[QUOTE="VicGoldHunter, post: 481707, member: 9027"] Thanks so much for the detailed reply, Ive done thorough research looking at old books etc and the mines in my town it was hard rock mining looking for quartz veins, deep shafts and mines bringing ore back to the surface and crushing at a battery. But theres also old stories of a 1.8kg nugget found and gold bearing quartz veins which started them mining in the area to begin with Which Id assume was near the surface? Another town close by had alluvial gold I know for a fact and was known to have nuggets which apparently was unusual for east Victoria? But Im wondering if these are detectable or very deep in the ground. The informations all there Ive been looking for but vague as to the general depth and terrain they were found. Another thing I found was that near the opening of the mine there is heaps of holes and mounds in the ground, what are these? [/QUOTE]
