[QUOTE="grubstake, post: 669730, member: 4012"] That YouTube clip says the lease they're working is 120km north of Kalgoorlie near Loch's Hill. FYI, Coolgardie is 38km south-west of Kalgoorlie. Your post also mentions 1850's miners, but gold at Coolgardie and Kalgoorlie wasn't discovered until 40 years later, in the early 1890's. 'Reality' programs like this one are produced for public entertainment, but they are not documentaries. Those with actual Australian prospecting/mining experience are pretty skeptical about many of the finds and stories depicted in them. [/QUOTE]
