Never think its trash , I thought it was found only 6 inches down in the side of an old test hole. I'm sure others have gone over it before as there was recent diggings very close. Luck yea plenty of that. https://www.prospectingaustralia.com/forum/img/member-images/5449/1485070579_image.jpg

Yeah some of the small ones haven't gone far as there's a small reef pretty close. The boggy was found only about 30 meters from the smaller ones and doesn't look like it came from the same place so I'm a bit confused which is not surprising.jwal said:Some nice rough pieces there Bjay - they don't look like they travelled very far from the source. (unlike mine above that look like they have been around the world a few times )
And big win on that 50gm.....I often wonder some times if I think something is junk cos the sdc yells so loud...oh boy - checking every bit of junk will take longer, but seems to have paid off - well done..
My kids would have been embarrassed if they seen what I did. Young bloke was there this morning when I got the little bits but unfortunately missed out this arvo on dads embarrassing behavior.SC75 said:Congrats Bjay 8) I bet you done a few fist pumps when you found it. Well done.

I'm so happy for you.
We all dream of the day of cracking 1 ounce, and you nearly cracked two.
Well done mate!
Fantastic.
Mate I read about your football and would have been a great surprise to crush all that gold out of such a large piece.vstrom said:Yeeha well done Bjay happy to see you join the oz club glad to see these things happen to people I know your killing it mate keep it up
With the 5000 but sdc would have easily screamed on it . I reackon even an aldi would have got it . No skill involved just pure luck.LORD said:Congrats Bjay, thats Karma for helping me out with the sadie coil
