[QUOTE="Guest, post: 45325"] Yep its a drawn out process alright but I was able to get info on around a dozen or so crown land blocks eventually. It took me 2-3 months & many emails etc. In the end the breakthrough was pointing out, nicely, that under NSW law I was required to have permission before fossicking on any land & that the NSW fossicking guidelines says to get the info from local council or them. After I showed them correspondence from council saying they didn't have access to crown land status & the relevant parts of the guidelines they then agreed that indeed I did need that information from them. I must say the lady I dealt with was quite good but had to follow internal procedure. By rights she could have charged me $11 per inquiry but waived it as I wasn't a mining company etc. The whole process was laughable & I can't see why basic status info can't be added to SIX, ArcGIS etc. Would save a lot of drama on both ends.
