Hi all,
Carrying out some research in preparation for a trip to Vic later this year and came across the Puzzle Flat lead. I can't seem to find much historical information on it and was hoping someone could tell me a bit about it. ie whether it's worthwhile detecting the ground there or not (I potentially have access to a bit iof ground there).
From what I can see on Geovic it may be that the ground is too deep for detecting.
Also in regard to Geovic, can you also advise what is referred to as, for example Archdale BR?

Thanks
bicter

try trove bicter, some interesting articles about finds and at what depths.[search puzzle flat or puzzle flat lead ]
Its easier to read the actual newspaper article rather than the predicted txt sometimes.

Ain't that the truth! I guess they utilise a scanner and Optical Character Recognition software, but the results from old, faded newsprint text are hit and miss at best.

MD, Apologies for not replying earlier, have been beach detecting on GC Smile'
I'd checked out Trove without much info pointing to it being a good area for detecting and was chasing feedback from locals in the area that may have detected there previously

No worries bicter, occasionally trove will reveal a hidden gem, good luck at puzzle flat.
