Looks like Oallen is going to get a refresh :lol:

Look at the rise at the water gauge just above the bridge today - this water has come down the Mongarlowe river.

I wont be driving to Tuena tomorrow the back way!!!

Cheers

Barry, all of that water would of come from that storm front overnight hanging over Ulladulla and the mountains behind.
Would be interesting to know how much rain fell in that region, the BoM some was showing a lot of yellow and blue, with the odd red last night.
Is there any rise at Tuena?

yep I talked with the shop today and they have had 30mils and the creek is up a bit

Just started hitting up a small creek and getting some super chunky bits, the Mackirk really does grab it all.

Hubba hubba, I am hanging to get back to Adelong, always good colour there. Are you guys above the town or below, I work above and dont get any mercury but have gotten a heap from in town. Cheers for the report

Hi Paydirt, Always above town. We have private property access, I don't know why people think Adelong is all cleaned out? We always seem to get good colours..

Cheers Waz

Yep it's definitely got enough gold to keep my fever running high... Plenty of parts that people don't venture into too and that's where the good stuff is. We've found plenty above the old diggings and below the town but it's becoming long in the tooth now so a flood would be very welcome soon.

Walbanker ready for cleanout yesterday.

 

[Wally69]

Nice golden smile looking back at you there. Would have been a great sight to see.

Makes you wonder if a 1' long walbanker would do the trick, the efficiency is amazing with the gold trapped at the start of the expanded mesh zone.

How did the rest of the clean out go?

How did the rest of the clean out go?

Still in a sucker bottle with black sand clean tomorrow 2 nice bits but 1/2 gram or so each

We went to Ararat for two days panning.
On the second day we found a really nice spot and this is what came up!

Our best Pan.

We are really happy with that.

You're winning

keep doing it and experiment with digging at different strata levels and locations , you might average improved results even bigger than that.

doesnt hurt to sit and look around you sometimes , try to work out what else is there that other people might have missed
