Nothing wrong with enjoying the peace and serenity out in the bush, listening to bird calls, strange miniscule mushrooms or spotting rare galaxis fish swimming in schools. I love the ferns which have smaller ferns growing on them of seperate species and studying what made the soils and conditions they thrive in. I actually believe past mining accivity here has brought in some of the semi tropic gullies that lay here.Metamorphic said:Good luck AR.....your intentions are honourable and what we as prospectors stand for mate!
I hope they read this post and listen to you my friend.
Your now holy initiated into Meta's army of troops, that fight to protect our Flora n Fauna, with the intention of protecting our rights as responsible hobbyists, that means no harm to our wonderful natural environment!
God bless the bush, and prospectors who care!
We can work together for the good of all
I still wear my "Friend of the Leadbeater Possum" sticker on my car.
I'm trying to get across that having prospectors and clubs who respectfully clean up after themselves or spend time cleaning up someone else's mess or the forrest, we are a team / army that can be put to use while we are in groups.
Sediment issues? Prospectors could help by making sandbags by catching the sluice runoff and store them by creek edge / storage somewhere for times of flood?
I hope something can be agreed to with prospecting in the Yarra Valley..its what made these towns.
