Very cool.

Is what's in the bottle a day's worth and what are the red stones?

Must be a point of two on that beach....

What are the gem stones ? I’ve seen them with AU before...

Living the dream . I posted this before but after the last big flood waters a few years ago they showed retired folks hitting the hills . People going up and looking for gold .
one man had 30 k worth . Our local newscaster from Hawaii flew over and got about $30 first pan .

Happy for you I could do that for hours .
rubies to ?

Those are garnets found in this area. Yeah, about 3 hours worth of gold. Going back after this C-19 stuff is lifted.

I don't know tomf, I have only seen a lot of river worn boulders and stones with no viable chipping material here. Mainly granite and quartz with some feldspar here and there.

WTG my friend. Gold is always fun to find.
And so are garnets

I also do a lot of metal detecting in the Arizona washes. Going back there soon as well. Good finds there.
