That’s amazing you have found gold with a detector! I am 0 for 6 in full days of detecting on the gold grounds in Arizona! I usually search near Oatman, AZ. Where are you searching?

I've never searched Oatman, I've done most of mine outside of Yuma. I've had luck in the Gila Mountains washes near areas of bedrock. I've found a lot of nuggets up to about a gram there. A lot of guys will take out dry washers and dig out sand and rocks all day and have done well, too much work in my opinion. The area I've done best I've been sworn to secrecy by the two guys who brought me there, but it has a lot of smaller nuggets.
I hear some guys still have a luck around Rich Hill, even though the potato patch is pretty much played out. There are still a lot of smaller nuggets, the big potato sized ones are all long gone!
Very cool! 😃
What kind of detector have you been using?
