i've been digging under the bottom of a not so big boulder, has yellow then grey clay under it and i been washing that in pan.

Straight up above where they were found is an old digging from long ago and looks to me the gold is still coming out of that area...

So Rob, if you got 40 bits out of that, would not there be more around near that puddle.??

Mind tho, I have no idea about gold prospecting...
