[QUOTE="aussiefarmer, post: 386504, member: 5729"] Well my conclusion would be the gold has been placed there in recent floods , hopefully very recent as that proposes a great chance of tracing the gold upstream to its source , but recent could mean 50/80 years ago also. The deeper gravels have quite simply been there longer so either they were processsed back in the gold rushes or possibly were placed there in a time period when there were no activily shedding reefs upstream. If the bedrock has never been cleaned in history there would be a good chance of gold being on it as the gold has filtered down out of the gravels you are finding at 2ft deep. Gold in the top gravels makes life easy so your on a winner :Y: [/QUOTE]
