G'day Ian, I didn't notice you're post mate. Hope you had a good dig down there. I've never found any cutters at GG.

Alex and myself will be heading back to BB early in January most likely.

I went to Porter retreat yesterday :lol:
 
Do you have any pics of the cutters? I've only been to GG once and the largest thing I got was a tiger leach stuck to me :8

How did you go out there malau?

Find some sapphire and a bit of gold, but less than the first time. However got some large blood red zircon/gemstone (I cant tell if they are different or some thing) which in I cant remember 1/4" or 1/8" sieve.

Apart from that, many tiny zircon (light orange/brown color) and lots of flies.

Thinking try some new area perhaps can be as early as next week

I went out there at the beginning of the year and found about 10 sapphires and 15 zircon. I also came across a snake while packing up which wasn't the best lol.

In GG or Oberion?
 
Anyone heading out Grabben soon?? wouldn't mind tagging along and learning a few things. I have one pan and got myself a detector recently but wanting to get into panning and finding some sapphires and the gold stuff, just not sure if I am doing it right or looking in the right areas. I know I need a bit more gear but really just want to learn some tricks, I am hoping to buy some sieves soon as well. I am from Yass and free most weekends I also want to try out Wee Jasper if anyone ever heads out that way.

Cheers
