[QUOTE="TomStatic97, post: 668625, member: 24595"] After going through the banned creeks and streams list online, it seems like there are more places you're not allowed to prospect than you are. What is the reasoning for a place to be prohibited? Geovic shows a pretty interesting area just in Hepburn, [ATTACH type="full"]9889[/ATTACH] However upon looking at the list, "Spring Creek" is prohibited! Dang! But an offshoot of Spring Creek, Womans Gully located just off Golden Springs Avenue and on the Dry Diggings Track, does not appear on this list. So by that example, if I were to prospect a few metres too far at that split in the gully, I'd be in trouble? Perhaps the historic lead underneath the ground is the reason? I would imagine there'd be a wildlife/flora aspect to it as well, but I don't imagine little old me with a shovel and a small gold pan will cause irreparable damage to anything. [/QUOTE]
