JP, To add to your discussion. I had a client who is since gone who said that he used to pick up nuggets of gold in much the same way in a place called Molega Mines down here.He showed me a case(glass) which he kept them in in the raw form.Companies came down and drilled and left telling the locals they had to spend a certain amount of money to hold their interest in the claim and left.The old fellow told me if someone came down and asked him he would have told them where they could have picked a better site.He said they were not even near the old mine site and wondered where they got their info and maps. Appears most of the mining in the Caledonia area where the Gold Rush of 1890 was was mostly surface and anyone that came in to do drilling never drilled where the old surface mines were.But they heard of the suface nuggets staked a claim and left.Surface nuggets like diamonds do not necessarily indicate the motherlode but with some research they may lead to bigger things.JUST an ASIDE.
