[QUOTE="gragagan, post: 648663, member: 14786"] How did you go, did you make it up there? Never been myself but have done a bit of research. One of those places that I'd like to explore but whenever I'm in the area I just end up going where there's guaranteed gold with guaranteed access haha. From historical records the gold appears to be associated with pyritic granite, and was extremely fine. They would sluice the decomposed granite soil. They also sluiced out all of the watercourses up there. Probably worth a look out of curiosity, dunno if there'd be any gold to find though. There are a few small creeks near there which might be worth investigating. Just need to check up on no fossicking zones as there are some active mining exploration leases in the area. I know the gated road you are talking about, I wish that gate wasn't there. Nuff said about that. In Girard have you tried to access Mt Richmond? I haven't Cheers [/QUOTE]
