[QUOTE="rotor, post: 203254, member: 5232"] I just spoke to Brisbane office that put me through to Rockhampton office that put me through to Emerald office - got the distinct feeling they were passing the buck ..... Finally spoke to an inspector/warden (who knows) in Emerald who's answer as to whether a hand operated "Dry Blower" could be used was "YES". If it had a mechanical device attached - electric or petrol driven then NO, it was then deemed mechanical. I asked him whether sluices were allowed and he said "I'll get back to you on that one" He wasn't too sure of a previous outcome concerning river sluices and will ring back this arvo. I also asked him about shakers - I'm not entirely sure what a shaker is - is it a "Gold Shaking" table? in which case if it is then he said they were OK if not motorised . I'll let you know the outcome :( ya never know! [/QUOTE]
