[Rockhounds] goldfield mine in neveda

[Steve & Marilyn]

Dont be afraid to use you silver pick (money) and buy some of the Royston 
from the Ottsons you will be glad you did.  They still sell a little to us 
have nots  I bought a couple of pounds of Royston and some fantastic green 
varicite.  Good luck digging take lots of water. Steve
