    Digging tool information

    Hello from Victoria

    Hello everyone, The name's John, I'm 21 and I haven't done any prospecting or fossicking before but I am looking to try it out over these Christmas holidays. Not looking to make a fortune or anything just want to try something new and maybe find some really cool things along the way.
