Looks good bushpig pretty clean ground by the look of that nugget. The ground above looks to be hard packed with sand underneath, can you give us some description of the ground please.
 
Thanks all and sorry for the late reply. Been having issues with the internet and its always fun trying to sort out issues with my provider. :/

RM no sand but mainly a grey clay layer under the wash. I found a puddler about 100 metres away so it must of been producing well. Unfortunately someone had dug into the side of the puddler also which is a shame.

Haha Gypsy its in the post. You sound like a buyer that contacted me from overseas once.

Thats right Northeast a bit of karma for that person.

Cheers all :)
