[QUOTE="Hawkear, post: 653241, member: 4728"] Another wet day in the GT to fill in and just pulled out my map folder. Have been collecting them since my interest in prospecting began. Used to go into the Mines department in Melbourne and view the maps they had for sale to see which ones I would buy to guide my next trip. Most are pretty well used and dog eared and some years ago made up a folder to store them flat and conserve them from further damage. A couple of my favorite maps are of the Maryborough mining district and Castlemaine goldfield. I know that there are more modern publications but I just love the older maps as they seem to emanate the time and effort put into producing them by the early Geological survey people. In a way they seem more authentic coming from such early sources. [/QUOTE]
