hey everyone
I’m new to fossicking and slowly learning
I own a property that on mine view is a area of dacitic crystal tuff, there is a lot of bed rock sticking out the ground, towards the top of the hill there is a area 10mx20m just scattered with quartz and some decent size quartz sticking out of the ground, a lot of it is rusty orange and pieces that look like snow quartz, thinking about having a scrap around, any opinions or info is very appreciated

Have a read of this old post which mentions gold found in dacite porphyry associated with volcanic activity..... interesting.

Seeing there is well worn quartz there, no harm in running a good gold detector over the area..... you never know.
I’m off work for a bit so got some spare time, they find gold, rubys, garnets all sorts of stuff around this area, can’t hurt to have alittle investigate
