Gold at Thornton & nearby
Hi Dave,
as promised, here is the info:
a fair bit of gold found in this district, mostly alluvial in the creeks and rivers but some gully workings here and there too...
Namely, the Delatite river, Snobs ck, Dry ck, Acheron (swamp ck) and a sh*tload of other locations (many of them very rich) towards Alexandra and Yea. Many reefs were later discovered that had very payable returns too. So, to cut a long story short.....what you saw was right, it is gold country!!! I'll show you the names and locales when I see you. Cheers, Dwt
