Got the fever

[Jasonr]

Hi guys Hows it going.
I have always been interested in prospecting Eva since I was a kid. My uncle use to own the property PARADISE up on the burnet river unfortunately it is now covered with water since they put Paradise dam in. Im from Ipswich I have done some prospecting up at warwick out at Thanes creek, its a b it like Deep Creek every man and his dog has been there. you might get a bit of colour but nothing to run to the bank with. lol. I now live on the sunshine coast and wonting to get out and do some prospecting. Can anybody give me some tips or pointers where to go best places to look. Im also looking for the overlay map used on google earth. been to the mins department web mag cant find it all they have now is QLD maps what eva they call it. The old map over lay was great. I lost it when I cleaned up my computer.lol

Cheers
Jason

Welcome mate . Not a lot of sites around the sunshine coast . Live near noosa myself and go f n q a couple of times a year for a couple of months
If you check with the ranges ( email ) there are some spots around Imbil you can go but the top soil is very deep making it hard to detect . Some of the creek beds around old mines produce a bit more color than deep creek

I worked that area years ago after contacting the local rangers and finding out where you ca n fossick . As I said befor the op soil is very deep in that area so your better of working the creeks and washouts

Be sure to email rangers to find where you can go
