Howdy All,
I managed to find some really nice pieces of ore but when crushed it releases some really fine dust. It shows up nice in the pan but danged if I can figure out how to seperate it from the "left overs".  My poor talent at panning is prolly the root of the problem however I know that there are methods for recovering this shiney stuff! ;) I've heard of float gold and I think this is some of what I see in the pan... what's a guy to do?  Happy Trails, Johnny |
