[QUOTE="Vegemite, post: 679463, member: 25296"] Cheers for all your tips legends!! Ended up only finding a good spot on the last day (always the bloody way isn't it), was a beautiful place and am keen to get down again asap, You were right about the hard to find a sizeable stone, only a couple that got caught in the 5mm sieve, one being a very bad quality sapphire but don't care about the quality just fkn stoked to have it in the collection!! All up got about 3/4 of a gram of gold, including a few real nice pickers and 4 very tiny sapphires (not to mention a billion zircon and cassiterite and maybe garnets? Not sure but way more red than zircon) Will get some pictures of it when I clean it up tomorrow or the next day, but won't be of everything ive found, as I've made up a little paydirt for a mate that couldn't make it and hasn't been panning in a long time due to knee operations and life getting in the way that has a couple of pickers, a sapphire and a lot of the gemstones for him to have some fun with :) [/QUOTE]
