I went bumming thru the Bush this morning and got 3 nuggies and ONLY 1 Buckshot.

Some of my recent finds. The largest and smallest fell victim to the GPZ. The flat piece on the right was got with the SDC. It was lodged in a big waterworn slab of quartz.

Looked big when it dropped out on the dirt but when I picked it up noticed how thin it was. Only 0.09g. The others were won with the 5000 and 14x9 Evo.

This one was a quick late afternoon hunt over some diggings, and as I hadn't given the Gold Racer much love lately grabbed that with small 7" elliptical. I ran it pretty hot and started digging some bits of scrap brass and tiny shot, right amonst others dig holes. Got a faint whisper in the threshold. Scraped off the leaf litter and re-checked and it sharpened up but still faint. Engaged boost and I got a Zip Zip.

Scraped down and signal was coming from a little clump of clay. I crumbled it up in my scoop and saw a little glitter of colour. Tiny and flat and slightly prickly - it doesn't budge my scales.

Well done Nenad.
I'm in Wedderburn and got this little .61g yesterday.
I was around the campfire and a guy showed me a 1.75oz nugget he found yesterday, he's taking me to his spot today :D
I'm using the 5000 with standard 11" commander mono.

Cheers,
Paul

Yes it is good of him, I had a secret weapon, I went to the campfire armed with 1.5litres of port ;) went back to the caravan with a near empty bottle. We are at his spot now, there's plenty of trash tho
