Thanks everyone, WalnLiz, mentioned among other things, the goldfields, which reminded me of when I first thought of prospecting, it was 1987 & I went & got my Miners rights & went to Kalgoorlie for a long weekend with the wife & kids to "find some gold", I found plenty of metal Ha Ha, but no gold, had a White 6000D detector, was the first & last time I used it, I was so naive & disillusioned, now it's 2013 & I thought I might give prospecting another bash, but only for coins or jewellery etc this time, I've only an old Garrett A2D at the moment, but will probably buy a AT Pro soon.
