[QUOTE="Moneybox, post: 533450, member: 3960"] Northeast, my guess is that you haven't had a crack at it over here yet. I have to say that in the limited time I've been detecting in WA I've not yet found a spot that didn't produce boot tacks, fragments of coloured glass, horse shoes, old cans and other ancient throwaways. I really don't think there's much of WA's gold bearing ground that hasn't been wandered over by the old timers and where they found gold the detectors have followed. It must be around 50 years since metal detectors started scouring our big broad land and I wonder how many hundreds of thousands of detectors are actually out there. We have six and all but one has found gold and in every state of Australia that we've swung a detector I might add. Every state has gold, undoubtedly some have more but if you can't find it at home then a big trip might be a waist of time and money ;) [/QUOTE]
