I have been reading on a website regarding prospecting in Vic and it says that we need a miners right which I happily purchased for 10 years at a cost of $20.40.
I am a bit confused with the info supplied as it says anything found is transferred to the person with the right but if a treasure trove is found it belongs too the crown and police must be notified.
Can anyone please tell me what is classified as a treasure trove and why gold or gems are found we can keep but anything classified as a treasure trove we need to report to police and hand over to the crown?
Any help with the question will be helpful.
