Chris Gholson 1,064 Report post Posted October 12, 2018 A good friend & customer of mine here in the US just sent over these photos of an outstanding gold/quartz specimen he recently found. While out swinging his Minelab GPZ 7000 he picked up a faint, but repeatable signal. After digging down over two feet he unearths this lump of quartz. A closer look shows that it is shot through with gold!!! I don’t believe he knows the actual metal content yet, but a specific gravity test will give a very good estimate…What a great way to kick off the season! Congratulations to the finder, and thanks for sharing! P.S. if anyone out there has photos they wish to share, but would like to remain anonymous, please send them over. You can email or text them. We love seeing this stuff! 6 beatup, Bugler, frank c and 3 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
