[QUOTE="Ded Driver, post: 512440, member: 12692"] Im fairly sure there are no rivers in WA exempt from the rules. All rivers in WA are treated & regulated the same. There is a bloke who has just been granted a Gold Prospecting Lease down near Donnybrook in the South West. In the early days there were a couple of small gold mines down there (shaft/underground dug by hand) but they weren't profitable. It is possible there may still be a tiny bit of gold in some of the streams around that way, but a couple of mining companies have either leases or EL's over most of the area (lithium, tin, tantalum & bauxite are the main ores), so permission &/or an E40 permit would be required. The land in this region is predominantly private farmland, State Forest, & National Parks. [/QUOTE]
