8 Days 1 Nugget

It can be a long time between gold when working open ground so this 10.2g Specie came as a nice surprise.

Very nice mate, great colours.

Very nice great piece

Top looking gold specimen, well done to you Steve.

Cheers Kon.

That's 8 days of doing something fun with a bonus nuggie

cheers moredeep

Very nice specie there Steve. Congrats and hope you find many more in that area. Thanks for sharing your nice find.

Cheers.

At least the one you found was decent 10 grams Specci - well done

Its tough going all round, especially detecting for gold over thrashed crown land these days Aussierat. Like Steve says, it can & usually is, a long time between drinks.

Cheers Kon.

I am in WA and we have 40E permits to get on Exploration leases, what is the go in VIC?

No story Aussierat, just a whole lot scarcer these days to find gold on crown land in Vic. Where you are is a lot more remote. Not to say that most well known gold producing areas in WA aren't thrashed, just so much more remote gold bearing localities to explore.
My apologies Deutran, I think I'v both strayed from the main topic & hijacked your thread. That's enough out of me

Cheers Kon.

Well done Steve
Looks like a good 9+ grams of the good stuff in that one.
Beats a couple of sub grammers per day
Now to find his family

The gold to quartz ratio definitely a bonus..lots of area between targets in open ground,many congrats.
