Drones? 53284 12
Started by tpleibel
So this is one of those brain farts you have when you are wide awake at 3 am. But with personal drones and little cameras coming way down in price. Has anyone used one to prospect I would think in steep terrain it would come in handy to follow veins of Quartz or prospect terrain before making a steep climb.

Started by voodoo
Going to get a chance to use my 12' Chris (from Crisson Gold Mine) Designed Water powered trommel. You can see them on www.aworldapart.com search water powered trommel
During bench testing at a pond near my house, I was able to recover coarse, flake and flour with ease. Re-panned my cons and found quite a bit of flypoop gold as well.
I cannot wait to actually run this creekside, sampling some promising areas.
I will post up result...

They wanted to know if I was interested in being on a team of treasure hunters that searched for ambergris.
