[QUOTE="Adrian ss, post: 591656, member: 14143"] We lived in Wangaratta for a couple of years and spent good time around Eldorado, mainly panning and sluicing.Also found some nice clear and smokey qtz crystals, topaz, and agates. Detected along and around the banks of Reedy creek and found some gold field relics of buttons , buckles and a few broaches, horse shoes, pick heads etc. The place is littered with rusty iron. The best panning results came from about two miles down from the falls. There was a lot of people camped along the creek back then and if I remember correctly there is no panning or sluicing allowed near the falls any more. ....I may be wrong. There is always something to be found and if you can get the SDC close to bedrockalong the creek then you might get lucky and find a picker, anywhere else and the rusty iron will drive you bonkers.
