[QUOTE="bob, post: 352720, member: 628"] Hi Lesgold I have found most of my gold on mullock heaps. I treat them just like other finds in that it is okay to dig into the heap as long as the work is repaired and filled in. If you were to rake down a heap I think it is reasonable to assume that you need to put the dirt back and not damage plants etc. in the process. I have found bits all over mullock heaps; the top, sides and base with obvious signs that others have been before me. Currently I am working one heap at a reef that has produced specimens from the surface to quite deep into the pile. Also from the top to the base. There seems to be specimens scattered every in the heap. Also there is an old detector hole on the opposite side of the very heap that I am working. If you go to the detector section of the forum and open up minelab, then Eureka Gold by Au Fever I have written a bit about my finds. Page 8 to 10 covers my finds on mullock heaps. I am no expert but you may find it interesting. The main information on mullock heap finds starts around 6th of Jan about half way down page 8. Good luck in your search. Cheers Bob. [/QUOTE]
