    Specific Gravity test help - Gold and quartz

    Sure, but I have rarely seen a specimen in 'pure QTZ". Nuggets and species always contain impurites....that is why we loose around 7-15% in the furnace. If you want to know the gold content then the only reliable...repeatable method is to bash it up...in my opinion. Value of a specie is a...

    Pegging A lease in W.A

    you can peg a lease but if the exploration lease has been done correctly then yours will fail. Check the paperwork...particularly if it's been done by an individual and make sure there is no mistakes. Assuming there wont be any...wait till it goes live...meet with the tenement holder and see if...

    DPF PROBLEMS

    Nothing but problems with DPF....a 'local' guy (in WA) removes for around 500 bucks (quotes around 12k to replace) and never had a problem since. In the bush, DPF is dangerous!

    Pegging A lease in W.A

    I had a look at some of your video....I assume you want to push that gully? From the pics I saw there is nothing there that would encourage me to mobilze machinary. Go to where you think the deepest section is and dig a hole...see what depth you can reach...if it's less than a couple of feet...

    Pegging A lease in W.A

    The permits are easy....depending on a few different things!...It will come down to the area and it's vegetation and the native title claimant group status over the area if there is one.

    Extension of Lease (WA)

    Granting of extension is mostly approved but not always. They may send you a request for further info and in the very worst scenario you will get a notification letter that the extension has been refused and the tenement will die in 30 days. This will give you enough time to 'take action'...if...

    Pegging A lease in W.A

    The application for a lease is simple enough....finding the ground that is worth pegging is the art. You do not need management agents or peggers to do the work....do it yourself and if you stuff it up then at least you will get an education. Pegging an SPL is only the first step and the...

    it's an easy one.....smelt it.....you may need to learn some new skills...but that aint such a bad thing...blowing off the qtz etc in the furnace is the easiest way to go.
