    Mouse Plague Camp Solutions

    Hey everyone, I'm heading off for a three week trip out to North West NSW and South East QLD in August, where I'll be rolling out my swag each night. With the mouse plague in mind, and with me preferring not to wake up with a swag full of holes and squeaking bastards, I thought I'd put the...

    Ebor fossicking

    Just make sure you're not within the boundaries of any NP land up there! There's a few spots I've been meaning to check out up that way too so I'm pretty keen to hear how you go! Cheers Dan

    Tumbarumba Gemfields

    Hey guys, Went down to Paddy's River Flats for a quick hour and a half look on my way through Saturday afternoon. Found a heap of what I think are bits of clear quartz/smoke quartz, some zircon, lots of spinels and a few small bits of sapphire. Should be noted that I planned on going up to...

    Grabben Gullen

    Thought I'd post what I managed to pull out while I was down there. 8 bits of sapphire (the two decent sizes both bombs) 10 small bits of something olive coloured, a heap of clear quartz chunks (a couple of possible zircons i have to check) and some good sized spinels. Will definitely be back...

    Hey all, I've been down at GG for a day and a half with only a few zircons and 4 small sapphires to show for it. I'm heading home tomorrow afternoon but am planning to spend my day tomorrow in the creek again before I shoot off. Does anyone have any sly tips they might be able to offer me? I...

    Sapphire Bend, Oberon NSW

    Hey Kotolos, That's awesome! I'm actually heading down there today til Friday, so that's filled me with some hope! It'll be my second crack down there, last time only had 2 hours and had very little success, so I'm hoping this time I have better luck! Any tips or anything Kotolos would be...

    Sapphire Bend, Oberon NSW

    I didn't have a good look up sapphire bend road, but the holes at the public area were all full, and every dip in the ground by the side of the road was a puddle so I'd say they'd be much the same

    Sapphire Bend, Oberon NSW

    First time I've heard of blue hill, and now after a quick google I'm keen as to get out there!! To answer your question though I can almost guarantee it's a boggy mess. I went for a drive through Vulcan sf while I was there on Tuesday arvo and everything was soaked and full of water. The small...

    Also, Kotolos, very keen to hear how you go down at GG!! I've only been there a couple of times but am very keen to get back down there soon after all this water clears.

    Sapphire Bend, Oberon NSW

    I'm out here for work so popped into Sapphire Bend this arvo for a look, every hole is full of water. The double edged sword of it is that you can't see what you're doing but the digging is a million times easier with soaked ground!

    The Hustings - NSW

    Cheers Jaros! Have been sapphire fossicking for a couple of years now but am started to do short trips more regularly, and am also starting to look at branching out into other minerals etc. Tell you what there's no limit to the possibilities!! What a great way to spend time in the bush too!
