Need help from France : australian ferrous stones

[albert84]

hello everybody,

excuse me for my bad english. a friend of mine build a pulse induction since few years. we tested it on a french volcanic ground with a litle gold nugett and the result was good. the detection depth was a litle better than the gpx 5000. but we don't have ground as mineralised as australian ground. perhaps on australian mineralised ground the pulse induction of my friend won't work at all because the mineralisation will be to high for it. I can not know this at this time. so I would like to ask you if it's possible for a member of the forum to send me to france a little parcel (1 or 2 kg) with highly mineralised australian stones like ferrous stones?
after this first step we plan to come in western australia to make better test.
if it's possible for someone I will send him the money for the price of the shipping.

thank you very much for your answers.

Bonjour, monsieur. (Good day Mate)
I do not think that customs would allow that.

 

[albert84]

bonjour
I phoned the french customs yesterday and they told me there is no problem for a parcel with stones.

I sent some rocks to Canada no problems

so is it possible for you to help me ? if yes I can send you the money for the shipping by banq transfer.

 

[Colmaca]

I only send a copper rock clock , I'm not shore how ironstone will go in the metal detector

 

[Tathradj]

Ok, Sorry about that. It may be the other way around.

 

[Colmaca]

you should fly over and find some gold with your invention

at this time we are not sure if our detector will be able to ground balance the ferrous australian ground, it's the reason why we need sample to perhaps make adjustments. after this first step we plan to come in australia to make better test.
so if a member of this forum can send me a litle parcel with australian ground I will be very happy, you just have to tell me the price of the shipping.

Le probleme c'est que le port de l'Australie vers la France est super cher (mais pas l'inverse).

En plus, il te faut de la terre du desert rouge (Western Australia)... donc j'en ai pas ici.

La terre du massif central est deja pas mal comme test, sinon, il reste le sable mouille de la plage.

bonjour,
tu penses qu'un colis de 2 kg coterait combien ?

 

[GallicProspector]

Je viens d'aller voir le calculateur de la poste locale:

C'est moins cher que ce que je pensais en fait.

thank you for the informations. for a 2 kg parcel the shipping will cost me 46 dollars, you're right it's not very expensive. I just have now to find someone who live in western australia.

Carefull where you get it from... The post office at Alice springs get packages of sand / rocks sent back all the time . Guess they thought it was changing their lives .. And not for the better!. I'm not that superstitious . But hey, a lot of red sand goes back .

the french customs told me there will be no problem for stones, but I will phone them again to ask about sand. perhaps sand could be a problem.

English only please guys.

Haha, its a little disconcerting. Thankfully the discussion is legit.

 

[albert84]

I phoned the french customs again and it's ok for stones but it's not possible for sand.
