[QUOTE="Brumble-Gum, post: 70957, member: 1569"] Clermont is the best nuggetty goldfield closest to Yeppoon, I always liked Birimgan Fossiking area. CQ gemfields for sapphires. There is gold between the oaks and emu park however this is all on private property. Anywhere along the Tungamall (Spelling ?) fault will show gold in the creeks. Canoona is north of Rocky this gold has a magnetic, black coating around it. Once again private property. Don't throw out black rocks that sound good if you head over the railway line from the monument. My Morgan has gold in the creeks if you want to pan. Beware of the Dee river as it has high mercury and chemicals in it. There is a pay to dig thunder egg Fossiking business just outside of Cabra heading towards Dingo/Blackwater you can dig your own and they cut them for you. I can't remember the name of the place but it is professionally run and has food and beverages availability. A must if visiting the area. Make sure you have a QLD Fossiking permit and a Clermont Fossiking area permit as well if you head over that way. Good luck. [/QUOTE]
