Hi Marksman. If it is not too stupid a question, how did you get the gold overlays onto google earth? Cheers, Len

Good to see you back. If you have anything in Vic going on, I would be interested. Cheers Len :Y:

I was walking in the creek last week. There were a number of cup sized rock pools, but no sign of any flow, nor even way up in Browns Gully. BYO water. Cheers Len :o

I have just read the report from the bankruptcy administrators. My name, and the amount that Brad filched from me were listed, as well as the comment that the bankruptcy estate was unlikely to find sufficient to pay the administrators, never mind unsecured creditors (me & you). I suspect that...

Having read the posts regarding Brad, I can only lament that I didn't look before falling into his clutches. The store was in a convenient location on my journey to visit relatives in Bendigo so I called in a few times to stock up. Brad was quite pleasant to deal with as long as he didn't have...

Can't wat for the results bulletin. Good luck guys. :cool:

Damn = I wish I weren't working. Good hunting!

Thanks for the ltes shipment Tom. It arrived tody and will kep me occupied over the fathers day weekend. Time to do battle with the black sand. :)

Hi, Tom. I finally got a few minutes to crack open one of the bags you sent. A nasty surprise inside! The creeks I have been digging here in the GT do not have any of that NASTY black sand in them, or at worst, only a small trace, the gold is much coarser, so is relatively easy to pick out...

the lighter on the right looks very much like WW2 army issue. Dad had one. :o

For the best advice on cleaning up the Gold Hog mats, just have a look at some of their many videos. The easiest way is to roll them inside out - pattern to the outside, then dip into a bucket of water. Everything just falls off. cheers

Aftenoon guys. Had a bit of a hit out at/near waterwheel a few months ago. Nothing exciting there. Even in midwinter this area is vary dry. No yellow, but lots of historical interest. About 5km's NE of there are some quite deep, narrow trenches - up to 30m deep. 10m wide & 1k long. 4wd track to...

What sort of moronic goverment/public servent enacts a law that is impossible to enforce. They are only inceasing the contempt in which they are already held. Monty who? :8

Thanks Wal & Rasta. I am about to take your drawings down to my local welder to see what his quote will be. I suspect a part of the price will be to take him on a few expeditions as he is a former fossicker himself.
