[QUOTE="Crocket, post: 606822, member: 20967"] Found this handsome specimen in brown/red soil on another steep slope not too far over a dividing ridge from my other finds shown previously. Again the old mine shafts are about 40m up above on the top of the hill. Found a few other sub-gram pieces closer to the mine in red volcanic soil. The nugget looks bigger in this photo sitting on my knee than it really is. It has mainly quarts on the other side with gold showing through in places. The piece weighs 23.83gms and after doing the 'in-water' specific gravity weighing and calculations it estimates there is 14.97gms of gold in it. All these pieces have the 'coral' close-to-source reef look to them.
