[QUOTE="22shells, post: 237369, member: 3817"] I don't think it's tourmaline, there's black tourmaline (schorl?) nearby and it's different- although in the photo it does look a bit like it. Don't get a signal from tourmaline. This stuff is definitely not magnetic. There's plenty of black sand in the creek and some of this stuff, also quite a bit of fine gold, although it takes about a year to get a gram! On average might get about 30 little specks of gold from a couple buckets of dirt. Might have to try a streak test, cheers! [/QUOTE]
