Hi All.... Thought you might like to see some native New Mexico Gold found recently with my drywasher here in the desert of New Mexico. Love to see that color in my pan........Thanks for looking.....Happy Hunting and be safe out there! "Orogrande"
Well if that doesn't give me hope nothing will. I have been filling sample buckets from some of the dry washes and seasonal streams in my local area (Alamogordo), no gold yet, only one location has yielded black sand. My panning technique seems to be decent, I am consistently find lead shot and shavings of lead. When I get some spare cash, I intend to join one of these organizations that will provide me with some locations to do some recreational gold prospecting.
