FAST REFUND OFFERED (If, for any reason, you're not happy with this item)I poured through old mining dumps for years looking atorange-yellow-rustyrock through a loupe. Most of it unquestionably was gold ore, but not once did I find a piece of it containing visible gold. This 'gold quartz specimen' category is another place where you can see lots of those wanna-be rocks. They're almost always perched right up at the top of page one. Go figure, eh. Fortunately, I get to trade in 'the real Mccoy', not leaverites.

Years spent detecting, sampling ores, drywashing, sluicing, and dredging in the bush are how this enterprise came about roughly twenty years ago. Gold of Eldorado was opened to liquidate my personal finds and jewelry I had made from natural gold nuggets and flakes. I'm no geologist, mining engineer, or 'legendary miner' like the braggadoccios on reality TV. What I learned was gained from digging a thousand craters looking for the miserable stuff. My degrees came from the School of Slinging Dirt and Broken Pickaxes, the University of Rolling Boulders. I began diving for gold in 1983 and stuck with suction dredging for thirteen summers. When not mining or making jewelry, I enjoyed fraternizing with my fellow prospectors, rock-hounds, sun-lovers, geritol gypsies, and various artist-types all following theirown elusive dreams. Most of the vendors I met down in Arizona shared their knowledge generously. Some specialized in antiquities, beads, knapping, hand-crafted artwork, lapidary, or maybe they sold imported goods gathered from allover the world. If you've not been to Quartzsite,that's some of what you'll find down in the outback.
PLACER GOLD REDEPOSITSWith present-day gold prices, the ground rules have changed. Paydirt isn't what it used to be. Gold isn't any easier to find than it ever was. The difference now is it's worth. A 700% increase isn't anything to sneeze at. The 49ers left a lot of gold; however, if a succession of miners reworked previously worked-out diggings, there might not be much left on those claims.Take that into accountif you're shopping for unpatented claims.During my years spent desertmining, most prospectors I knew would consider one pennyweight (24 Grains)(1/20th of an oz) a good day's haul. Same might be said for most creekand riverbed prospectors.A lot about what constitutes profit depends on your project scale, expenses, how extensive the deposits were to begin with, how hard you're willing to work, and howmuch goldyou'll be satisfied with.It doesn't seem to matter how many times claims were worked, invariably, a little gold gets left behind. The biggest questionsto ask yourself are"can you find it", "can you work it",and "will it pay?" Thanks forchecking out our digs. Gold ofEldorado1-14-13
