[QUOTE="Maldon Gold Centre, post: 395218, member: 11129"] That's precisely what it means. The differences between South Australia and Victoria are largely historic. In Victoria most of the miner's rights (prospector's rights) come from the history of push back by miners against the state in the 1850s & 1860s. In South Australia there wasn't that historic background to mineral rights and mineral rights have always been associated with claims, mining license and royalty systems. Some of this history can also be traced back to the opal mining boom which led to a very different legislative landscape when it comes to mining. There are many vested interests in South Australia when it comes to prospecting and the rights of prospectors. None of these vested interests are favourable to the prospecting community. [/QUOTE]
