May you continue to keep crushing it in that big gym in the sky... Legend ! https://youtu.be/aBDdcY0Wx0I

Since purchasing the 4500, I haven't used the SDC a whole lot, it mostly gets used when the Mrs comes out with me for the day. I took it for a spin the other day to a spot where i have found gold with the 4500, and managed to rescue two babies at 0.11 and 0.05. I use ear bud headphones and...

I know a few people missed the last one due to clouds.... Should be pretty clear on the east coast this time https://www.broadsheet.com.au/national/city-file/article/incredible-meteor-shower-blazing-through-australias-skies

I love the history behind these finds. http://www.migrationheritage.nsw.gov.au/exhibition/objectsthroughtime/trial-bay-buttons/index.html

I was out yesterday mucking around with settings on the 4500...an endless journey of discovery :D I found some ground where I was able to run in Special -> Sharp... Crikey! I wish I could run in that all the time! My pick has never been so annoying, had to keep it well over my shoulder while...

I was thinking about adapting a backpack to carry my GPX battery, for those times when I explore on foot a fair distance from the car. The front pocket is narrow and would carry the battery snuggly, but it would be in a vertical/end to end position, as opposed to how it sits in the harness. Do...

I recently bought the Coiltek 10x5 mono as an unused 2nd hand item off fleabay. It definitely looked unused when it arrived. I took it for a spin and picked up a nice speccie on it's first outing, so I guess it works :) It's a quiet coil, runs nice and smooth, but I did find it very bump...

I was just wondering if anyone runs their Mono coils in the DD position? I've been using a DD coil to work some pretty tough ground (high mineralisation and a plethora of hot rocks) thinking it would be better at handling those conditions. Changed to a Mono coil in the DD position and it out...

In the process of moving, and there's not much left in the house, but and old couch and TV remain :lol: I'm not a Ford fan, but Winterbottom grew up in the same 'hood as me, so I'll be sending my energy his way :D :Y:

Wooooooooo......!!!!!

I picked up this bad boy on special last week, from the legends at Central West Prospecting Supplies... https://www.cwpsupplies.com.au/product/g14-river-sluice-box-sluicy-gold-prospecting-equipment/ I took it for a test yesterday, only putting through approximately the equivalent of five pans...

I was wondering if a pinpointer would be a valid tool for running over material that has been tipped out of a sieve to check for any small gold nuggets/speccies? Would they also be capable of detecting gold inside a small piece of quartz, say golf ball size?

Found this last week at Black Springs, not sure if it's just a unique piece of quartz, or something more??

I'm considering doing a bit of blackberry bush clearing, with a view to gaining better access to some productive areas. I have a Stihl line trimmer, but not sure its up to the challenge. I'm not planning on clearing massive areas, just a bit here and there as I go. I like the shredding...

I grabbed a few crevicing tools and went in and started scratching around, but the staff were yelling at me and told me to get out ;)

Was out scratching around in a new area (for me) on the weekend, and this stuff below was everywhere... Is it some kind of Ironstone conglomerate? Did find a bit of quartz in the area too, but not heaps. Had a quick swing and pan in the creeks, but no colour in the areas I checked. Is it...

Even gym sessions take on a prospecting perspective these days :)

I've been looking for a long heavy duty bag to transport my picks, shovel, crow bar on the roof racks. Eventually I'd like to get a basket/tray to put them in, but at the moment, it would make the Landy too tall to fit under the carport, and I don't want to be putting a tray on and taking it off...
