bank and the week before my 2 boxes from this bank were both skunks. I'm real interested to find out if I've hit a silver vein and if my lucky silver streak at this bank will continue. It might just be that both my boxes from this bank next week will be skunks again.

Good luck to you though - whatever you decide.
