this might be a dumb question:

I'll let the old hands steer me if I'm wrong but a serious swinger I know casts his own test pieces from aluminum. There have been a few technical uploads on here supporting this theory. Granted you can't beat gold for recognizing gold but he has a point...testing a one oz piece of yellow in every different area will eventually lend itself to unwanted attention.

On the plus side it's very easy to melt and mould and has a tendency to very nugget like in its shape. Anyway food for thought whilst on the subject.

I think he's been walking just ahead of me and leaving them in the ground..lol. I pulled out so many little nuggets just to find the scrape back to silver. They've been melted and look like they might be solder but the places we've found them it seems unlikely.

RS, me and probably a lot of other members are very thankful for the information above even if Simmo hasn't managed to respond.

It's amazing what comes out of a simple question on this forum.

I fully agree with you though, Simmo, I'm not saying that you're ungrateful but would be nice to hear it.
