Re: xxxxxxxxxxxxx
Dave/Veronica, Your story reminds me of an event going back many years.
Neil & I were detecting a creek when I heard Neil calling me, he sounded distressed and I immediately thought of snake bite.
Long and short of it he took me back to to a huge hole dug years before on the bank of the creek. Laying in the rubble someone had dug from the hole was a large ironstone specie (25gAU) they had left behind. Looking at the specie it appeared it had been broken away from a larger piece. We assumed someone had found the other piece and not rechecked the hole.
Neil is a lucky bugger has holes dug for him, on another occasion, (as you have mentioned) he came upon a freshly dug hole that hadn't been filled in. Swung his coil over it and got a faint signal. Thinking they had dropped some rubbish he scraped out the loose material and the signal improved. Another 100 mm down out came a 29g pure nugget.
We will never know who, but we do know these individuals walked away from over $2500 of the yellow.
