read up on the sam christian placer mine a bit sometime, they traced the gold back to seven 3" wide quartz finger veins in the felsic uwharrie rhyolite. This mine had a history of producing large nuggets of native gold ranging from 1dwt to 1000dwt. Maaaany 1-3oz nuggets when looking in the mine's record book. These veins (and other historic gold producing veins nearby) all trend NW-SE.
