Hi Jim & Robyn, Welcome to the forum where you will find we're a pretty laid back lot & you will find a lot of info on prospecting & metal detecting. Feel free to post & ask questions as I'm sure the members here are only too happy to help out. Looking forward to hear of your adventures & finds. BTW Gippsland used to be my old stamping ground (Heyfield) in my younger days. |

Hi Jim & Robyn. Am also an old Gippslander although many years in NSW now. Where abouts are you? As a young bloke I lived and spent a lot of time working in the E Gipps. bush which gave me my first interests in gold. I am sure there is plenty of gold left down there, its a matter of snagging onto it. All the best with your WA trip this year, hope you have Joined APLA? Regards. Michael |
