[QUOTE="GMT Bandit, post: 47110, member: 1619"] Went out to the white swan near ballarat today. I bought the gold atlas of Victoria which indicated that 2 large nuggets where found near there. Unfortunately it's fenced off and was unable to get near to where the nuggets where found. Also the atlas didn't give me an idea of the depth they where found at. So I kept driving till I found what seemed to be a good area. Lots of old digs and one shaft that was so deep I couldn't see the bottom. Down side was that there was a lot of shell casings and garbage. Found a horse shoe and some nails. Dug out a twisted god knows what. It was a great chance to try out my Xmas present to myself - the Garrett pin pointer. Saved so much time digging. Found the garbage straight up lol. So any words of wisdom for a frustrated newbie??? I'm going to try and do some beach prospecting to get my confidence back up. I just find digging up all this crap a little demoralising. But I guess you've got to do your time. 8) [/QUOTE]
