[QUOTE="user 4386, post: 418754, member: 4386"] Often the associated rock is a clue (eg chrysoprase is usually associated with serpentinite or a fairly mafic rock). I remember the early days at Wingellina during the nickel boom. Some Indigenous guys came into camp excited and said there were "Kadaitcha Man" footprints on the airstrip. The blokes rushed out for a look - didn't find any but when they returned the grog had disappeared.... Although Kadaitcha was supposedly not practiced after the 1930s, a pair of boots (emu feathers held together with blood) were found by a mate under a rock ledge in perfect condition. Getting way off track... [/QUOTE]
