Rest in peace Jaros, we had a few chats on the phone a few years back, always helpful, always a gentleman, will be missed by all for a long time. I'll catch you on the other side one day mate and we'll give that 45 a hammering!

Thanks solid Luck, some water to play in at least

Any update on how well Slaty is flowing?

Hey guys, I'm still yet to get up to the creek. I do have the chance to get there tomorrow though. Does anyone know what the flow is like? If It's flowing enough I promise I'll post some colour for those that need their gold fix

Cheers guys, I might head up there for a quick look around and find a nice pool to wash a few pans before it dries out completely. I'll just leave the sluice at home

Hey Hard Luck thanks for the update on how it's flowing, it's great for those of us that need to travel quite a way to get there to know what to expect when we get there. How often do you go through the area?

That's a nice score out of one crevice! Definitely an area to go over thoroughly

Hi, I was there yesterday. Franco is right, it's not running, but a few nice decent sized clear pools good for panning. They won't last more than a couple of weeks though. Being dry is ok for a short day of panning, nice and easy to get access to hard to get to areas, classify and pan in a...

Welcome Cipedead and son. What has worked for me is to go to locations where getting colour in your pan is 'almost' guaranteed. That way you can work on your technique in the field and learn more about how gold moves in creeks etc. Books, maps and research is most definitely needed, but with...
