[QUOTE="shakergt, post: 417503, member: 10374"] Don't do it. I have been told you need to dig at least 100 holes a day to even break even. To make it worth while you would need to get around 25 to 30 ounces to give you around $42000 to $50000 going on todays gold price. If you can manage that in say six months well it might be worth doing. I don't know how much of that figure would be left by the time you take into expenses like fuel, food, bills etc. [/QUOTE]
