[QUOTE="Wrasse42, post: 166013, member: 5489"] Thanks Lefty, I am heading to Diglum Creek tomorrow to try my luck. It's 56 km from Gladstone, west on Dawson highway, left onto The Monto road, right onto tablelands road and then left on to Rowanlea Rd, takes you down to the creek. The geological survey map I found from 1901 is very detailed and precise as I checked it on Google earth. Even has a cross section of the ground showing were the crystals are found. And they are identified as Androsite Garnets, doesn't say what colour. The ground is layers of decomposed granite, limestone, wollastonite with seams of epidote. Sounds very interesting. [/QUOTE]
