[QUOTE="Eric2017, post: 313668, member: 9216"] Went for a bit of an explore locally (Canberra). Checked out Cotter Cave entrance and the old Congwarra Lode Mine on Paddys River. It was a copper and iron mine with a small amount of gold coming from it. I noted that the steps up to a viewing platform across from the old scree field was cut out of solid quartz. I then walked up on to the scree field and diggings. You could see fresh diggings which is illegal, it's in a nature reserve now. I then went and had a pan at one of the few local spots where you can. Nothing to note. A couple miniscule specs of gold. [/QUOTE]
