Sup guys.
I hope i'm on the right board.
Been prospecting for gold for some time now.
I live on Aruba, a desert island, no running streams or rivers here so i'm digging into quartz veins and crushing it up at home.
But today i found this conglomerate of darkish coloured quartz.
Its got the iron staining. It shows signs of sulfides. (the area has shitloads of pyrite)
But my question is, should i crush this up see whats in it?
Or is it useless and this stuff contains 0 gold and should just keep it like it is.. It looks kinda neat.
I never seen it like this. Didnt find anything simular at the spot where i found it.

In this pic i pulled off a piece of quartz, which was easy to do a its pretty loose stuff. Underneat it was is some iron staining.

Do what you like, there ain't no gold anywhere within 100 miles of you, except sunken treasure chests.
Which would be an awesome find!

Au contraire my friend.
Although gold mining hasnt been really profitable on Aruba.
For quite some time the Arubans and the English mined for gold here untill the beginning of the 1900's. The ruins of the mines are still standing and people actually found some big ass nuggets there.
I did not have that luck yet, but im buying a metal detector to increase that chance.

Looks to my like anon has struck it rich.
Might i suggest you donate a part of your good fortune to the MGTOW retirement community fund?

You'll need a really good detector to find gold, the iron will really throw it off unless you have a good coil and unit

Break it open.
You've got no, you can get yes.
Wink, nudge.

Thats really interesting. I didnt think of that.
Most of the quartz veins i've found so far regularly have chunks of iron ore in them..
You think those chunks can throw off a regular metal detector?
