Hi All,

I just joined up after discovering this forum today via the NAPFA web site.

My wife and I enjoy fossicking, mainly for opal, but I want to branch out and chase gold too.

I have an Equinox 800, which I haven't really used very much yet.

Last year we went out to Tibooburra and stayed on Mt Stuart for 5 nights, the camping was excellent but i didn't find any gold. I did learn a lot from others out there though.

We are going back in late April for another go. When I retire (soon) I plan to spend a bit of time on old goldfields.

Cheers,
Rob

Hi and welcome to the Forum.

Suggest you get a 6" coil for the Nox and a 2300 for the wife and you/she will definitely find gold, if you put the time in.

And of course Low and Slow.

Thanks for the comment, a 2300 would be nice.

I forgot to mention - I bought a 6" coil on advice from people I met in the field.

Cheers.

welcome to the forum rob,good luck with the hunt for the yellow stuff.
Hope to see some pics from your future trips,all the best.

cheers   moredeep

Welcome to the forum I started out as a treasure hunter when I was five then went on to be a gold prospector when I was twelve then got into gemstones about 15 years ago
You might also think about prospecting rivers and creeks other than old tailing piles that's where I found my most gold
