[QUOTE="GoldCheddar2005, post: 69697, member: 2663"] Nice stuff, yes I have to turn over every piece of stone, grain, because gold here is very mixed with pyrite. It's not unusual to have both in the same stone. As for nasties, I added scorpians to my list of friends. Theyre no match for my rock mallet. Crack!!! I have a beautiful Mackay cedar that I am fossicking around at the moment. I don't have whizz bang gadgetry, I have access to a Minelab SD2100. My site is directly under the old shaft on a friends property, and that is filled with water at the moment. However that water has to come out somewhere, and the root system to this old cedar is protruding 1 metre out of the ground, and runs for about 40 metres, slightly above the creek. And yes I am getting gold, but very hard earned. Including a fall or two into the creek. [/QUOTE]
