[QUOTE="user 4386, post: 615419, member: 4386"] Not fumaroles. Mud volcanoes are not impossible, but where is the mud, That is, they are more likely to be a cold groundwater feature if material is really being brought up from below - but a mud volcanoe will usually form clay pellets that dry and build up, that looks like rock, I once came across one growing on a track near Geraldton, so fast it had blocked the track. But it was entirely a wall of mud pellets, not rock fragments, with a central pool of mud rising and spilling over the wall as drying pellets. This looks more like just an erosional feature, that I would not expect to have any relationship to gold. But I'm guessing from a photo.... file:///C:/Users/GeneralLaptop/Desktop/Sort/MudVolcanoes.pdf [/QUOTE]
