WOW thank you very much I live in Bridgetown WA and TO MY NORTH , WEST, EAST, AND SOUTH I HAVE FOUND A FEW GRAMS HERE AND THERE. GREAT FINDS AFTER WASH OUTS. I HAVE A PIECE OF QUARTS ITS VERY CLOUDY QUARTS WITH DARK GREY MINERALS RUNNING THROUGH THE QUARTZ. YOU CAN SEE CLEARLY THIN RUNS OF GOLD IN THOSE DARK SECTIONS THE WHOLE THING WEIGHS 45 kg lol I’m guessing but at least 2 ounces would be in there. But it’s a nice specimen.. PLEASE FORGIVE ME MY GEOLOGY LINGO IS FAR FROM SATISFACTORY.😊 THANK YOU FOR HELPING TO UNDERSTAND MY REGION.ITS CRAZY THE AMOUNT OF MINERALISATION.🇦🇺👍❤️
I have been pleasantly surprised when crushing up a small specimen with how much gold there was. Mine had ironstone and quartz so couldn’t do a specific gravity test but recommended you do it if you can as you may be surprised by how much there is. Cheers
I am civil engineer but i did very wide scientific researches about this zone It formed in hydrothermal volcanic mountains In base of the mountains By hydrothermal soulutions in high pressure and heat soultion the gold concentrated by carbon which be activated and absorbs gold also other metal in it and around it Such as active carbon in cyanide sulation More rich layers of graphite more rich of gold The iron sulfur ,zinc ,lead are found there in layers Mountain is very hiegh and black when you dig in it you smell sulfur
Great talk! Thanks for sharing this on RU-vid. This was very interesting and relevant to my work. I would like to find your paper and think about doing some similar work.
