[QUOTE="Lefty, post: 370372, member: 2976"] This stuff just INFURIATES me!!!! :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: It only takes one greedy or vexatious idiot to forever destroy a good fossicking site for everyone - and it just seems to happen again and again and again! Either someone takes an excavator in without permission or some clown trips over their own feet and hurts themselves and decides to sue the property owner. Here in Queensland, the Chudleigh Park peridot diggings and the Springsure opalised wood deposit have both suffered these fates while the garnet dig at Proston was closed for related reasons (new owners apparently decided risk of law suits was too high these days) and the topaz diggings at Mount Gibson now have very strict entry conditions attached after someone fell on the mountainside and sued the property owner. At this rate there won;t be anything left in five or ten years time. There just doesn't seem to be any way to stop the 1% from ruining it for the other 99% :( [/QUOTE]
