[QUOTE="Ramjet, post: 50059, member: 214"] "On land or waters that are not subject to native title, fossicking is not restricted to hand held implements, but power-operated equipment cannot be used for the purpose of surface disturbance, excavation or processing." I take this to mean that you cannot use machinery, backhoe, dredge etc to remove soil and gravel from a creek. It must be dug by hand. Then you can use whatever means to process the material. Eg, a highbanker is only washing, processing you material, not digging it out of the ground. [/QUOTE]
