[QUOTE="Xiang, post: 649119, member: 9940"] Tib is one of our favourite places on the planet. Not just for the gold but for the ambience of the country. The Tibooburra goldfields are situated in unique country. We have always had a great deal of fun staying in the caravan park and socialising with others, both prospectors and tourists. Years ago we used to stay out on the fields but as one gets older the temptation of water, power and heater for the cold nights is too great. Last year our visit was limited to two weeks and we only detected for about 3 or 4 hours a day. Most of the time we simply enjoyed the warm weather and lazed about in the sun. Gold is not the big driver it once was. Years ago when we could camp on the common and most of the other fields such as Mt Brown and Mt Pool we did so and found our share of gold. Up to a few years ago we were still finding over a thousand little bits for a few weeks work but the weight wasn't a lot even then. Maybe an ounce or two. Back around I wrote my first Ebook on how and where to find gold at Tib. I finally followed it up with a paper version that was a huge success. I kept updating it every year but as sales have dropped off I stopped printing them. That was only last year. Unfortunately we may never get back to Tibooburra but we have some wonderful memories of a unique and wonderful place. Over 1000 little Tibooburra nuggets.
