Platypus Strikes Gold Again

Well I went out with my uncle again and Larry to the spot, where I got those last nuggets. All got skunked but me, I ended up with 4 nuggets for a totale of 7.8 DWT. Heres some pictures of the gold and the area, My uncle and I. I'm the one in Cammo and my uncle in blue jeans. The Platypus is an awsome coil, with Black widow headphons and DETacc AMP, and DOC's Lithium system. My uncle was useing a Nuggetfinder 16 e DD coil. He score the last time, but the Platypus beat them hands down this time. Grubstake
 
Hey, that's some nice ones there. I like the looks of that ground. Looks like old tailings and throwouts. Much like some of the areas I hunt in the foothills. I've done very well in some, struck out in others, and dug an ton of trash. Looks like it's along the banks of a small creek with diggings spiderwebbed out into some of the feeders streams.

More of an Elluvial Fan than creeks, not to much water up there, only when it rains, which its been doing since yesterday and has not stoped. Grubstake
 
Nice pictures.
You really earn your gold beeping in that sort of bush. Is there any shallow looking open ground nearby you can beep in?

All Right Grubstake. Way to go. Keep it up and you will have to find another place to hunt. HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
Any work from Shep yet? How did he do at the big hunt? Talk to you later.

Yeh Mike, I talked to him on the phone this evening, he didn't score any gold. But said he had a good time with everyone. He was tired. Grubstake
