lead recovery

Our club has one field. The backstop is the side of a small mountain, all rock. Last year, just for fun, I dug a 5 gallon pail of the leaf stuff from the base of the rocks. Hard digging. I rinsed the pail of "stuff" and recovered about 16 lb. of shot. Totally unusable for reloading, so I melted it down to cast bullets.

This field has been used for over 50 years. There must be a LOT of lead out there. Any brillant ideas for recovering it? Like I said, it's all rock with leaf "stuff" at the base.
