[QUOTE="LONEWOLF, post: 416172, member: 6309"] Yep.. Every Mine or close to it... Im talking about the Area as a whole (Orara Goldfield)... Not a small location as Nana Glen.. This Football size one was very early in the Gold fields history....Have a read of George Ellis's First Book about the Farmer at XYZ who employed an Aboriginal farm hand to dig some Fence-posts... Unearthed a Nugget that was the size of a football... Took the Nugget to the Farmer and the Farmer Paid him for his work + some to keep quiet... True Story as I was good mates with an Aboriginal Fellow who that was his Great Grandfather... Nuggets will always Pop up in that area... Yes it is Very Rough Country and the Miners and Loggers had a very tough Life,,, If you know the area well you can still get to Some of those mines you mentioned with a bit of Legwork... Some tracks are now well overgrown tho... Tallawudjah Creek at Glenreagh was one of the Locations with smaller Nuggets... The Geology of the Area extends all the way through to Dalmorton and beyond and is Full of Nuggets just waiting to see Daylight...... Most are Very deep and require Mining to get to them... Some of the Mines and their output...
