Hello all, well after jumping on the back of someone else's post from the far north in CAIRNS , i'll give introducing myself another try.
I am a newbie to the forum and to gold fever, and have it bad. I'm located in the south west sydney region and enjoy the great outdoors, I am recently a retireree without the pension card , getting one will be like gold in itself, I have a few good books like the gold atlas and the glint of gold, a metal detector , a creswell bucket thingo , a high banker, a couple of plastic pans and a turbo pan with no idea how its used?? and hopes of finding some gold one day. Spent last Sunday trying my luck for the first time with the detector and struck it rich on the 4th target, , a 4xxxx gold bottle top in the edge of the river bank, perhaps thats an omen from the ppl up north, thats going up on my wall of finds. Gold prospecting is a interesting topic and there are many ideas out there on which is the better product to use , some with an explanation, like the man call Wal from canberra, his theories make sense and I assume come from trial and error and experience . My regards to all members, far and near.
