[QUOTE="MJB, post: 30492, member: 1222"] Hi everyone, After much campaigning I have managed to convince my brother and dad to get into prospecting. It has been a bit difficult since they are in Brisbane and I'm in SA but a couple weeks ago they went and bought a pan each and headed off to Gympie to try their luck. Well.....they must have gone to the most tourist beaten prospecting place around, deep creek I think they said and no surprise they found nothing. :mad: To try and convince them to keep trying I wonder if any one here may be able to point them in the right direction so they can find some colour and keep them interested. Anywhere around the SE would be good really. In an attempt to cure their gold fever I am sending up a couple little bags of my own "pay dirt" which I know has some specks in it and hopefully that should get them excited to stick with it. :D Thanks for any info guys, Cheers, Matt [/QUOTE]
