[QUOTE="Guest, post: 378433"] Just my take on wires. I use 2 aluminium wires about 4mm have 100 percent strike rate on finding wash from 2 feet to 40 feet can pick forks in the old streams and have followed them for about half a km checking in with other claim holders as to how it fits with there mining. Unfortunately not all wash carries sapphires and not all sapphire bearing wash carries sapphires 100 percent of its length. I have found the wires react to sapphires but also to some quartz so I use them as a guide where to put a shaft on wash but can't guarantee sapphires as those little buggers just love to play hide and seek. Ps for Lefty I believe Inky is now chasing stones in that fossicing ground in the sky. Dave [/QUOTE]
