So I was here a couple of years back and I mentioned that I come across it.
and I need somebody with some type of experience to partner up with me in making a claim.
I have found the spot.
whether there is gold there or not I have found the spot that Harold Lassiter was talking about.
Id put my life on it.
I have some proof.
I'm going to keep that to myself for a second because I need advice.
So yeah any advice input tips super helpful it's on it Aboriginal land.
I don't want to fluff up because of over excitement.
 
Havent heard any updates from ol mate Bingo who posted in 2020 about the reef being located. Its any ones guess if its real or not though with the technology available these days its more likey to be located.

I find it surprising that no one else has tripped over it.
multiple expeditions literally walked within 25 kilometers of it multiple times and went straight past it.
I even have satellite images of the what I believe is the campsite made by Harding and lassiter.
Also managed to tie in all of the described landmarks as well as the measurements all perfectly match up.

I was that bingo.
turns out I have signed in through two different methods and created two different accounts.
so they have to fix it for me but yeah that was me.
I still hold firm I just can't get myself out there and other complications have arose in the meantime.
I think the reason why the other companies bigger companies aren't into this one is because there has been other gold that they know where it is so they're just been going for that be easier and cheaper than searching for a fabled gold.
The words mythical and investment don't usually go together too well with these big businessmen
 
If there is even a whiff of information about its location mining companies over the last few decades would have been looking for it, no doubt. There were likely more expeditions than we think. Who says the mining companies have to tell the public that they are looking for the reef? Im eager to see if you get the results you expect
 
If it is on Aboriginal land that opens another can of worms in itself, permissions, why you want to be there and, do the owners of the land 'get a cut' lots of things to consider, no doubt a representative of theirs would want to be with you and greed figures high, lots to consider, I wish you the best though.

Took me 3 months going through the channels to gain permission.
We had to abort the mission due to heaviest rain since Lasseter was out there. Two weeks after driving thousand kms we gave up.

In that time we did not meet one local, only their abandoned government funded settlements.
Good luck.

3 months stuff about sounds about right, was there any third degree about 'why' you wanted to go there?

thank you for telling me.
I was wondering how often I might see somebody out there I was thinking not much.
but you reckon not at all.
that's going to make things different.

Well what was hoping to do was get boots on the ground first find the necessary evidence I need. (Photos. Samples. Specimens.)
Without going through all the bs.
I found out that I'm allowed to travel down any Main Road without a permit.
provided I don't enter into any Aboriginal territories or camp on the side of the road. or fish etc.
but I also don't need permission to visit a site in the desert which might be in the overall extended Aboriginal Territory but not in the direct community Territory.
meaning I may be able to get out there without any permissions provided I don't enter any Aboriginal communities and I camp in the middle of the road.😂

No third degree. The various mobs only met up every month or so to discuss and maybe approve applications like this. We did not have to show our approved applications to anyone, probably because there was no one out there.
 
Common sense needs to prevail, this is our country, many of us are 2nd, 3rd, 4th generation. The desert out there is vacant crown land, stay away from communities if not invited just as we don't want others invading our home but I believe we all have a right to freely traverse this great wide expanse of land. Be sure to take all your rubbish out, do not contaminate waterholes and do not destroy fauna and flora and I don't think you should take a rifle.

Not as over the top as I thought it would be, beeflute might get a good run at it.
