⭐ Gold Detecting Show'n Tell

[Dignit]

Had a great day out yesterday in the Vic GT with Chuky Boy.
A personal best for me as far as quantity goes in one day ...... 8 little bits. Small but at least I'm finding them. Rapt!

I put the gold finds for each trip in a little display container and record the place and date. Can't wait until I can't fill the little container. It is just a matter of time. Boots on ground with GPX4500 & Coiltek Elite 11" Mono
Cheers until next time. Dig'n-it.

I'm hearing you dam it, some people play sport other hobbies it cost money at least with prospecting there is a chance of a return. Most of them small yes but it's like fishing its good to catch something even if it is a carp. For me im happy just to be in the bush what a wonderful country we have

Got 2 hrs off yesterday after making mother days breakfast and earning a few brownie points, so headed to Maryborough for a swing in the rain. The EMI was terrible but still managed to ping these between old diggings. I had to leave as it was dark so covered my tracks and will be back next weekend as I have found a nice patch. Best thing of all no lead shot or trash which is amazing for the area.

 

[SCROUNGER]

Nice Tryhard, with the 7?

 

[BigWave]

Very pleasing on the eye TH

 

[SteelPat]

Only a couple for me on Saturday - just on 1 gram. Dont know why but after an hour or so my head just wasnt in the game. I have found another area though where the track is blocked off by a tree so it hasnt been detected for a while. Thats next weekends project.

 

[BigWave]

Interesting looking nuggets SP. Best of luck on your new patch

Nice Tryhard, with the 7?

Yeah mate, that is all I use now, the SDC is packed under the floor as a backup, or for pin pointing when required.

 

[Dignit]

Nice finds Tryhard and Steeelpat.
Tryhard. Congrats on the 7000 ....... look forward to the day when I can afford one.
Steelpat, sounds like you may need the chain saw next trip.

 

[SteelPat]

Dig'n-it - I can walk into the area. If I cut the tree then others will be able to access it too easily. I need to have a good look over the ground first

Gday Steelpat,
I opened up a track about 3 years ago in the Ballarat area and within a week the place was flogbed.
I did the same as you and had gone over the area for about 2 months before I removed the log.
It was amazing to see how quickly a spot can be ruined by greedy, uncaring, non hole filling, rubbish leaving selfish morons.
Since then I have always put the log back in place or walked in, it leaves the bush in a much better state.
Cheers Steve

 

[tryhard1968]

I agree Stoyve I much prefer to put the backpack on and walk in if it takes me an hour so bee it, it really reduces the number of people accessing the are, I tend to find that its the lazy ones that make a mess and they are typically the type that want to drive right to the spot.

Some recent adelaide hills bits. 0.29g with the 14x9" evo, 0.52g with 17x13" evo, 1.18g with 12" evo. Gpx5000 still sniffs them out

Good thinking.
