I've got a few provocative questions about this totally unnecessary proposal which I totally oppose: Why on earth would any prospector think it is a good idea to allow international bureaucrats in Paris tell them where they can go and prospect in the Golden Triangle? there are already too many...

I’m interested in getting in touch with a couple of prospecting groups that are set up to attract ex ADF veterans as members. Forum names or Facebook groups would be enough. I did an online search but without success. PM me please! Thanks.

I just had Minelab replace printed control board for similar issue. No charge. I also had my control box and battery fully replaced, and the standard coil. Moral of the story is if it’s not right talk to Minelab. With the price of these detectors they have an obligation to support their...

I’m looking for some new boots and a change from Redbacks after 4 pairs. Came across Diadora craze wide for my wide foot. Composite toe but ykk metal zip tag on the side. Very comfortable, lace up, zip on side. Has anybody used these with the 6000. How problematic would that metal be?

The correct takeaway from this story is that there is still some good chunks out there for the active and the lucky. Armchair prospectors won't find it no matter how much they blather on the forums! All I can say is well-done to the prospector and well-done to Lucky Strike for helping to raise...

Wow there is a lot of people down on these guys. So easy to judge that they should have found their own way out (or shoulda carried maps and compass etc etc) but we don't really know the full circumstances and there will be always ten different opinions about how they could have done it...
