[QUOTE="oldtimerROB, post: 333956, member: 8947"] My previous post should be regarded very carefully for older members,and I do not advise anyone over 40 to try sinking holes.I got a slight heart attack at 66 after I was digging into a hard mullock heap,which resulted in a double bypass operation. I always wanted to dig a trench in the side of an old shallow hole where I detected a 2 oz. nugget and dig out the virgin soil to the next hole.The possibility to examine the soil and find a nugget is much higher in my view than detecting over the same ground from the surface.
