[QUOTE="Imadogman, post: 105706, member: 813"] I've mulled over whether or not to post on this because I don't know the exact circumstances of the fossicking. I think it is great that an obviously keen couple is having a good go. However, personally I am a bit concerned about the pictures in this post as they show a lot of muddy water in a possibly flowing stream and also a lot of work in terms of piles of tailings and holes. Given the current issues around the report by the environmental commission, and their push to reduce sluicing, and the green propaganda machine, it would be good to have pictures that: [u]did not show [/u]water siltation in the process of sluicing and [u]did show [/u]that the necessary backfilling and make good after the sluicing has in taken place. It would be good if you could post photos of the 'after' job as well -- for the benefit of sluicers so they can see that it is the right thing to backfill all holes, even in the creeks. This is an issue for all sluicers everywhere, but especially for Victoria where the microscope is on what you do. [/QUOTE]
