" i could see the glitter of gold dust on the boots" Mark Twain
" I could see the glitter of gold dust on the boots of miners as came into the Bar " Mark Twain many experts shrug this statement as nothing more than creative writing. Well how wrong they are . The 40 by 30 miles around here produced 30 million ozs of gold. At the moment i hunting a hill, once called "The Mountain of Gold " by the chiness gold miners. This site was considered the 6 th richest deposit of gold in the 19th century. Gold was mined here many different ways for over a 100 years.
With all the spring rain which the wetest ever recorded. How much has been washed out. I managed 4 grams on 60 feet of dirt track and the other coins and relic came of one section of the hill.Managed the finds on 2 evening for about 4 hours in total.
