[QUOTE="Lefty, post: 75847, member: 2976"] Not allowed to peg small miners claims in NSW? Only commercial machinery leases? That does sound like a bummer! But as long as there are lots of sapphires where you dig, that sounds good to me :) I love sapphires! And zircons - and just gemstones in general. The bummer for me is that living in Gladstone, the gemstone fossicking opportunities are all but non-existent in my local area (my claim is 450km away). There is an amethyst diggings at Lowmead, about an hour away - but it's pretty well dug out. Two hours drive to the north you can find chalcedony, petrified wood and thundereggs. But nothing really close handy. There is gold in the local area but I think most of the alluvial stuff is gone, a couple of commercial miners are mining reef gold. [/QUOTE]
