Goldwright, if you stay at the Mount Mulligan Resort can you detect on the station at all?

With Permission yes but at $1000 a night for cheapest room you will have access to limited ground within close proximity to the lodge.
Interestingly enough Mt Mulligan itself is on Kondoparinga. Guess who will probably end up with that.
 
Ive had my detector for a year and only been to my in-laws place practicing on test nuggets, cause there no places around Mareeba to go, would like to try my luck on glen russell station if allowed just cant find any contact details for them can anyone help me out or point me in the right direction for contacting them cheers

The old pub site at Thonghborough is lived in by the Fulconers and have so for 50 odd years and Kingsborough is owned and lived in by Ike who has lived there for the best part of 30 years, that is the only parcels of land that are not owned by Chris Morris but you would need permission from those owners as they are freehold and Mt Mulligan is 99 year lease. The only Gov owned sites are the Cemeteries and monuments and if you prospect them well each to their own. All number plates and vehicles that enter Mulligan are now being photographed apon entry and if caught details will be passed onto police.

I'm sorry but that's not quite right. Joe McHugh and Rockwall are correct, the Kingsborough and Thornborough areas (roughly 1sq Mile) are public town reserves apart from the small blocks privately owned by Fulconer at Thornborough, and by Ike, MYSELF and a couple of others at Kingsborough. Apart from our very small land holdings, the rest of the town reserves are public land which you can detect on without permission from anyone. This includes Pig Hill behind Thornborough.

Although Joe McHugh, honestly mate there is bugger all to zero gold on the reserves, so don't waste your time.
 
Gday guys I was out there couple of days ago. I was pulled up by mines am they thanked us for doing the right thing. Old mate in the mount mulligan land cruiser even stopped an asked how we went! Nothing but trash!

The townships are 1sq mile, or there abouts its owned by Mareeba council so go your hardest!
Pig hill has a pending lease on it at the moment.
Keep a eye on it, dont want to access it if it changes.

Im not sure where steveG has been looking but you may find a few small bits if you put in the hard yards.... be prepared for trash never seen anything like it!

Good luck

Once you cross the grid going to Thornborough you are on Mulligan Station and that grid is at least 10kms before you get anywhere near Thornborough. Its all Mulligan Station until you go into Kondo, Hurrican or Glen Russel your boundary information is wrong Im afraid. Chris Morris owns the entire property and there are no leases operating or pending so you are trespassing and we will escort you from the property. There are nearly 1500 head of cattle on the station and an operating resort.

Thanks for your info that's very interesting to hear that. I'm getting my data directly off the QLD GOV Derm website which clearly shows property boundaries Ie: Kingsborough & Thornsborough both with 1 square mile of land allocated for each township along with GOV owned/leased section of land for what purpose I don't know.... including a small parcels of land just before you get to Thornsborough leased under different purposes. That said I will call Derm to get this clarified to who has ownership & I definitely won't be going into an area I can't go, cheers :Y:
