Needed, hunting sites in The Barossa Valley

[aadelaidean]

Hi people, I have been browsing this site for awhile now but I have only been out fossicking, hunting a couple of times. (Without success) I have found bottle tops and tent pegs etc lol, still waiting for my first coin or gold. I would appreciate any suggested sites to explore in the Barossa Valley SA like old buildings etc where no premit is required and that is not on private land. Thankyou in advance for any suggestions.. Also I thank this great forum and all the people here who share their knowledge and stories.......Cheers Debra

G'day Debra, The only 2 places you can legally go gold prospecting in SA are..........

Mount Crawford https://www.forestry.sa.gov.au/Portals/0/Publications/InfoLeaflets/Mt Crawford Fossicking.pdf

Jupiter Creek https://www.forestry.sa.gov.au/Portals/0/Publications/InfoLeaflets/KuitpoPinesAndVinesMap.pdf

If you would like to go for coins & relics I am president of Adelaide Treasure Hunters Club, we meet once a month and I usually organise 2 day hunts each month. These can be places like Recreation Grounds, Show grounds, Schools etc. Our first hunt for the year is tomorrow, Sunday Jan 25th. You're welcome to come along to see what we're all about if you like. My contact details are on the flyer below.

Paul.
