[QUOTE="Nackz, post: 503891, member: 15749"] Hi all, So being new to recreational prospecting I (and I'm sure from what I can see others too) have been very confused about which areas are allowed in Victoria. Clearly you need a miner's right (which I have) and there are some very clear lists describing areas of State/National Parks where prospecting is permitted and a clear list of waterways which are prohibited. Has anyone worked out about other parks or areas - particularly those listed as crown land reserve? I can only find contradictory information. I have contacted Parks Victoria and the part of DEDJTR covering resource strategy and industry development, Minerals Development. I have had responses from (both quite prompt, professional and polite). Parks Victoria have said they only know the regs for the parks they manage (which are the lists of state/national park areas) and DEDJTR spent time looking into to it but couldnt work out anything further. I have just contacted DELWP to see what they say. Has anyone had much luck getting clear information regarding the rules and regs for non-state/national parks that are listed as crown land reserve? I cant get my head around it with seemingly contradictory legislation which can be read a number of different ways - just trying to do the right thing here! [/QUOTE]
