    Nundle Fossicking Trip No. 2 Jan 2017

    I used to go up there a bit but found heaps of trees had fallen across a lot of the tracks off cemetery road. Is it still like this or have they been cleared?

    Victorian prospector unearths 145-ounce gold nugget

    GPX5000 question

    Hello all, I am looking for some help on a sensitivity issue. I bought a 8x6 nugget finder coil, hoping it would find small gold like an SDC on days when I couldn't be stuffed digging deep holes, or just going out for a couple of hours to get away. What I am finding is the 8x6 is no more...

    Greetings from the NSW Central Coast Comrades.

    I'm the same Peacekeeper, his legend precedes him! I kind of look forward to the day I cross paths with Nundle Guy, because I am very careful about the things I do to ensure I am not breaking the law...I will make him look a bit silly :)

    Thanks Wal and nucopia, I just bought one. I think it will compliment my pick quite nicely in these high trash areas.

    pin pointing

    does the magnet stay put when you are digging hard Wal?

    pin pointing

    I got my pin pointer with the GPX package, I find it useful when I'm using bigger coils and the target is deep, speeds up recovery definitely.

    Woodsreef Fossicking Reserve
