Thanks, Ian.

I have the landowner's permission if you're referring to that. But my question is, besides the legal aspects, which is important, more about other experiences in that particular region, etc.

Does anyone have experience prospecting in the areas between Peterborough and Dawson, the Mid-North region of South Australia? I'll camp there for a few days and try my GPX 4500. Besides having permission from the land-owner(s), which I have, are there any other things I need to keep in mind...

Well, let's pretend I didn't ask and thanks for reminding me on the unwritten rules ;)

Not sure what kind of coil I have (waiting for delivery), but I assume it comes with the standard coil (I'm buying a 2nd hand GPX). Do you reckon the listed settings can be used for both 11" and 14" coils? Or is it specific for the 11" Commander Mono. Cheers

Hi, @PeterInSa I'm heading to Mt Crawford Forest Reserve again. Are you willing to share some areas where you were lucky enough to find gold? Cheers

Thanks @Nightjar much appreciated

Sure, will do.

That is my impression too. However, I indicated some parcels on SARIG with CR titles. I will contact the relevant authority(ies) and determine if this is a go/no-go for prospectors.

Is it because of the legal aspect - a combination of land with gold, which is in the hands of private (or corporate) landowners and can't be accessed without permission? Or because there is much less gold in SA than in WA/VIC? Most likely a combination of both? I'm trying to get a better...

Thanks, and yes, and I had another look. The following I found on the site: Where can I go and fossick? There are a number of historical fossicking sites within South Australia which are open to the public for fossicking. If you want to fossick on private property, you must obtain the...

See my question below ↓ On the website https://www.environment.sa.gov.au/topics/crown-land/south-australias-crown-land there's information on the different Crown Land titles in South Australia. So, I'm using SARIG to explore the different parcels in SA where; A. gold has been found in the...

Hi all, a year ago, I started off with the Minelab Equinox 800. I found some fun stuff on the beaches of SA but more exciting things on the fields in Eastern Germany. I also tried my luck in finding gold in Mount Crawford and, more recently, in Talbot, VIC. Nothing but scrap and a noisy...

I made up my mind and try in the next 3 days a little bit of detecting in the Mt Crawford Forest Reserve. I have my Nox 800 and 10x5" coil with me and am ready to collect my first gold detecting experience (and hopefully with some good results too). I'm aware that there are better areas and...

Hi Bryan, I'm still up for a little exploration at your farm. Just let me know when (a couple of date options would be great) and what I need to bring (I have a tent and fully equipped except for a toilet) Greetings from Adelaide, Vasco

Hi Bryan. That's some story you got there. I would like to hear where the farm is (at least the region), so I can do a little research on the SARIG website. We can then discuss and see if it's worth trying. I'll send you a PM or email. Cheers

Hello everyone, To give you a quick summary: EQUINOX 800 Interested in Gold detecting Beginner but keen to learn Interested in joining other detectorists in SA in search of aurum (Au) but only during the weekend Cheers

Now I see it.. :) Yeah, happy swinging!

Wow, that's some story :o And you're right about planning stuff. Tricky but hopefully eases down asap. We hope to visit Talbot VIC around Easter. Haven't started my 'research' yet but looking forward to it!

@OzzieAu - thanks for mentioning the App! :perfect: Downloaded the software and together with SARIG it completes my 'toolbox' in search of CR / CL land! Cheers
