Hi All.

I'm keen on starting up a prospecting/fossicking club in Western Sydney. I'm based in Penrith.

I would like to find other people that are interested:-
- Prospecting/Fossicking either for gems or minerals either on day trips or weekend trips when it gets warmer.
- Metal Detecting on weekends (until daylight savings starts atleast) day or night.
- Any other activities - Coin Shooting, Treasure Hunting, Cache Hunting, etc.

Let me know if anyones keen.

Cheers. Andrew

Hey carson - introduce yourself in the "Introduce Yourself Forum" and you'll get more response from members https://www.prospectingaustralia.com.au … .php?id=18

You can also look for fellow prospectors in your area - just place a post in the general or prospecting areas of the forum.

Good luck

Prospectors Home Club which meets at Parramatta once a month is a very active club with monthly and even more frequent trips, mostly around Central West NSW but often to Tibooburra, WA And VIC. Great club. Although I lived further away I retain my membership. Google the club to contact them. If you cannot find a contact, message me for details.

Oberon, Oallen Ford, Sofala, Turondale, Hill End, Windeyer, Hargraves, Gulgong, Stuart Town, Nundle, Tibooburra are favourites. Live North Coast NSW. SDC2300 plus crevicing, river sluice, panning, etc.
