Some More Ganes Photos

Here are a few more shots of the Ganes Creek, AK trip that we took a couple weeks ago.

Photo below is a few gold nuggets that Jim from WA found while on the trip with me.

One of the vehicles that was flown in. They need rigs that can take a beating since the terrain can get tough. What's better than a Hummer? Notice the rock tailing have been leveled. This site is very close (couple hundred yards) to where the 33.8 oz nugget was found a couple weeks ago.

Below is some gold that Susan found this year. I am so proud of this girl because last year it was not her time, but she never gave up and this year she did much better. The quartz and gold specimen is quite a piece. She had guts to come back again and try. Hopefully she'll do better next year?

Below is a pile of gravels that was dozed and leveled for detecting purposes. After it gets detected, then they doze it and remove more soil to make a virgin layer.

Last is a photo. Don from AZ and his gold. He likes detecting the benches and it paid off with many clinkers and a few nicer size nuggets. Don also found a nice gold and quartz nugget off 1.5 oz on the runway.
