Black sand deposits 5896 1
Started by aphaney@att.net
I've dredged sand and pea gravel for road construction and have ran into black sand 'rivers' a few times over the years. The 'rivers' have always been between 5-10 ft from the surface after removing the overburden. I've worked 9 to15' dredges and left 5 to 10ft sheer face walls where Black Sand deposits can be viewed vertically. We always pumped the material because we could not determine how far the 'Black Sand...

filling in holes 9200 7
Started by MICHAEL BUCKMAN
I have been a GPAA member for a year now and just extended my membership for 2 more years. I have only been to a couple of claims so far. One I found 4 grams on and a couple nice pickers. The other I managed around 10 different test pans all with zero gold so I left early. Anyway, I cant seem to wrap my mind around the idea of filling in holes. If all holes are filled back up, then how is anyone to know what has or hasn't been dug already Maybe I am not very politically correct on environmental...
