New to Prospecting

[Madjack]

Hi,

I've never done any prospecting but have thought about starting for many years. I have a (far fetched) dream to buy a Minelab GPZ 7000 detector, quit my city job and go bush to find riches!

My dream was further reinforced when I came across a couple of grey nomads in their Winnebago up near the Tanami Gold nine NT last year. The old bloke showed me a 3kg bag of gold nuggets that he had found over the past 2 weeks of prospecting in the NT.

Now all I've got to do is get advice, oh and tell my wife that I've quit my job to become a gold prospector!

Well good luck on both counts MJ. I reckon finding your fortune may turn out less stressful (or dangerous) than telling your wife what you're up to.
Oh, by the way, welcome to PA :lol:

Welcome MJ, you'll love this hobby, 3kg of nuggets, now that's why I should be detecting. Truly I love my panning and sluicing. And now a Banjo, yet to try it but it catches gold that's for sure.
