I have a few pieces of quartz with visible gold from Coromandel but nothing that looks like yours. If you are onto areas with that sort of specimen gold you dont need to learn from others as you suggest in another post -you have cracked it!

Yes Chris, also a con man I think, sent him a small amount of cash over a month ago for some of his Quartz that he claims to be digging out of old mines in the Coromandel, am still waiting for the Quartz and he does not reply to any of my emails, a pity he can't make an honest living.

I thought at the time of his first postings that his gold specimens & "rich" ore supposedly from the Coromandal were a bit to good to be true. I have been in to many mines in the Coro & I never came across such"rich" ore like he seemed to find so easily. I know that the mining companies would never have left any such visible rich ore behind. Why the hell would they??? That was there living & bread & butter. JW :)

Am still waiting for the refund, I have my doubts but will be keeping a close eye on my bank account and will let you all know if it does happen. If he can't organise getting out a few kgs of rock in the post, how's he going to organise the Gold Convention that he has posted details about on Paydirt. ???
