RICH RUSTY GOLD QUARTZ SPECIMEN 4.36 GRAMS NATURAL GOLD BEARING ROCK:
$280.00

CALIFORNIA GOLD QUARTZSPECIMENSIERRA NEVADA MTNS,CALIFORNIA Photos are enlarged representations of the quartz & gold. Ruler, if shown,is1/4\"wide (actual size).Straight from the Mother Lode - this slug contains heavy \'color\', a thick concentration of high-purity gold bubbling out from much of the rock. Sings through my Gold Bug like she was a microphone. For gold aficionados and prospectors, this colorful rock packed with gold is what you\'re looking for. My headline says \'rusty\', so ironcap cakes it here and there. Mostly though, it\'s amber-like quartz, lots of gold, and some colorful oxidation staining. If it were wire-wrapped in gold, I would wear this one. Back when I did gold soldering, I used 18K yellow stock for jump rings and such. A higher-karat gold alloy would come closer to matching the gold in this specimen. California\'sSierra Nevada Mtns is the origin. My prices aren\'t based on the amount of gold contained, but on the fact that it\'s there; visible to the naked eye; planted inside the host rock by Mother Nature, not by a man\'s hand.

Gold-bearing properties tend to be highly nuanced. If you\'re looking to buy a claim outright instead of locating and staking one yourself, there\'s a chance that what someone is promoting, be it placer or lode, holds no minable gold whatsoever. A person can also own or gain mineral rights to a claim with minable gold, but then never receive authorization to mine it. That\'s the pits, cause without permits, efforts to mine may wind up with you being shut down, fined, or maybe even losing your equipment. Maybe your plan of operations won\'t require the use of water. That can actually help you out since there\'s other ways to extract gold from the ground besides sluicing. In this business, creative solutions, thinking outside the box, sometimes produce surprising results; easier-than-expected fixes. Call it holistic mining if you will. For instance, consider dry-mining with drywashers or using metal detectors. In coarse gold country, that may be your answer. Ask yourself if maybe hand-mining might be the solution. Do what you can to mine because, if you have the minerals rights, then, by gum, it\'s your right to. With current gold prices, a sturdy, hard-working person would be a fool not to process as much good, gold-bearing gravel as possible by any and every means possible.
Most shallow claims in the lower contiguous 48 states which contained good placer ground at one time have been hammered by three or four generations of miners. One to four foot deep gravels are relatively easy to mine by hand methods. There\'s one perfectly-logical explanation for a worked out claim. Deeper gravel deposits with undisturbed expanses of ground, on the other hand, may hold gold close to bedrock. Only testing will prove that. On hard-hit, shallow-bedrock claims, your best opportunity of finding payable amounts of gold lie in recent redeposits of flood gold. With sky-high gold prices, someone using a system designed to capture super-fine gold might fare well reworking the old tailings. You should entertain the notion that tailings themselves are comprised of a high percentage of gold ore mixed in with the other non-auriferous alluvium.
With respect to enrichment in recent times, promoters who say their claim is replenishing itself may be accurately describing a claim. What isn\'t mentioned is \'how much\' the claim is being replenished. I seriously doubt many claim promoters know. In some ways, that\'s advantageous because it means ground hasn\'t actually been prospected recently. No two claims are ever quite the same.Comprehensive sampling is imperative if you\'re ever to prove up a property. Beyond that, better recovery systems have the potential to make formerly unprofitable mines profitable.
Beware of ‘plaster miners’ i.e. those who hang papers i.e. \'plaster\' a copy of the recorded claim notice on a location monument, but who actually know little to nothing about the attributes or non-attributes of the claim. If the area has a good gold-mining history, here again, you might have found yourself a \'gem in the rough\'. Through the years, thousands of barren or unworkable claims have been promoted and/or sold to unsuspecting, gullible, neophyte gold miners. Even if a drainage runs through miles of old tailings and virgin (gold-bearing) high bar, another hundred years probably would not bring down enough gold to replenish your claim to profitability status should gold go to $3000. By the way, since this was written several years back, gold has reached $2000 again.
Occasionally, one finds a river or creek with excellent surface redeposits. What happens sometimes is that gold, if present at all, is concentrated on or near bedrock surrounded by packs of behemoth boulders. How do you test bedrock with twenty or thirty feet of overburden above it and boulders the size of VWs down there? You don\'t. That\'s how. Not your average Joe like you or me. You might get lucky enough to score a shallow-bedrock claim containing very few big rocks; a claim which holds surface deposits, bedrock gold, and bench gravel reserves to boot. No one will ever know that until they\'ve tested the ground. Whether you\'re twenty feet underwater working a boulder pack on bedrock or opening up an ancient terrace five hundred feet above the river-bottom, breaking into \'the bank\', i.e. pulling big rocks out of the way so you can access the gravels around and amongst them will undoubtedly pose challenges you had not forseen, were never informed of, and very likely will not be able to overcome.

Thanks forchecking outmy store. I hope you find rich ground ahead. Gold ofEldorado3-12-13
