Hey all,
The fam and I are just learning, but have really been enjoying fossicking in the local area, finding agates and jasper and such for the tumbler, and now we're looking forward to moving into gems and gold...
We haven't got far yet but are considering maybe trying out Big Badja River next...
Any and all local tips appreciated!
Also waiting on lockdown end to join the Canberra lapidary club (unless there are any closer/fossicking groups that I may have missed searching for online?)
Anyway, loving the threads on this site, looking forward to catching up with some of the newer info, hearing from more experienced folks and learning more!
