[QUOTE="Guest, post: 516599"] Hey mate, Crush the one you cracked open. Pan the crushings with some other dirt and see what heavies are there. Something doesnt look quite right with the gold coloured picture. Looks minerally/crystally??? I hope it is gold cause there will be more where that come from. Dont rely on the detector only. There could be fine gold that is not detectable by the 4500. Any rocks that look like that, gather up and test by crushing and panning. Looks like ancient conglomerate from an old river bed. Maybe there was no reef, there were chasing the ancient river bed???? Cheers and good luck!!! RS [/QUOTE]
