Beagleboy, I drove from Beechworth to Eldorado on Sunday tried a few spots there were a few people camped along the creek wonder how many were Prospecting members

My first find with the new 5000, needs a good cleanup though. I think there may be more yella stuff under the ironstone. Any suggestions as to how to clean it up without spoiling the look of the quartz? I don't want to stuff it up.........

Picked up around half an ounce over the last couple of weekends with the trommel.

Note the color difference of the gold in the second pic, much brighter gold coming from a deeper wash layer, in the same spot.
It seems to be getting a little coarser too.

 

[Tige]

Wow.. that's some great gold for a couple of weekends well done .. just finished building my own trommel, going to try it out in tuena in the next few days..
