[QUOTE="Guest, post: 120553"] You are right Redfin re doze and detect. Bonds were as low as 2k and rarely more than 5k, so most took their chances and then left. Some would say it was worth losing 2k, others found little and went broke. The Mines Dept. then had to pay for the rehab. And as is common knowledge, you don't get much done for 2k. I know of one claim near Tarnagulla, that was on private land, on a very rich lead, that yielded less than 2 ounces of gold. And the landowner got half. In this case at least, the land was rehabilitated by the claim holder. But it shows the hit and miss nature of doze and detect, that caught many out. [/QUOTE]
