so im assuming they have broken into a cellar/tunnel as apart of the excavation? all of those bottles in the soil doesn't make much sense to me

https://highbanker.com.au/products/mini-sluice-pocket-sluice Has anyone had any experience with these?? im looking for something small i can throw in my backpack, and something thats simple to use and wont lose much gold.

the amount of times iv gone into these old areas looking for old bottles, especially torpedo bottles, and found nothing but smashed ones, and these idiots are just sticking them in the bin makes me jealous and angry at the same time. ill have to come up at some stage and get a look at the site...

bumdags im keen to try out bear creek at some stage. any chance you could fill me in on some information about it? happy to talk via PM

Geovic, while clunky and sometimes difficult to use, is a great reference.

hey mate, living in Bendigo i would assume anywhere you can find bed rock and water is worth panning. jump on google maps and look for water ways on public land, cross reference the names of these creeks and streams with the exempted rivers list and you should be good to go.

reviving an old thread here i guess but i would love to head up here and have a look around. plenty of little creeks and streams off the buckland that arnt on the exempted list. Chinese coins are on my bucket list aswell.

ill have a squiz mate. i think the creeks i was hearing of were about 10 minutes north-north west of warragul. so that would put it heading up towards neerim roughly.

thats the one mate. iv been reading about some colour found in the creeks around warragul and in some places giving up quite a bit. But, as you would know, finding that spot that people are talking about is next to impossible, thats if it even exists in the first place.

great pictures mate. i love seeing this stuff.

ill hopefully be starting to explore the warragul area shortly. South of the town towards seaview there was a rush, but i havnt been able to find a great deal of information yet.

welcome aboard mate.

Hey guys. Names Ben and im from Warneet in Victoria. I have been relic hunting for the last 5 or 6 years and have recently just got more into gold prospecting. I have been to a few of the usual spots up around Castlemaine with a little success in the pan, but have more interest in trying to get...

ill be starting some more looking into some of the accesible creeks and streams around the Berwick area shortly.
