[QUOTE="jethro, post: 297670, member: 1297"] Plenty of gold came out of Rushworth / Whroo back in the day with the old VLF machines. I got my first 2 bits there with an XT17000. The were some great patches found further out in the forrest to the west of Whroo. Ive seen some big gold come out of that area but its hugewith a lot of blank ground in between . As for the geology Look for large Patches of Grass Trees as they seem to like poorer granite soil. They indicate a granitic dyke or intrusion. Detect quartzy runs & gravel patches & search downslope from these. There should be plenty of lil bits for a 2300 to find as well as lots of deep ground that could hold large gold. [/QUOTE]
