[QUOTE="geojade, post: 314518, member: 6894"] Hi I'm fairly new to this and inexperienced in fossicking however I've been reading up on pegmatites and minerals within granite deposits. I live on a property with granite outcropping and granite boulders and I would love to look around but really have no idea what to do in terms of looking for a good dig spot, where, and how to dig/fossick. I'm in NE Victoria around the Beechworth/Mt Pilot area which I believe has had some good deposits although obviously it is dependant on lots of factors. It would be great to at least start looking, and potentially find stuff on my own property so any advice will be welcome. In addition, if I wish to fossick on public land etc, what permitting is required? Appreciate your advice for a newbie! [/QUOTE]
