I say bust those rocks up. Looks like you guys need to divert the creek to drain that hole.

Looks like some migmatite and pegmatite in those pics too. Both are typical of gold bearing creeks in SC. I need to get with you and shoot some video, Matt. Do I get a cut of those pickers too? Lol. Yep, you and Ywevis...the big gold guys.

We usually bust the conglomerate to the original host rock and then bust it apart as well and break the layer of fusion crust as well. I know this is the layer the chunkies are coming from. We have worked this same hole since last summer and gave it a break over the winter. The over hang I'm standing under usually washes out more with each rain increasing the area we can work next to the edge.

Notice how Loki carefully avoided answering the question about my cut of the gold? Lol. With all the gold he's finding, he should be handing out vials to the poor.

It looks like a lot but prolly about 4-5 grams total weight for all... And I have no problem sharing, now where did I put that blow torch and catch pan to cut the nuggets in half?... LOL. Anyone who prospects with me knows I hold onto the gold for big splits. at least that's what I tell them. hahahaha just kidding. We always do 50/50 splits when its time, I'm just not saying when its time lol.

Loki I would really like to come down and check it out sometime. That is some of the coolest stuff I've seen. I'm a bit of a rock hound as well.
