[QUOTE="ProspectorPete, post: 148065, member: 3820"] Hi there HL, I haven't been there yet but was very keen after reading Stephen Barnham's "Trentham-Blackwood gold prospecting guide" because he takes 2 old local blokes who mined along with their fathers around and locate, recall the history of the area. To cut a long story short it seems there is a lot of gold yet to be discovered in the area, a lot of mine heaps that were stock piled for processing but abandoned for various reasons and could be well worth detecting the heaps if able to locate them. Apparently a lot of the tracks will be shut soon for winter but I'm keen to get out there at some stage for a look around as it's only 1.5hrs from home and an easy day trip. If you haven't already got it then buy the book and it's well worth the $22, has maps of the areas. [/QUOTE]
