Hi Nightjay I live in Boulder (kalgoorlie boulder) I decect when I can usually 2 times a month on the weekends, depending on the weather I will camp with my mate and enjoy an ale or 2 but if its hot I can leave town early and be somewere I can swing a coil from 1/2 hr to 1 1/2 hr's drive away.

I believe that the bush is great and if your not finding anything go for a drive and an explore,sometime it feels that all I,m doing is exploring.

I've been decting about 7 years on and off started witha 2100- good machine but a pain gound balancing it all the time, next the 2200 and then the 3000. Both the 2200 and the 3000 loved the 14DD. Could never get 2 to balance in on the 2100 with this coil though. I have just upgraded to a 4500 and now I,m starting to get famlilar with it. Since getting it in late November I have found about 1oo nuggets for a hungred grams. Most of the gold has been about 0.1gms but while decting these have picked up the odd 2-5 gramer. Biggest bit is a 1/2o/z spec.

Over the years I have found gold at Jubilee ,Kalpni ,Camellia, Bulong, Gindelbie ,Whiteheads find ,Kanowna, Yindi ,Edjudina ,Linden ,Barrambie - I think, Cobra ,Binti Binti ,Near Mt McKley ,Broadarrow and a few others. No patchs just the dregs that others have left behind. I have found a few virgin locations but no patchs a couple of good runs here and there. I always work pending ground and if a company will give me permission I work that as well.

,If all you guys are going to meet up near Kal sometime this year I might drop in and say hello have a beer or 2 and we,ll see who can tell the tallest tale.

until the next post.

Captain.
