The one that was found over the hill from us, 38,000 years old. Wow. I haven't tested any of my step bisons. Wow. It's 400 bucks a pop, but I would bet that one's at least 20,000, 30,000 years old.

Burt Benrock, Burt gravel, you know, deep, deep, 50 feet down. And since we talked last, I think I kind of figured some things out. Yeah. All that material that has ended up where we're at came in, I think we talked about it, came in some kind of water event. Some flood. Yeah.

So there's a back channel that goes through that valley that's pretty decent in gold. I mean, pretty rich. And the miners used to drift mine that because they couldn't bucket line dredge it. And so it goes around where we're at and it keeps going downstream. So when we moved from where we were at down to, let's go find the back channel. And we set up over here where we started on the left limit.

We started going back up and we found some drift mines up there. And this bone here, I think it was from an old drift mine a couple hundred years ago, you know. that before the discoveries were even made. Some guys were out there digging around and had an old drift mine going.
