[QUOTE="MegsyB007, post: 517985, member: 13534"] Hi Fergo and welcome to PA. I'm assuming you mean Major Creek in Graytown Victoria, that's spelt with an 'A' in Graytown, not some other town in Australia actually called Greytown. Major Creek is not on the exempt list, so it's OK to sluice there. As long as you're on private property, it's fine. There is prospecting allowed in certain areas at the Heathcote-Graytown National Park. Check this map for areas. [url]https://parkweb.vic.gov.au/__data/assets/pdf_file/0009/636660/Heathcote-Graytown-prospecting-map.pdf[/url] Stay out of the Puckapunyal Military Area or you could get your ass shot. And this is the list of rivers and creeks where you can't prospect/fossick, for future reference. [url]https://earthresources.vic.gov.au/licensing-approvals/recreational-fossicking/where-you-can-prospect-and-fossick/rivers-and-streams-where-you-cant-fossick[/url] You still need a Miner's Right to prospect on private property too. Go to the earth resources website to buy one online. Good luck. :) Cheers, Megsy PS: Please don't yell at us, which you do when using ALL CAPITALS.... [/QUOTE]
