Hey all ,
Been looking around the old mines at Yalwal ,trying to work out what the old timers were searching for ,and in the mines I have been following the quartz veins and and digging out a few pieces , only interested if I'm on the right track ,if I crush and pan I think I should see colour , as the gold was from 0.2 to 3 oz per tonne of ore from the various mines around Yalwal , lots of quarry mines ,adit tunnel drives ,shafts ,
Lots of gullys running off the open quarrys ,and tailings piles would be worth a pan or swing a detector over .
I've got a few pieces .trying to post a pic
