[QUOTE="rod, post: 103035, member: 2474"] Hi kawman mate, i looked but couldnt find an existing overlay. Invaders technique would work for boundries of state forest, rivers ect, but would take along time to do the whole map. I have some print maps with exact locations i am going to try and scan, make transparent, resize and overlay on the state forest map, will let you know how it goes and if it works. I didnt realise either that the stop mining group up there had it within their demands that ALL the state forest up there be converted to national parks, glad it didnt pass, but they still managed converted a bunch of spots to np in around 2006 and spell the end for cluff mine through constant legal harrassment, and unfourtunately most of the best gem bearing deposits now sit in the np, not all but most of the best. I did however in my exploration find that geodes, amathyst and clear lined and calcite lined, exist futher south of dog trap creek road rhyolite outcrop, didnt find the eggs themselves yet , but found broken geode pieces with amathyst, calcite ect, meaning that upstream a rhyolite outcrop is eroding geodes that make it to the river and get smashed in their journey down it. My search up the river ended at the boundry of the glen nature reserve( the rhyolite outcrop was within the reserve and hence off limits) but i have yet to check further south where there is state forest.
