[QUOTE="argyle, post: 23122, member: 1008"] I love to see the puddlers out in the bush. Everyone has detected them, me included. I only know one bloke that ever got a small piece out of one. Usually they are full of small iron junk. I don't ever detect anywhere near them anymore. There are a few heritage listed ones getting about, one is still wood-lined and looks terrific. I've seen a couple destroyed over the years, bit of a shame, but at least they were only smaller insignificant ones and no more important than any old costean. There was no cyanide used in the ones we see out in the bush. We can't be too green about them. They were gouged into the ground and caused massive damage from the sludge run-off. But, we still shouldn't touch em and put ourselves in fire from those that would like us out of the bush. We will have enough trouble in future from greenies that won't allow us to touch mullock heaps in the future, and wolves in sheep's clothing calling themselves the PMAV, sucking detectorists into joining, when their sole purpose is really to keep their machinery running and gouging great moonscapes over hectares.
