[QUOTE="Syndyne, post: 13463, member: 378"] Hi all, While I'm here, I have a photo of the pieces that were simply sitting on the slick plate at the back of the sluice on the very first morning of testing in April 2012. They didn't budge at all at the back of that AM sluice. Dad and I, with great excitement and slight bewilderment, simply lifted the boiler box up (while still running) and picked them out then went straight back to feeding the HB. There was also around a gram of flakes and finer gold in the riffles for the full day. I saw nothing in the catch pan at the front of the sluice at the end of the day which was a great relief. Didn't get a chance to take a shot of the finer gold as we usually just mix it into the alluvial gold jar. [img]https://www.prospectingaustralia.com/forum/img/member-images/378/1370508844_nuggets.jpg[/img] The larger nugget weighs exactly one gram. Haven't weighed the other pieces as yet, but even they are twice the size of the piece I detected at Stuart Town with the GPX5000! :lol: Cheers, Shauno. [/QUOTE]
