    Mineral claims

    Hi everyone! I hope everyone is finding the yellow shiny in this new season! 😊 So back in the late 1800-1900 when the old guys put down mineral claims, did they do this for gold and were these the equivalent to putting down a prospecting lease in this day and age? Cheers

    What is this?

    Found a heap of this on the last family prospecting trip. It looks like little tubes in quartz or something but it has made a massive amount of little crystals. Does anyone know anything about this? What it is or how it was formed?

    Course for understanding geology and finding gold bearing areas?

    Hi Everyone I was at Reeds in midland the other day and was told they do a course that helps you find locations by understanding the geology and read geo maps properly so you can put yourself within 20m of gold bearing ground. Has anyone attended this course and what are there thoughts on it?

They had quite good luck and I was wondering if anyone here has tried a GPZ7000 on or around our salt lakes? Do they handle the salt or is there way to much interference...
