[QUOTE="loamer, post: 20992, member: 981"] My pleasure Nugget. I sometimes take it for granted that we all know what we are looking for and at. I also know that in these financially hard times for people, the cost of buying books and guides is out of the question. These little bits and pieces may save some new starters time and money. I am still learning and for example I know very little about how our panning and sluicing colleagues operate. As I stated in my neewbie introduction, this is a very friendly and informative forum and I have learnt a lot about different things (love the fossil posts) and I am happy to pass on anything I can. I detect with three other old and grumpy blokes and we often see and run into people (generally at the pubs around the Golden Triangle) who have little or no training in how to read the ground or what to look for. We are always happy to help. I do get a bit peeved when told that we keep our secret spots to ourselves because that's where all the gold is. As I always say - if that's where all the gold is, I would have dug it out by now. What we have are areas we know there is deeper gold but technology hasn't caught up with it yet. [/QUOTE]
