    Mountain goat trommel / Spiral wheel questions.

    Gday Russel, Im also in NE vic, predominately prospect Reedy Creek + Surrounds so i am familiar with flour gold. I currently use a Blue Bowl and have done so for a couple of years now. I purchased a set of 30 / 50 / 100 mesh classifiers to use with my BB and i am happy with the recovery rate...

    Took the Rookie Miner out for his first glimpse of the Eldorado Gold Dredge. Absolutely amazing piece of engineering for its time!

    Snuck out to Reedy Creek for a couple of hours to check the water levels and put some gravels down the river sluice.

    Lucky enough to get invited out to detect a Chinese camp from the gold rush here in Northeast Victoria. An amazing day out with some amazing finds!

    Gday mate! apologies for the the late reply, I've only just seen your question. I use a 750gph SEAFLO bilge pump. I've never had any dramas with any of the plumbing other than an O ring seal wearing out. Cheers.

    Finally got around to processing a few paydirt bags from the Laanecoorie Gold Bash I had collected. Needless to say the results were incredible!!

    Something a little different but still very much gold related.

    It was a recon session. Ive identified a few spots which i can then slow down and grid properly at a later stage 👍

    Getting back into filming content with my Deus 2 that I won at Laanecoorie Gold Bash. Shot out to Reedy Creek between Beechworth and Eldorado to do some exploring and swing the wand. Enjoy!

    Took the banker out to Reedy Creek for a quick run. Nice chunky gold for a 2hr run ?
