    Search my mum's land (near Forster NSW)!

    I hope to have a vehicle by then but if not would it be possible to come out later in the year Malone?

    Search my mum's land (near Forster NSW)!

    Hi Malone I'd love to tag along behind you if that is ok, but only trouble is my vehicle is in for smash repairs and they are having trouble finding the parts to replace the damage with. But, when it's all repaired I'll try to remember your kind offer and let you know.

    Detectormods

    Yes, and if someone wants bod to take along on a trip to the gold fields for a coaching session and a detecting trip (I don't bite nor smoke, but like a beer on a hot day or after a long hard slog). Let me know if anyone is interested in taking an old sole out to teach them something about the...

    Detectormods

    Only had the chance of using it on the beach so far, and it's depth amazed me so can't wait to use it on the gold fields as it is small enough to get in the tight spaces as well as detect normally.

    Hi Mackka Thanks for that, has the property been sold yet, if not would you Mother mind me going over there for a pan and detect session? Yours in Gold Stuart

    Detectormods

    Hi mbasko I will do just that, put out a "who wants to meet up". Also, wasn't really thinking of putting the mod on my detector, that is what the question was about, perhaps I wrote it incorrectly, but it was to have some opinions about the mods put out there for others to see that may help...

    Detectormods

    I'm have 4 coils, 3 came with the detector when new, and bought one off the Internet which is supposed to find gold deeper, but haven't used it on the gold bearing grounds yet, only the beach and wow, it goes deep alright, punches real deep, better than those others. It's mono Detech brand...

    Detectormods

    Hi I only asked as have seen in the Gold Gem and Treasure the add sprukes so well when read and no one has ever had anything the GG&T magazine to say good or bad investment. "(Question is, has anyone had this done to their machine and was it worth the cost, as it's not cheap but then again...

    Detectormods

    Thanks for that, I'll keep on keeping on researching and going for gold without the mod, and as I'd love a 6000 it's way out of my ball park now on a pension.

    Detectormods

    Hi All I will have some ready cash soon, and am thinking about taking on the "detectormods" to give my Minelab 4500 a boost and bit of extra in the hunt for gold. Question is, has anyone had this done to their machine and was it worth the cost, as it's not cheap but then again, gold would pay...

    Windeyer NSW fossicking

    Give it a while and gold panning and for a change, river sluicing will be great as the gold will be out from hiding for many yonks. 😁 😁 😁

    Newbie from the Manning area, gold hunting

    Hi Tony and Robyn Be careful, the Cells have been taken over by National Parks and they have closed it off to anyone detecting, sluicing or panning for gold there. Heavy fines have already been dished out to those who chance their day of glory there.

    Hi from Forster NSW

    Hi Roger I love a quiet creek - have something on common there. But NSW is devoid of any of the yellow stuff as far as I've been around, you may know of somewhere there may be some yellow to be found. I live in Tuncurry so in the area you are wanting. If interested let me know. Cheers Stuart

    How Emergency Services View Prospectors

    Being someone who was in the NSW Rural Fire Service for 39 years, I never go out alone prospecting, always take out a GPS and Mobile Phone and like the idea of that USB Key GPS that XLOOX mentioned and will look at getting one of those if they can be found easily. My training in the RFS back...

    Turon River NSW level status

    I'll be heading up that way with my river sluice and trusty pan plus detector this spring, hoping to find a little colour. Not a greedy sole, so just a tad will wet my gold bug appetite some. 😁😁😁
