[QUOTE="loamer, post: 28984, member: 981"] You are on a good spot Rod!! It has everything you could want. Costeans are a very good sign. They are well worth a detect as well. As for the deeper holes - don't risk it. They could have false bottoms and judging by the height of the mullock compared to the depth of the holes, I would say the whole lot may give way. Mullock heaps are a very good way to learn how the geology works. If you see smallish holes that almost look like shovel holes (and I mean small) scattered about, its the old timers taking samples as well - loaming!! These are a good sign as well. An ounce a week to survive - they did not muck around wasting time for nothing - on the booze every night and chasing woman is not considered a waste of time either!! [/QUOTE]
