Hi Grant. Just to clarify some facts, Tyrconnel Gold Mine http://www.tyrconnell.com.au is not part of Mount Mulligan Station, they are both separate entities. Mount Mulligan Station is however currently closed and the link posted earlier is no longer working. See this link for more...

Yes, we made sure we covered up the hole very well so no one can tell there is a digging. I learned that lesson many years ago after having a hole we were excavating and getting good gold got cleaned out by a professional American prospector who was roaming the same area. You just knew it was...

Hey Gold Diggers, I have an interesting developing story to share after our prospecting plans to go further west gold prospecting over Easter fell foul due to intermittent battery warning light problem (the signs of a possible failing alternator) in my 4WD turned everything our plans...

I was checking out a newly exposed quartz vein yesterday in an new housing estate because the land is still unoccupied. An area with high mineralisation and red iron oxide with my Eureka Gold and got a good strong deep signal at 6.4khz coming out of one spot. So looks like some hard rock mining...

True no doubt PI detectors do a much better job, however they are still picking up nuggets off the ground in many places around Australia and Australia is a very big place. So I don't buy it that the gold is running out. Weather erosion also reveals new deposits in areas that have been...

Oh boy, there is so much misinformation about the Eureka Gold out there it ain't funny. But I think Argyle has really has it hit the nail on the head from everything I have learned about these metal detectors. So well done Argyle on this very informative post! I am a fairly tech savvy person...

My experience with gold prospecting so far has always been in alluvial gold. So crevassing, panning and sluicing are still options for gold recovery we may still use if there is no detectable gold in an area known for it's gold occurrences. I think it is never wise to put all your eggs into...

But Greg, what was there before pulse induction metal detectors? VLF detectors like the Eureka Gold have found a lot of gold, but getting dialled in to the ground and keeping it that way is obviously the challenge. See they do find deep gold.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RO3BDMBqO4w So...

Thanks everyone, my prospecting partner Kristy and myself will catch up with the Cairns crew in April, so thanks Greg, I will definitely put that date in our diary. Anyway, a bit more about us. I'm a part-time IT coordinator for a local company who provides training and certification for the...

Thanks everyone for the welcome. Greg, we will have to catch up sometime at the Miner's Den for coffee and a chat. And can someone please tell me, I've just upgraded to premium membership, so how long does that take to go through? Thanks.

Hi everyone, first of all, thank you to our wonderful hosts who created this website. I'm a 53 year old outdoors girl who is new to this forum, and new to the world of metal detecting for gold. I just bought myself a Minelab Eureka Gold as an entry level unit to get started but plan on...
