Steveo1's last day in Tibooburra. Netted another 32:

If you didn't know better you might think it had snowed or hailed up there:

Great trip mate! Thanks for the photos & updates. You & Mrs Steveo1 have a safe trip home tomorrow!

Steve0, will you arriving by private helicopter or Armoured Ute.

 

[Heatho]

Farout, Steveo that's an awesome result, you are a Gold hunting machine mate, well done.

 

[steveo1]

Thanks fellas when we get home I clean the gold up and take some photos on the scales and get matt to put them on. Just over 250 I think.

 

[kawman]

I think you have the record for the biggest haul ever on this webb site.. amaising.. well done.

 

[steveo1]

Yep thanks. But thay are only small

Gday Stevo

Brilliant stuff mate , the posts of your finds have done the trick and made my mind up for a Tib trip in about 3 weeks now. Your scoop technique must be near perfect after that amount of practice Can you give me an indication of the leadshot / gold ratio ?

Well done again

Cheers

 

[steveo1]

All depends on where you go. 1 gold 2 leadshot not much rubbish

 

[user 4485]

A bit better than the normal digs then Steveo :lol: 50 lead shot 1 gold.

A 2 to 1 ratio would be great, I dream of finding a spot like that. Anyway might hit the 50 to 1 spot next week, I don't care if I only get pellets, been so long since a Gold hunt while crook, just need to fire up the SDC and get into it.

I feel a bit "inadequate" after steveo1's efforts but here tis anyway. SDC magic!

Whirlwind trip to Central West and about 3 hrs work due to wife n dogs in tow.

Smallest did not even register on the scales! I swear that they are getting smaller. 2 on the right of the 5c broke off the specimans when cleaning on site.

2 specimans that have been crushed, one had 0.5gms and the other has crystalline gold crystals in it. I am excited about that find and will get some pics after its cleaned up.

Well done. Did you see that someone else has been doing well in the Talbot area over Easter.

Is this private property or State Forest?
