    Old school Sluice but, I like it.

    www.sandycreekmining.com/home Was doing some research for sluices and cam across this. It's the same concept from Treasure of the Sierra Madre. Looking at it...it looks simple but, seems to work. There would be serious manpower to build it and run it though. I would say that you'd need to have...

    Job Networking: Looking for staff or looking for a job?

    I've been really impressed by the caliber of people on this form. How they handle themselves and how they treat each other on many levels. Everyone seems hard working, honest and helpful. These are many of the same traits one looks for in a employee. On a recent outing I was able to meet some...

    Gold Rush Colony at Mogo, NSW (Near Batemans Bay)

    We just got back on the weekend from 3 days at the Gold Rush Colony in Mogo, NSW. www.goldrushcolony.com.au I was impressed. It was really interesting if your into gold and its history. You wouldn't think there'd be a gold amusement park but, you'd be wrong. The camp has nice accommodation...

    DoubleBack caravans.

    What are everyone thoughts on the new Doubleback caravans from VW. I assume it won't be long before we see other brands do them. A great way to increase the size.

    Garrett AT Gold vs. MineLabs Eureka Gold

    (I always try to do a solid search of the forums and the net before I make a new thread but, I was surprised to find very little on this comparison.) I'm going to buy a detector soon and I'll buy a cheap $100 unit but, then I'd like to buy a top of the line VLF. Then buy a PI. Now I'm a newbie...
