[QUOTE="ProspectorPete, post: 403750, member: 3820"] Hi Doug, the hole is pretty deep from what I could tell, I wasn't getting too close but are about 4 similar holes around the top like this and looks like the also went in from 2 sides near the top, the reef is at the top and still exposed and I'm quite sure they went under it from the sides. As mentioned, there are 3 gullies that run off this hill and all 3 have signs of workings, the best one was surfaced to bedrock and signs of surfacing between gullies where the puddler is. As far as targets go it was pretty clean, I spent 2 solid days detecting the 2 best gullies with 14x9 evo and 15 evo on the deeper sections and only managed 2 shot pellets and some old tin rust for about 12 hrs effort, there were signs that the area had been raked probably 6-12 months ago as there were a lot of branches stacked along small trees in the gullies but not much sign of detecting on the deeper ground between the gullies and heading back up the hill, just the odd detector hole from a while back so it may be worth another trip one weekend to detect deep with the 15 evo in that area before deciding it's future prospects on my list.
