G'day ,my name is Craig . I'm a 50 year sparky. Just found this forum today . Have been into fossicking for about 8 years or more now, and love it. Got into it when my young bloke , now 16, showed a big interest from as soon as he could walk. Always searching for what lay on the ground . Have travelled from NSW to the Golden Triangle, to the Central Queensland Gem fields, just looking for what we can find in the different locations . Mainly spend time in the New England area chasing gems. We have a Garrett Gold Stinger detector, and are keen on getting into the gold more actively.
