[QUOTE="Chuky boy, post: 172063, member: 5620"] this info is very helpful. I am only new to prospecting and every bit of advice helps. I have tried a few spots behind ballarat without success. I did notice a square cut shaft about 1.5m x 1.5m wide and it looked as though it dropped at least 25 to 30ft straight down. I feel like i am wasting my time in these areas as the depth of this shaft tells me that the gold must be way way down. Also the trash i got around these sites was very deep in very soft soil almost like fertalizer. Are there any aids to determine how close the bedrock is to the surface? [/QUOTE]
