Mate you have been given some incorrect advice when it comes to using a highbanker, you can use a pump to supply the highbanker as long as you dig the dirt by hand, you can use any type of mechanical device to process the pay dirt.
If you send me a PM with your email I can send you some info for your area, that goes for you to Rodstar.

Mate I am not too familiar with the area but there is Mt Whyatt, Mt Coolan, also some area's toward Mackay Mt Harkwood?
Do you use ITRM on the DME site? Gold & Ghost books are handy for info.
Let me know what stage you are at with research etc & what method of prospecting you do.
