[QUOTE="Norvic, post: 281381, member: 4596"] Since the early 80`s I`ve been hearing gold fields are "duds", "finished" etc etc. But DAZ only to those who aren`t prepared as you obviously weren`t for Clermont. A friend from the USA came over last winter to Clermont for a brief two week visit, he pre-booked some time with the local Detector Shop Proprietor to show him the ropes and scored gold that made him a happy chap. To complain of "historic" mining sites being destroyed, that is so in every State, as it is also so in all States some areas are preserved, having enjoyed the Victorian State Forests myself, they are magic. Be assured as 30 plus years ago there is detectable gold still on fields that produced to the detector operator then, but to do so you must be prepared and capable. eg I live in a QLD shire that is bigger than Victoria, in that shire there is a number of preserved sites and I believe it is in other shires. Gold only comes to those who, as per the Scouts Golden Rule......Be Prepared....... tis the nature of the beast, otherwise it`d be worthless. [/QUOTE]
