[QUOTE="user 4386, post: 651568, member: 4386"] Yes, me too - I just assumed what I posted was meant to be part of one, because it appeared in an advertisement for one. Private versus public land is available on Geovic, but I can see that it might be useful to have all info on a single map for just a brief field trip (I spend up tp 6 weeks out at a time so can take time to prepare in advance). Each to their own. But I suspect the GSV maps would cover many areas less well known (and perhaps less done over) - and are free. Just one point - other maps are available at far better scale than 50K (eg Castlemaine, Maldon, Ballarat - Bendigo is not a sole example, just the one that I chose for comparison with what I assumed was the same area on a Signal map. I see numerous puddlers on almost every field, so I am not sure how helpful they would be - but I guess it is suck it and see, and those who detect regularly should know. I find the reef shafts useful as they define areas where gold is being released downslope into the soil, and all big nuggets occur fairly close to source. [/QUOTE]
