I picked Miner detecting....Why???....well that 9 pounder just found not too long ago should answer it...to be able to find no less then 20oz....detecting would have a better chance of finding that much in one day....RIGHT!!!.......lol giggle.gif

I'm with ScottKS.

I would think the best chance for 20 ozt would be a beeper finding a vein with a lot of nuggets in a small area.
The dredger may find the vein also, but more than likely, they wouldn't be working in a virgin area.

In all fairness, I didn't finish... with my luck, once I trip over it'll cause me to either stumble off a cliff or fall on my pick. wacko.gif
The nugget's value will be equal to medical bills incurred from the mishap.

Good one Swizz kick_can.gif crutches.gif slaphead.gif

I'd actually said other on my vote when this thread started. I was thinking about all the new drill results that had been coming out of Nevada last year. Some of those results were spectacular both in ounces per ton estimates (some double digits per ton) as well as depth/widths and lengths estimates of the ore bodies that are massive in size! I think those drillers were finding more than 20 ounces in a day. Not in Colorado but it's darn close. biggrin.gif
