[QUOTE="Julian CS, post: 669327, member: 24690"] Hi all Im reasonably new to this whole prospecting game but I’ve hit a few of the well known spots but i want to start finding my own and i am struggling to find answers to some of the less clear laws in place in victoria. First off if a creek or river doesn’t appear on the list of ”no go” zones then is it legal to prospect there irrespective of what land its on? for example if a creek flows through a national park not mentioned on the list of allowed national parks for prospecting then its off limits? Secondly are you allowed to prospect on water frontage? Ive seen a lot of streams that have crown land around them but they are called “(name of stream) water frontage’’ on GeoVic, are you allowed to prospect in these areas/streams? Do you need permission from whoever (if anyone) has control or holds lease on these areas? any and all info much appreciated! [/QUOTE]
