[QUOTE="MikeB05, post: 373200, member: 7270"] Jimmy, you have only read part of the Act for Qld. Read the bit that defines "[u]fossicking materials[/u]" as 'gold or gemstones or whatever you are after'. Once you see the definition of "fossicking material" then 'fossicking' is the "search for fossicking materials (eg gold) in a systematic or unsystematic way". In other words you are still fossicking until you get 'gold'. Fossicking is not over just because there is a pile of dirt that needs to be processed. In another part of the Act says you cant use power operated equipment (eg pumps) to 'fossick'. So sorry mate...'fossicking' does not end at "collection".....fossicking ends when you have got [u]fossicking material[/u] (gold, gems etc). But hey...satisfy your self and you are doing that by reading the Act and make sure you read all the 'definitions' [/QUOTE]
