[QUOTE="mbasko, post: 649160, member: 4485"] Basically it's just how things are worded in WA legislation & doesn't mean too much in the scheme of things. You still need a WA Miners Right to either Fossick or Prospect in WA. If you're Prospecting you can use a metal detector & search for all minerals including gold & diamonds. If you aren't using a metal detector & aren't searching for gold or diamonds you are Fossicking. It's splitting hairs really because anyone with a WA Miners Right would/should just say they are prospecting to cover all bases anyway?
