People tend to toss the aluminum cans in the fire along the beach so that explains the blobs....problem is gold rings tend to ring up the same as the ring pulls or the melted aluminum blobs....keep digging and the gold will show up eventually.

Port Eynon was the same. Black almost peat like beach where the sand had been ripped off, but loads and loads of molten aluminium.

its not all doom and gloom mate , based on current aluminium scrap prices and assuming a ring pull weighs 1 gram you made a whopping 2.08p profit and that doesn't include the molten blobs , your walking over a fortune in scrap there fella unfortunately you might be there a while  ::) ::) ;D :D :D :D
