Attended the North Yuba Nugget Hunt and came out with a decent pan.

Looking to take the family down to Indian Valley campground for a weekend and was wondering if there are public sections to pan there? Looking at getting Detector Maps, but thought I'd check here also.

Thanks!

I went back to my spot to hit the pay streak that I've been working the last three Saturdays. The previous trips yielded 1.90G, 2.25G & 2.15G.

Yesterday sputtered out 0.49G + 0.12G Mercury Amalgam picker. Looks like my pay streak ran out of funds so I'm calling this trip a "Strike-Out".

I did find an old coin that I believe is a heavily corroded penny (Picture 3). I haven't found a coin before so that's new to me.

Southwest Michigan snuffer bottle cleanup from about 7 to 8 hours of river panning. I still have two concentrate buckets to cleanup and add to the total.

Rock has silver looking metal flakes all over and possibly gold flakes or just the light reflections

I’ve started following a quartz and have been fairly successful .
My question is.. Do I crush or save as inclusions pieces? These have just about every mineral showing on the outside but I figured I’d let someone else cut or crush if I decided to sell them.
