The pickings are slim

It might be a whole lot more elusive to find, but its still out there awaiting for someone to swing over it.
5 small bits, over two 4hr afternoon stints with the GPZ 7000, for just over 2 grams of gold in weight.



Cheers Kon

Nice going there Kon. I know it's out there but I think it keeps moving away from me lately. Everyone says how the Whipstick is completely thrashed but I keep finding lots of shotty pellets and other rubbish down deep, so there still has to be gold mixed in with it.

Great score Kon, yep very much the same point I was trying to make, need to be a seasoned prospector these days, it really does equate to hours spent on the ground, good luck squeezing a few more hunts In before the heat turns.
Cheers GG

That'll pay for the Christmas whiskey, good stuff

Good effort Kon these days its a combination of experience and time,used to be luck.

A few more bits over a couple of half days detecting around the Whipstick Vic, for just over 2grams of gold.



Cheers Kon

Good one mate, have a great Christmas.

4 nice little pieces there Kon, and just over 2 grams is nice.

Regards Axtyr.

Gotta be happy with that Kon

G'day ladies/gents

Even though the times are tough out there & the pickings in way of colour maybe slim & small, the gold ain't going to come to us, but to the ones who are prepared to put in the ground time.
Next to diving, fishing & hunting, prospecting for gold out bush, has to be right up there with the best of them.
A few tiny bits of gold found over 3 separate 3hr stints.



Cheers Kon

Nice going kon, that's a good tally for these days.
With the high price of gold; 4.38 is great beer money.
You could even go boutique now

Funny you should mention that moredeep, for the young fella & i, just logged off Dan Murphy's tossing between the Dewar's or Shivas Royal Salute

Kon

There's some nice size pieces there. Well done.

I hope to be getting out as soon as the school holidays are over and it is cool enough.

Regards Axtyr.

That's a tough decision Kon, the royal salute sounds nice but for me it's always the peaty laphroiag

Great results with the 7000 Kon,there's no easy gold these days.

Not wrong there deutran. We really do have to work hard for every crumb found these days.

Cheers Kon
