[QUOTE="RedDirtDigger, post: 245405, member: 2964"] Through a few years of going through the newspaper articles on the Trove database I have noticed that when reference is made to breaking up specimens or cleaning up gold in a "tub" it usually means a wooden tub and they were sometimes mentioned as being square. I took it to mean rough made wooden tubs that were commonly made on the goldfields for washing/breaking up gold. RDD [/QUOTE]
