[QUOTE="Redmanti, post: 80988, member: 368"] Yesterday I did a couple of test pans at a river ford and found some nice gold. It isn't shown as having any gold on the Minerals Dept Maps but there was a few lines mentioning gold in an old newspaper on Trove. Best of all its only 9 minutes drive from home. Just goes to show the value of looking up the National Library Trove database. What I think is that the ford must act as a natural catch for the river in general and the source just hasn't been found yet. [/QUOTE]
