Hahaha yeah here are some of the ones i mentioned, I thought i'd mention where I got them just in case :P And 7.62marksman if you could let me know that'd be great. Right now i'm posting them up on gumtree for prices I think are fair but If they don't sell I can go to a place that will buy.

I'm near Liverpool in Sydney

Hi all I didn't know if there was an existing thread for this but I wanted to ask how I should go about selling jewellery for the best price. I have some jewellery that was given to me by my girlfriends mother to sell so I can raise funds to buy a metal detector but I'm not sure how to go about...

Hey Guys I've just come across a show called Aussie Gold hunters. There's about 8 or 9 episodes but it's worth a watch and gets you really into the mood to go detecting or prospecting. Has anybody else watched come across it before? It features 3 different groups of people in WA.

Yeah I think i read somewhere that each strip has something like 0.0009 grams of gold on it so you'd need a massive amount for a decent sized nugget. And I dont think it's being over the top, I agree with you 100%, refining the gold yourself can be a dangerous task so lots of research must be...

Yeah I think I might do it myself just for fun but maybe after a bit more time. I reckon I'll wait until I fill the jar and i'll decide then. Every semester a bunch get used so I'll just keep stockpiling over time. If I end up refining them myself I'll post the results on here!

Hi everyone I just wanted to ask if anyone has ever refined their own gold from blood glucose strips. I work in a sport science lab as a lab technician and I came across some expired glucose strips which would've gotten chucked out by the previous tech. I've peeled them down and removed most of...

Oh that's awesome, I'm in Prestons so not too far from Liverpool.

Yeah there's a lot of great posts here that I've been reading through. Thanks guys. I'm Looking forward to getting into it!!

Hi all, My name is Diego. I'm from Sydney and I've been looking at getting into metal detecting as a constructive hobby for the weekends. It's great to find a forum where I can post my thoughts and find a great deal of information on the hobby. I currently don't have a detector but I have been...
