    'Australia Est 1788' T shirt

    You're only racist if you're white and you're only sexist if you're male. And a middle aged single white man is the most discriminated demographic in Australia.......... and now we are not even supposed to be proud of our country..... Time to go bush and off the grid.

    Loaming for Gold information and questions

    Yeah "Village" you might want to do a little more reasearch before you say what a person is or isnt doing. I'm personally going to go with Geologists and old mate's with perfectly made sample dry blowers than some fool walking 1000s of meters aimlessly around the scrub with a stupid Surf rod...

    Any Gold In SA

    No problem Spike's mate, I'll update this thread if I find anything interesting to pass on. The way the economy and unemployment rate are going it looks like prime time for a gold rush with gold prices like this. :D

    Any Gold In SA

    You might want to do a bit more research on what was actually found and how they found it in South Australia. Some of the gold fields that produced Nuggets ranging from 8 to 29 oz were only around 10 to 20 square kilometres on an ore body with the same surface geology that go for upto 360 square...

Then I would research what other types of minerals are formed with them after all of this I would then get the surface geological maps from...

    Puffer or Blower please help.

    Cheers rc. I am leaning more towards a bellow type for the noise and consumption factor. I already have a large panel on my trailer that powers everything. Now just have to find one at a reasonable price.

    Puffer or Blower please help.

    Hello all. In April I will be doing some fossicking in south Australia's northern bits. Maybe even looking at starting a claim.
