[Bugsey]

Here's a few pics from a trip out to an old gold with a few friends. I thought I would share them with you guys

wow that is lovely!!
Wicked photos!! Thanks!
Look at the size of the screen they were using? There must have been BIG gold around there????
If its allowed, I would still rub a coil on their rock heap!! If there's a target, it'll be big!!!

Where was that, I recon it would be great to show the kids.

 

[Bugsey]

I would like to tell you where it is but i am not allowed to say anything at the moment.

Gm is right (as usual) Bugsey 'ol boy .... Get into, and under, and all around that rock pile! .. And get a load of the run on that sluice!! .. Do you know anything about the history of the mine? .. Might be a few heavy metals of the nastier variety around there too if there's a crusher site in there.

The reason why Bugsey can't disclose the details about this particular site is because its an upcoming lease that is currently under negotiation

 

[Gold miner]

Thats two differant trommels too eh?

 

[Nugget]

It sure is GM and I think the worlds longest sluice :lol:

It's nice to see these old machines still intact...

 

[Ag Man]

That looks very cool.
Thank you for sharing the pictures.
Would have been awesome to seen it running hey...

 

[Bugsey]

Maybe will get pics of them running one day. Just need to talk to some people first to get permission. I know one of them still works and the other needs a bit of work to get it going. Im not to sure on the history of them will get more info when i can.

Bugger oh so its private lol. If the sluice dosnt work you could use it as a slippery slide.

 

[Bugsey]

Yeah sorry Pauly it is on private property but in time things might change and your kids might get to see and old trommel.

Good looking spot, good luck guys I hope it works out in your favour, Cheers

 

[Bugsey]

Yeah it is a top spot and fingers and everything else crossed it all works out just a lot of red tape in the way at the moment.

 

[Pauly]

You got to love red tape. Good luck with it hope it comes good. I took the girls to a little open air museum at Stewart town with old farm working stuff on it and to my suprise they were interested so hopefully they will be interested in gold as well.
