[QUOTE="Goldtarget, post: 625076, member: 2152"] Hey mate, you never stated the type of machine, might help with some responses in your thread. There is still quieter ground out there that hasnt been worked (or at least overworked), but the days are numbered and localised knowledge is going to be a big help. As things dry out the monos will settle a little if that helps. Try picking an area then get into trove and use pipeclay and gold in your search. This might help narrow down a list of diggings you can reach and put boots on the ground. Ive found gold with sdc, GM and Nox 800 working mullocks and surrounding areas where the gold was recovered in the pipclay. The bigger frustration is then the junk and lead. And dealing with the snakes and flies, the mud tree branches and maps. I like to split my time from the huge mining mullocks which noone used to crawl all over to the diggers holes where the pay layer starts only a couple inches down and drops away. White Hills was called that for that reason for example. And out in places say like Redcastle and Bailleston theres mullocks mined from god knows how many feet (maybe hundreds) piled 40 odd foot high and 30 feet round. But off the top of my head, Bendigo, Rushworth, Reef Hills, Buckland, Tarnagulla, Heathcote all have spots where the biggest distraction will be EMI not ground noise, but equally have hot areas. Youll just need to zero in a bit, and maybe pick up some tips if need be. Id take hot ground and a bit of frustration but thats jmo. [/QUOTE]
