Hi Sand Surfer. I think the clear one is just a bit of Quartz crystal, the black one is tourmaline crystal. Plenty of little bits of Garnet and Zircon available in reedy crk. Also the occasional Pale blue sapphire (I have found about half a dozen in 20 odd yrs)
The weigh in for the gold was a bit over half a gram, so beer and fuel money, makes a break even day (just).

Thanks jethro,when i come down next year i was planning on rattling the pans on reedy creek, never knew you get the odd gem there :beer:

Just went out and grabbed some more ground from 4 different spots in the same gully. Brought it home so I can un-silt it and get a more accurate idea of what's there..

Very enjoyable day and a half in one of my favourite spots. 5-6 hours panning yesterday and another 3 today

Ok, I'll bite. How much are you allowed to take home in NSW as I take it you are in Bathurst? Have you got your own lease?

How much can I take?
Fossicking is limited to taking no more than the amounts prescribed in the Mining Regulation 2009
during any single period of 48 hours. This includes 10 kg of mineral-bearing material, 5 kg of minerals
(other than gold or gemstones), 50 grams of gold (or 5 nuggets of 10 grams or greater) or 100 grams
of gemstones. Gemstones refer to Group 6 and Group 7 minerals listed in Schedule 2 of the Mining
Regulation 2010 and include diamond, sapphire, ruby, corundum and opal.

Cheers

Doug

Mate 5-6 hours panning or digging ?

I would be working like a female dog on heat if that was panning.

Digging and panning - left the other toys like the river sluice at home

20 meters down the gully the recent rain created a small deposit of flood eluvials so I took 40 litres un-classified and un-silted it reducing down to 20litres..

Only a few fly 5hits and some other metal..

Did a thorough visual inspection on my tailings..
