Rob & Rob's Detector Sales (www.nuggethunting.com) metal detecting old drywasher tailing piles with a Minelab GPX-4500 metal detector. These piles were loaded with small gold nuggets up to 1/4 ounce in size.

Hello Brad, The video don't show the tailing piles very well, since they are very old ones and almost flat. I will see if I can get some better videos up soon on tailing piles. What you will see is a area with all the rocks the same size in a small area. This is where the header pile was, or where the screen was set up to classify larger rocks off.

How do I know if I'm looking at screen pile? Is it a bunch of small pieces quartz all over the ground? I see in your video there's a bunch of white quartz all over the ground. Thanks for the info!!!
