I sampled this spot the morning of July 4th and took 3/4 of a 5 gallon of material classified at 1/4 inch home to run thru the Barbie Sluice. Some pretty nice color showed up !The morning of the 6th and 7th went back and followed the bed rock bowl I was in down stream and took about 25 gallons at 1/4 inch home both days and ran that material.
I kept the buckets in order that they were dug and found less and les gold towards my last bucket. the over burden was thinner on that end of my dig as the bed rock rose.
So I Guess When You Stop Finding Gold STOP DIGGIN !!!

Hello Howard: Looks to me like the boulder is working like a riffle in a sluice. The closer you are to it, the more concentrated the gold is- as you move away, the less gold is deposited.
Never stop digging. Remember today is the day I find that 1 ouncer! OOHRAH! Dickb
