[QUOTE="Bigred3, post: 627745, member: 22196"] Im on a property not far from Bodangora, limestone is the dominant bedrock. I notice no gold mines on minview are in the limestone section but I went for a look today instead of the river. Found a lot of big weathered grey rocks that have wide mineralised veins and Im wondering if theyd be worth crushing and panning. The big grey rocks on the surface only occur in a 50m belt through the property. Near these theres a very small patch of what Im assuming is ironstone, but not 100% sure. They are magnetic but a few have a really shiny black layers on them. The patch also has occasional water warn quartz pebbles around, is there any a chance of finding gold among it all?
