Interesting. Is there potential for larger pieces. Is this float or are you mining hard rock?

Hi Deb, This was float that was buried about a foot deep. I think I got what little material was buried, so I've started prospecting for the source. There isn't any surface float to simplify matters so I have expanded my search to about a 1 1/2 mile radius in the surrounding mountains. I found this stuff at high elevation so it's very possible that it was dropped where I found it by a glacier which complicates my prospecting that much more. Anyway I'll keep on looking.( p.s.) by the way I did dig up some nice sized chunks.

what a great variety from one area; hope you do find the source but you could be right about the transport. Especially if you're finding it over such a large area. Good luck on the hunt Lloyd
