Just down the hill from the Quartz vein that we found, it looks like at some point in time someone dug a very deep sample hole by hand. Its a kinda creepy looking hole I was planning on digging it up next year with the backhoe to find out what the digger was chasing. You don't dig a hole that big by hand if your not finding anything. It looks like one of those holes you would see in a scary movie, you know the cursed ones that everyone in the audience says don't go in there stupid, and they do anyway. Hopefully next season I will be able to report a mother load find in this spot, and not a Zombie.
Here you will find a story of a family of five people who are mining for Gold on Quartz creek in Alaska. We work hard, we play hard and these are our tales. Follow along, comment if you like. Ask questions, I am here to provide the reader with information about our. This is not the same Quartz Creek that they have on the Gold Rush Alaska show and I am in no way associated with them, other than I mine for gold.
