[QUOTE="Deepseeker, post: 536498, member: 13321"] I gave Whroo/Rushworth area a visit yesterday for the first time. I didn't find any gold, just the following items, all of which came from a gully in Whroo: [img]https://www.prospectingaustralia.com/forum/img/member-images/13321/1581214903_whroojunk.jpg[/img] I found the geology a bit weird, in that the two reefs that I happened upon both ran East/West. I also came across a small gully with the most Ironstone grains I have ever seen since starting out in the hobby. It looked like really deep particles of rust that had completely filled a gully to the exclusion of all other types of rocks and stones. I also found myself a rather nice Quartz sandwich, which looked so inviting I realized that it was time to take a lunchbreak as I was getting hungry. :) [img]https://www.prospectingaustralia.com/forum/img/member-images/13321/1581215214_quartzsandwich2.jpg[/img] [/QUOTE]
