Within 5Ks of Creswick, 2 nuggets detected, both half the size of a Mans hand and both over 100 OZ,s. No further details as yet but maybe someone on the forum might know more.
 
I'm thinking this should read 100 grams, as this is one 100 oz nugget - clearly bigger than 2 women's full hands!

The volume of 100 grams of gold is only 1900 cubic centimetres - this is clearly more than that. 30 oz would be a bit under a kilogram (approx 900 gram). Not all that large. This is a 1400 gram nugget, say 45 ounce - easily fits in one hand

Trying to get photos so cant verify actual size of nuggets until I can get more info, personal friends are parents of finder so its genuine. Scales showed a 137 with both nuggets on the, scales couldnt see a decimal point but a couple of numbers followed the 137 maybe it was around 137 ozs or grams as some suggested. Ill try and get a shot but its still a good find.
