Always take photos of you markout and file away incase of an objection :)

Ps it's impossible to insert a peg at ground level as it must enter below ground level to stay in place :)

Here's a tip!!!! I would argue in court that above peg is good ... however.... best way to avoid all this grey area bullshit Is to use rocks for your trenches as allowed by mining regs you may even pile the rocks around the base of peg to support and insure FIRM fixing of you pegs as per rego...

FYI the peg in the photo is not compliant with the mining act the trenches are not correct and can be objected to as per Forrest n Forrest case precedent 2019 high court decision the peg must be in the trench I have used this law myself in a case

My tip would be don't do it... Don't get me wrong it's averaging 44 ° here in leonora so I understand the battle . But there's more things that can go wrong than right and someone's health or when life ain't worth a bit of gold. My real tip is if your serious I get up at 4am and do my work very...
