Hi everyone, Happy New Year.

I got out for my first trip for the year to Castlemaine and managed to pick up 4 small pieces.
It was a fantastic day in the morning with very little wind and sun.

Off and running for 2021. U60nmPn
From the top they weighed 0.11 gram, 0.06 gram, 1.2 gram and 0.43 gram.

The 1.2 gram was one I almost walked away from. At first up I was expecting it to be rust given the signal dipped from one side of the coil to the other. The ground was quite hot. I had dug down about 5 inches and then had trouble locating the signal again. I dug one more bit out and the signal was out of the hole but still difficult to locate so I put the detector in “severe” to see if it disappeared due to being mineralization or if the signal was still evident. It was still there so I returned the detector to “difficult” and located the clay lump it was in. Breaking open the clay I was surprised to see the small lump of gold, but rather happy.

A good start to 2021.

May you all find gold in 2021.

Regards Axtyr.
