Welcome aboard Craig and congratulations, I haven't seen fresh finds like those for a good few years. That's not a DeLorean in the background is it?

Giday Craig……..a bit of colour???? I’m colourblind!
You’re either the hardest working person in the fields or or the luckiest. I guess either is damned excellent. That’s pretty much my most extreme dream. Good on you and I do hope it just keeps on keeping on.
By the bye, what’s your weapon?
The new 6000?

my wife and I are professional prospecters full time we just work very methodically and get what everyone else has missed on the fringes or down deep... here's one nice 40 grammar after being tumbled thanks to John Cufos at Leonora pharmacyForgot to attach
Mostly I swing a 7000 sometimes swing the wife's 6000 . The 7000 after much testing is still a more stable workhorse on difficult ground and punches slightly deeper on big stuff .... found a 1kg piece last season 1m deep the seven just got it 6000 missed it !!! So everyone running round with 6000 gain turned up to a million are missing out on the good stuff!!!

A kilo piece would make you do a little dance. Well done.
I am thinking of a new business - checking GPS co-ordinates to help prospectors keep track of their finds. (Before I fiind myself at the bottom of a mine shaft - I was trying to be funny
Um a dance , a roll around on the ground and yelling a lot of expletives
I take it that Richard West is your brother lol.
Welcome to PA to both of you. Good to have such great experience on board.

Nice finds Craig, are you running the 19inch, I Mets a bloke who has leases in Cue years ago that only chased the big ones running the 19 in deep because of the qrc on his leases. He also mentioned he doesn’t use a harness or bungy but rigged he’s gpZ like a whipper snipper bike handle setup.
No mate, I use the nugget finder z search ,nothing special just good ears and solid technique and detector set up nice and quiet...

Looks like I’ll have to put a bit more faith into the nfs, I probably rely to much on the faithful 14.
Great finds Craig, Just goes to show that getting to know the country, your machines and applying yourselves to the task pays off, you have got my gold itch fired up big time.
