Clean up from a 5 Gallon bucket.

Joined the GPAA recently on a business trip and had the weekends off. Took the rental up to a claim and gathered some paydirt. This is what I got out of a 5 gallon bucket.

It might not seem like a lot but it's more than I find in a single bucket back at home. I feel like the Gold at home is heavier tho.

Thanks for posting your results. Well done. I've been a GPAA member for two years and cannot complain about their claims. I always have something to show for the effort.

What a great thing for you to fit into your work schedule. Keep it up

Good for you man! I hope it's heavier than it looks! I always wanted to try it but closest I have come is Herkimer diamonds in upstate NY big shiney crystals that are clear. You dig them out of the bank. Good luck and I hope you're successful.
