[QUOTE="Wrasse42, post: 165880, member: 5489"] Thanks Silver and thanks Bundy Bear! The survey report I found on Diglum Ck had a detailed map to go with it but I had to search the Qld Dept of Mines site to find it. Took me over an hour after going through all the surveys but finally found it. I can't post photos yet as I need to post 10 times but it shoes the exact locations of where the garnet bearing rock is. I'm heading out there on Saturday so I'll let you know how I go. Apparently the granite is very decomposed and the garnets found were in abundant pockets so sounds like easy digging. They are androsite garnets but as to what colour I have no idea. As to Lowmead will definitely have to go for a poke around there soon as well. [/QUOTE]
