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

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.

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 Q22

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
