Pretty sure most of the mines and mineral occurrences etc on GeoVic are based upon historic reporting to the mines department... It wouldn't include old newspaper reports or anything like that (TROVE is where to go for that as casper said). The GT (or at least the expanded GT -...

The replies have been pretty funny here :lol: , but my only advice, apart from doing the research, is to be patient... I'm still yet to find my first bit of gold while prospecting 8.( (hundreds of thousands of ounces as an exploration geologist mind you!) I'm in Bendigo but always keen to...

This is the sort of collaboration we like to see!

The what where?

One for the more geologically inclined.... Some very interesting distributions of gold around the Tarnagulla Granodiorite (G351). Big nugget country, some great regional structures, nice!

I think interest rates are going up and economies are struggling. Good for gold prices. Gold stocks, on the other hand, are subject to market sentiment which in recent times is decoupled from intrinsic value more and more. So it's much riskier. That said, a really good discovery can make a...

Cheers for the replies. I think the 800 will keep me happy given I kinda go out there "to be out there", not as a determined search for gold. That may change again... I wasn't enjoying my QED before.... Maybe one day I'll take out the mortgage on a Minelab PI

So, despite having already dabbled in PI machines, I have come back to being interested in detecting but this time I have bought a Nox 800 and a 6-inch coil. WHY? Because I am more of an investigator, I like scratching around and looking in places I find interesting. I don't get out every week...

Nice... might see you out there!

Hi, re-introducing myself after a 6-month or so hiatus... I've moved to Bendigo... not as "underemployed" as I used to be... have downgraded equipment wise to a more exploratory rig. Keen to meet up some time with fellow Bendigo region prospectors! :D

Probably not ok. As a general rule its ok in state forests unless specifically banned. You need a Miner's Right to prospect anywhere. The main thing is is that it is quite difficult to work out where is allowed and where isn't, very place-specific. So, once you find a spot you're interested...

I think I scared myself off with the size of the hangover!

Just when I thought I was out, they (gold) dragged me back in... Have moved to Bendigo focusing my eye on the Tarnagulla area b/c I could get out there after work potentially. Any one else in the area?

As a pl3 owner I've found the recent stoush b/W various so called experts rather disturbing. I've not found gold with mine but I suspect it really is because I've not gone over gold. But I hate this confidence-destruction going on. The QED I'm sure is not as good as a Zed or a 6000, or even...

Honestly, job applications and resume writing are a strange beast. I've helped people with both before but unless the person actually gets the job, it's hard to feel satisfied that you've done a good job. As for submissions, I've done these too. Most people have no idea how much work is needed...
