Hi Everyone,
I just wished to thank everyone that made my weekend possible and fill you in on how we went.
It wouldnt have been possible without advice from Wal, (Wal I was the bloke upstream yesterday in the high Vis, I wanted to thank you personally but you moved on before I had a chance. thank you very much).
Also a big thanks to Colin and Fae? Showing me the technic and what I was looking for was amazing and without your instruction we would have found didly also the hints on the location further up was great.
Also you have to fo give me I am terrible with names the Gent in the wadders from Sydney with his wife thanks for the laugh and showing us the big stuff we were after. We are still to clean out the concentrate from our high banker I am just a little excited by the prospect of what is in there.
Any way the results from my less than reliable scale you see in the picture 5 sapphires totalling 9 crt the biggest I am calling the good bye kiss in Polish(Dowidzenia buzi) was found whilst walking out to go home weighed in at 4.5crt and was found in a foot print of the person that walked before me. Whilst it is not massive by any extent I am rather excited by it has been the first time we have actually come home from prospecting with a good result. We hope to make it back again one day might be a regular Queens birthday trip. The weather was great except for Monday.
Saw a peacock as well for the first time in the wild, Arent peacock associated with sapphires? Sign we were destined to find one???
Anyway thanks again to everyone for the advice on the weekend we had a great time and we found what we wanted
P.s Whats up with the cat seems to be domesticated and friendly. Anyone in the area should look at taking her one to save the native life around and two to give her a good home. She climbed in the car to but 2 cats at home and 8 hour drive wasnt going to be on the cards for her.
