[QUOTE="Lefty, post: 151095, member: 2976"] Interesting about the agate there, hopefully you find out some more. The agate deposit just off the old Tannum road does exist, we used to pick it up there when I was a kid. But - you guessed it - you're not allowed to go there. :( The site is in the bounds of the sand and granite boulder quarry. Our club treasurer rang them a while ago to ask if our members could have permission to look over their rock pile - the woman on the other end of the phone laughed at her. I have heard of the garnet not far from Calliope but can't find anyone who knows exactly where. The Gladstone/Rocky region - so much promising geology but so very, very few fossicking opportunities.
