Re: The Trail of Jacob Waltz’s Gold Ore

Ozarker, The thread is drifting away from the original post by Novice, and the "issues" concerning the ore analysis, were posted ONLY to address specific comments made concerning the Brownie Holmes affadavit and what Dr. Glover wrote on page 275 of his book, Golden Dream , about two other ...

Re: The Trail of Jacob Waltz’s Gold Ore

Novice, No, the 7 pound sample was not ore retained by the Holmes family. It was a 7 pound sample of ore that was analized and compared to the ore that came from beneath Waltz's deathbed, taken by Dick Holmes, sold to the Goldman brothers, who kept some of that ore themselves and sold pieces of it t...

Re: The Trail of Jacob Waltz’s Gold Ore

Jesse J. Feldman, If you read back through the post containing the report, you will see it is not represented as any specific mine, or claim to be the Lost Dutchman mine or making any other claim of locations said to be connected with the Lost Dutchman mine. It was an analysis done over 40 years ago...

Re: The Trail of Jacob Waltz’s Gold Ore

Oroblanco, You are assuming the report is an assay instead of an analysis. In a previous post it was stated the report is an analysis. The underground reserves and overall richness of the ore was not the focus of the analysis. You are assuming a blacked out word is to prevent someone else from findi...

Re: The Trail of Jacob Waltz’s Gold Ore

Joe R. Page 1 of the analysis dealt with identifying and certifying the precise genetic makeup of the ore sample. Pages 2 and 3 deal with that ore sample analysis being identified for it's exact type of deposit, and compared to another known ore sample, and the findings of those two ores being compa...

Re: The Trail of Jacob Waltz’s Gold Ore

Joe, What Dr. Glover did in his research and testing is nothing short of remarkable. Just the fact he was able to get 4-5 dutch hunters to get together and give up their ore for an independant analysis is amazing. I don't fault him a bit for his work or how he obtained the results he was able to cer...

Re: The Trail of Jacob Waltz’s Gold Ore

Roger, Novice, The lid of the matchbox does not have a hinge, it slips on and off and Roger is correct about the faint line showing where the lid and body of the matchbox seperate. The ore used for the matchbox is from one single deposit. The dark areas Roger noted are extremely small pyramid shaped...

Re: The Trail of Jacob Waltz’s Gold Ore

Joe R,

Thanks for the welcome.

Dutchman ore matchbox, reverse side.
This photo, plus the photo of the Dutchman ore matchbox I posted earlier, gives you a look at both sides of the matchbox. Not the best photos but can pick out the rose quartz matrix and native silver.

Re: The Trail of Jacob Waltz’s Gold Ore

Quote: "If we assume the affidavit is a true statement of facts, what does that tell us? The best thing to do, is read the affidavit in Helen Corbin's book, and then read what Dr. Glover has to say on pages, 274 & 275 of "......Part 1: The Golden Dream". Something is amiss." ...
