[QUOTE="mbasko, post: 556581, member: 4485"] Yeah around the back of Bald Hill is one area they can be pretty bad in places. Have read they suspect Bald Hill is an extinct volcano which would explain the basalt type rocks but haven't read anything that 100% confirms it. The old timers thought they'd find a diamond pipe in there but never did. Not a lot you can do there with the SDC but try the salt settings to try & dumb them down a bit. If you persevere through the hot rocks & rubbish there is some gold around there though. After awhile you get pretty good at ID'ing the rocks & kicking them out of the way but it's not an area I can spend too long at. The gold there seems to be associated with the problematic rocks not in them, if that makes sense. [/QUOTE]
