Hi all, Wasn't sure whether I should even put this article in.
I have a friend who wants to sell his goldmine. It's located in some godforsaken area in the Pilbara called Nullagai (or something spelt this way). Anyway it's at mosquito creek and it's called the Parnell gold mine. He had an assay done showing that it can produce 1 onz of gold per one cubic metre of rock. Just for the fun of it, I did once put it on gumtree and I had a squillion inquiries about it and people telling me that they have front end loaders and bob cats, picks and shovels, etc etc and wanted to come but not one genuine offer to buy.
SO, if you got cash, why not buy a real gold mine instead of playing around with concentrates. I can get a few dollars commission for finding a buyer hahahah and everyone's happy.
The downsize is that there is no machinery except a few rusty implements, an old tin shed. The temperature nearly killed him a few months ago when it reached 48c
and if you die out there no one will find you for years. No mobile connection. Not sure if the flies exist, I think the heat killed them.
Like I said, I'm not sure whether I should have put this in. At least it gives food for thought on how hard the the miners had it.
