[QUOTE="Matrix007, post: 631737, member: 22393"] There is an old book by Len Dallow, Dellow ? He was from the Southern Rock Hounds he made lots of mud maps in this book it had places from all over South Australia including Mount Crawford, I and a friend used the book on many occasions and found some nice stones one place we found some small garnets on a track followed them for a bit up a slight hill till they stopped so then we started digging on the left side of the track and dug up 50 cent size garnets covered with mica the stones had a lot of cracks but they where in a small slip or fault that would have cracked them under alot of pressure if you dug away from the slip the garnets may be better, if you can find the place it's around the corner from a car park? Will see If I can find the book I will give you more information, it was like digging up potatoes. [/QUOTE]
