thnks for looking it is hard due to how small it is, but one day i will find some for sure
 

NS!! Kuger!! could very well be right, but it does not have a copper look on my screen but different pc's show different colors, i am a newbe to never found gold never had a chance not any around me. those photos look like what i have seen on here that is said to be gold and black sand. if it was mine i would keep it seperate and labeld where it came from, do not know if i would dig more there or not you will have to deside that. keep hunting you saying that it flattend out but stayed togather sounds right for gold. try to find someone that is a gold hunter to take you out or just look at your sample that is the only way to prove Kuger!! wrong or right cause like he said does not look like gold to him but hard to be sure, i am sure he ment to add in photos. oh by the way if i ever order paydirt it will most likey be from him.

getting it checked out on monday
 

I'm a newbie at gold, but I'm pretty good with a camera. Whenever you take a pic of something like this, use your macro option on your camera (if you have one). Most digital cameras come standard with it. The icon is a flower and will take the best up close pics.

welcome to t -net,,, that was a web cam that i used
 

When you swirl the water around enough to barely move the black sand does the "gold" move or does it stay put? If it stays put there's a good chance it's the real thing.
