Thanks Peter, we have taken early retirement and moved to Kambalda. This was our first prospecting trip in WA as retired folk !
Hence, no more working for the man !

I worked/lived in Kambalda in 1970/71, she was a wild place back then.

Well done Rick...on the retirement I mean. It's the best thing we ever did. That's a fantastic prospecting season for anybody but being retired means you can go and do it again and again. The final tally is not always the same but it's the journey that's important.

Good on ya rick,you sure hit the ground running.......
