About me

[Nicko98]

Hey everyone.
My name's Nick, i'm 18 years old and I live in the blue mountains NSW, about an hour and a half west of sydney. I recently discovered fossicking, and now pursue it as one of my hobbies. I Have always had a fascination with rocks and minerals - i've been amassing a collection since i was about 8! Most of my fossicking trips involve me driving out to black springs and surrounds with a pair of sieves (1/4 inch and 1/8 inch), a shovel and a mattock looking for gems. I recently finished my schooling and have been taking every opportunity i can find to get out looking for shinies. I'm hoping to meet people who i could learn from and potentially have some trips with on the forum. Thanks for your time
