Hey guys, So I have been twiddling my thumbs of late, and when I really have not much to do I have a look around my local area (mt coot tha state forest) for the old gold mines from the late 1800s. I'm particularly interested in a bit of land north of the Enoggera Reserve. I was wondering if anybody has had a poke around the area, and whether it would be worth taking a drive out there and bringing home a sample to wash..
I'm guessing the general consensus would be to just get a sample and have a look , but I'm just wondering if anybody else has had any luck?
I did read the shafts the old timers were sinking were quite deep like 70 - 100 meters. but I also read that a bloke found some alluvial in a gully nearby, so I figure I could go have a look in some of the water courses?
Thoughts?
