    Gold detecting Mount Crawford SA

    It is an unwritten protocol that you do not ask people where they found gold. It would be similar to asking people about there banking details and their pin number.

    Nullagine Gold WA

    Close around Nullagine being easy to access unfortunately means over the years a lot of the ground has been covered, similarly, so has Mosquito Creek area. In saying that though, the areas are very large and no one ever covers it all or gets it all. Perhaps the only thing I could suggest is...

    What do I do

    Sorry to hear about your dilemma kemjak57. I have often wondered what would happen if a parcel of gold was sent through the mail and was either lost or stolen.

    Gold for sale

    That"s why generally some people sell gold for spot price, less 10% for purity. I think that's a fair deal all round, except for nice jewelry nuggets. Nice gold though, you must have been pretty chuffed finding that lot, great effort.
