    ⭐ Gold Detecting Show'n Tell

    Iv found the flat winds having more sens than previous coils have been getting some more than usual ground noises in the wetter clays here in central Vic after the soakings we have had recently. Normally quiet areas have been giving false positive signals here and there due to it. Some you would...

    Detecting with SDC2300 today at Tarnagulla

    Not sure what you mean about scales mate but here is a tip for tiny,s that are so small they won't initially weigh, not enough presence on the scales to say "hey, I'm here". Put something significant on first that weighs, say a shotty pellet or two or whatever and note the weight, then add your...

    hot rocks

    I never turf a hot rock that I detect till I check it right out. Have found numerous hotties that have had gold in them over the years. A good indication is to balance over it and then wave the coil back over it and see if it still gives the same signal as it did at the start. Most duds will...

    Holey dollar

    No that's fair enough comment to make. My mates had been detecting gold and relics from the 70,s, the start of detecting. Found rare Sovs, multi ounce nuggs on a regular basis. One bought a new car from a Sov and I can tell you these guys found nuggets hand over fist. I got into it around 1990...

    General National Weather advice and information

    Been getting some regular soaking here in Central Vic over the last few weeks but no drenching,s yet. Expecting some though. The local weather forecasters, the ants, are saying its coming. They've been building their nests up for the last 2 months. Last time they did this was 2010. Doesn't mean...

    Holey dollar

    Fakes, sleazes, the world is full of them now. Was shown some coins a few years ago that fooled me but the guy who showed me told me so afterwards to wise me up. The Chinese are counterfeiting everything these days including coins, its crazy. My mate then showed me the diff. The true coin...

    Very Dry In Clermont and not just the weather !

    Clermont dry for gold? :lol: You reckon JP would call a gold desert home? Know a few blokes who travel there annually and do real well. Just because you don't catch a fish don't mean there,s no fish in the ocean. :lol:

    Vic Goldfields arent always shades of brown and grey..

    Fair enough mate, damn that's some seriously greened up ground. None like that in the GT though we have had some good rain in the last few weeks. I asked because I used to do photography years ago on film and noticed when I went digital that everything got outrageously enhanced. Sunsets went...

    R.I.P. - Passing of Famous/Notable Persons

    Awesome fighter. Can you believe when I was a kid in grade 5 or 6 at school we were allowed to watch one of his title fights on the TV in the assembly room, our headmaster must have bee a big fan I guess. Imagine that in a primary school theses days, outrageous. Was super cool though and will...

    Size of.... old timer reports

    5 taps to answer this :lol: but I'll add, what people today call nuggets the oldies called colours or fine gold :lol: and I personally agree. A .01 called a nugget :lol: :lol: seriously, that is hilarious. Its like a pebble being called a rock, or a rock called a boulder. Stupid sooky poops...

    Colitek Mini Ufo

    Any of the older coils compared to the new flatties, Elites or Evo,s are like an old 2000 car compared to a 2016 model. Good in their day but dusted now.
