That’s so cool! I had some friends that were diving for gold under some falls! They were going to the spot to make their dive! On the trail, one of the guys foot slipped on a mossy rock! The sunlight hit the the and it glinted gold! They dug it out and it was a huge piece of quarts and gold! Not sure of the weight, but an awesome find none the less!

@tompekarna Жыл бұрын
over the years, flooding due to rare heavy rain moves this clay like material and covers the nugget. Over millennia this is repeated and more and more overburden is added. Heat bakes into an almost brick like material. Nugget this size would not be moved very far by water, so it's source lode might well be 'upstream' from it's location. Upstream here would refer to the direction of flow of an archaic stream which carried it from the lode. So I think rather then it slowly submerging into the ground because of it's relative density, it was covered by alluvial mud. tom
