[QUOTE="Bundy Ben, post: 165873, member: 5203"] G'day Wrasse, Welcome aboard. Firstly, Lowmead has been worked over but still small patches to be found. The general area appears to have a Quartz crystals spreading over a bigger area but most is on private property... So if you kniw anyone down that way, hit them up for a look. The local emporium here in Bundy has just stocked up with about 5kg of assorted clear, opaque, smokey and a few amethyst crystals & were being sold as "locally found" when I asked him if they were from Lowmead way he said that they were & that they had come off a private property. Biggest were about 13 x 4 x 4cm, average quality but I know I would be bloody happy to find them. As for Dilgum creek... Unknown to me, but over the years of poking around (looking mostly for gold), I have heard rumours of garnets, the rare sapphire & zircons from Calliope to Mundubberra. I have only recently started looking for gems as well & will gladly pass on info if I find anything.. [/QUOTE]
