Well done guys, thanks for taking the time to do the vid. Just wondering why you couldn't get to the spots you wanted to? Lack of map details, poor tracks, too wet, got lost lol...?

Maybe it was a good omen, you ended up finding gold in a place you weren't planning on. Anyway good luck, persistance pays off...

Nice pics Stoppsy. Hey, how do you get your nuggets so clean looking as I have noticed in all of your pics over the last few weeks just how clean and tidy they look.

hi xenon, just for a quick clean i just have a little getainer with a lid, put a small amount off washing powder and a little worm water, and shake the hell out off it for a few seconds, then i dry them off and they are pretty clean. the other way is using hydrochloric acid straight into a glass jar with no water and leave it in over night. if doing it this way do it in the shed with window or a door open....

GH there has been a lot off gold found this weekend mate, nothing like your find tho that's just a find off a life time...
cheers

I see you have also progressed from the 20c piece to the 5c piece to make them look bigger, see what experience does..

i wish mate that i had a 5000, the 4000 is a great detector once you get your head around it... just stick at it mate you'll hit it soon i have gone a month with out finding anything, it just takes time and listen for the little signels and if your not sure check it out.
cheers
