[QUOTE="Teemore, post: 600913, member: 1375"] Can't say I've ever seen anything that relates to litre limits for Victoria, but have seen them mentioned when researching NSW prospecting. Think some of the gem people might be able to advise (not sure but think that was what the NSW stuff was in reference to, guess that would also apply tp their "pay dirt". Option is to classify it down ... 40 - 60 liters of water and a Creswell type classifier can reduce a shite load of shovels full to less than 5 laters .... or put it through a sieve, but that can leave gold attached to the dirt. Checked again, these are the NSW regulations (not Vic. thank god)..... [b][u]3. RESTRICTIONS ON MATERIAL TAKEN[/u][/b] The following limits apply on the amount of material that can be taken per person during any single 48-hour period: [i]> 10kilograms of mineral-bearing material (containing gold or gemstones) > 5kilograms of minerals (other than gold or gemstones) > 5nuggets of 10grams or greater of gold > 50grams of gold (except where found as nuggets of 10grams or greater) > 100grams of gemstones.
