[QUOTE="AlluvialRic, post: 53472, member: 459"] Seen heaps of these very wide quartz veins heading out to sea. Generally anywhere there was volcanic activity There is a ripper on the southern headland of Loves Bay just south of Kiama where the coastal walk track starts. Got heaps of quartz rocks and big pebble stones from there for my Nan's garden when we were kids. It is very interesting geology around this headland as there is exposed basalt flat bedrock topped with various layers of sedimentary deposits which contan many shell fossils and this massive quartz vein intrusion which runs from well inland and continues well out to sea I would expext. All the small beaches including Loves beach and southward until Gerroa are pebble stone beaches mainly made up of well washed and rounded basalt rocks of all sizes. There are a number of these quartz intrusions along this stretch of coastline. We have always called loves beach pebbly beach since we first went there in the 60's. **I should add, there is no Gold anywhere along this area 8.( [/QUOTE]
