Went testing the southern end of AZAU 1 and noticed how shallow the topsoil was in the southern half of the claim. In alot of places the caliche layer was visible on the surface and the areas I tested were only 5"-7" deep. I feel this would be a great area to use a VLF detector to its full potential. We found flakes but I'm really wanting to see what I find with a detector.

No luck detecting--lots of trash. Had some water and found some fines and one nice picker panning. Should have brought portable slice, but did not think to bring it.

This claim is easy to access and some of the washes get worked pretty hard.
I was able to get my detector over a very rough pretty 1 gram nugget.
I went back 3-4 times to work on finding another but seems it was a loaner.
Hot and dry in the summer so bring and drink plenty of water.

spent 4 hours out testing wash, sides and up to first benches, most of the the bottom of washes worked hard, ran 6 buckets in my dry washer and had 4 course flakes and about 30 fines, went back a second time ran 9 buckets from my 2 best areas only got 5 course flakes and about 40 fines, yes found gold but hard to say it's worth while, now you may do good if you got lucky and worked a side hill with exposed bed rock and really dug it down. but that's prospecting. good luck

This claim is still giving up a little gold! Got 8 fines and a picker today from 1 and half buckets using a recirculator. Worked the bank, not down in the bottom of the wash.
Looks like there's recently been lots of dry washer activity in the area.
Happy hunting!
