Hello all Some more SDC finds from the GT. The Mossies were bigger than the nuggets and they were in swarms biting me through my shirt in the middle of the day. I think I got Aeroguard poisoning. :lol: Total of 1.38g and .87g was the biggest. Regards Anthony.

Hello all. Tried detecting around the Heathcote area multiple times for no gold. Went for a family holiday at Easter and thought I would bring the detectors and sneak off for a quick swing. Found a small section of diggings that no one obviously had gone over with the SDC. Got lucky in a...
