Spent the day on a claim on Lytle Creek

[scoy]

Hi All,

This was my second visit to this spot. My girlfriend and I and a buddy of mine went out on sat and spent the day.
I have been eye balling this one spot 2 weeks ago so I took my cal sluice out dug a a hole behind a boulder. Afterwards we panned the concentrates and found a little color. Just made my day!

Nice little pickers!

Like the look of that color.

Nice little nuggets there. Yeah, you "found a little color!" Very nice; I'll bet that made your day; would have made mine, too.

Thanks for sharing the picture; very nice encouragement for all of us.

May your next pan be even heavier!

 

[scoy]

thank you. Hoping we can do a repeat next visit.

MAN, i want so bad to be able to find gold of that size. 90% of all of mine is -100 that i find....

 

[scoy]

The black sand I have saved has a lot of flour gold in it. I will save it up and figure a way to run it. Whats the best way to get it out??

 

[Duckwalk]

Id suggest a miller table. Set at the right water speed and angle i think its faster than a blue bowl

Thanks for including the paper clip. Had me going there for a minute Still, very nice gold. Just pan it out. You do have a sniffer bottle right? Tables or Bowls come later. Once the fever's really got a hold.

...right...and you may not ever need more than a 50 mesh classifier and a few drops of Jetdry. Really!

 

[scoy]

that's why I put the clip in the pict. it looks nicer then it is!

 

[NeoTokyo]

Very nice color, yes the paperclip helps to get an idea for the size since we all probably thought the same thing, pickers in the bottom of a 14" pan.

 

[scoy]

yes I can see how that could have been interpreted. I am glad I put in. none the less it was still color!

Now put a dime in the pan and rephotograph!

You know ,I've always had better luck at Lytle Creek than EFSG for some reason. I'd always work where the the bigger rocks are. G/L

 

[scoy]

I have seen some very interesting areas that need to be checked

 

[Eastforklocal]
