[QUOTE="Ballina1, post: 428525, member: 7146"] Welcome. Go to Oallen Ford and do as much research on the Upper Shoalhaven you can without being too nerdy. I have found gold from fine to small nuggets either side of the "Ford" (now also a new high-level bridge). Make &/or buy a range of tools to clean out crevices in slate or other bedrock, plus a chisel point crowbar to break open cracks and crevices. The shingle also holds gold, as does some of bench gravels to NE and NW of the crossing. Don't expect to make a fortune but you will find gold, plus observe what others do. Plenty of people go there to watch and practice panning. Get yourself a river sluice as well as this speeds up processing in rives and creeks with good water flow. Other spots I recommend would be Turon River, Hill End, Sunny Corner, Windeyer, Nundle. Good luck. [/QUOTE]
