Hello from a newbie...

[SaraMc]

Hi all,
My name is Sara. I've recently moved to gold country, Cobar NSW. I've been looking for new hobbies to fill my spare time and have a good interest in starting gold prospecting. I would not even know where to start. I have no equipment, but I'm excited to watch, listen and learn.. then hopefully get out in the field soon!. If anyone has any information regarding prospecting in Cobar or just in general I would love to hear from you
Thank you!

Hi Sara, welcome. To get the info look at our home page under General and also Gold Prospecting, tons of info and Mr.Google should be able to tell you about Cobar and surrounds.

Most of Cobars gold was microscopic and was proccessed by big companies,, you need to look for areas of smaller mines which found larger surface gold. Try research Dapville.

G'day Sara,
Welcome to the forum. Look for some outings you can attend. The members will welcome you and you'll get a first hand intro into the different approaches, panning, detecting, etc. Good luck and may you find the yellow in abundance!

Cheers,
