[QUOTE="Hawkear, post: 663139, member: 4728"] Just a few thoughts to add into the discussion. Note also how steep or shallow the ground is. The chances are that this rate of deepening will be reflected under the surface of the later sediments. Gently sloping ground should theoretically give more width for detecting nuggets carried into the sediments. I'd be looking not so much at the middle of sedimentary areas that can be many meters deep and certainly out of range of detectors but at the contact areas between the gold bearing sediments and the rocks which contained the gold reefs. The inked or plotted contour lines on Geo maps can equate to a width of many meters on the ground and are often poorly defined. But I think that would be a good place to start looking.
