Gippsland Gold

[golddiggerart]

Went for a dig Saturday 23rd to a creek where I found my nugget and started the day test panning for no results then decided to hit a spot I had planned to hit which didn't have good results at the end of the day but I had to see for myself anyway and a little hard work never hurt anyone.



Hope you all enjoy the video although I need some more editing skills which is a work in progress.

Life is an adventure and so is prospecting for Gold.


Cheers Arthur aka GoldDiggerart.

Thanks for the Vid Arthur and yes it looks a nice spot

I would make a sucker and get to the bottom of those bars for more fines

have you looked along that creek area up near the bend yet

it also looks like a good spot and there should be more pockets and traps up that way 

regards Harry

Thanks Harry, yeah mate I did use my sucker in the bottom of those bars and on the bend was full of tailing's from a bloke known by a friend, it had been hammered right down to Bed rock, apparently he did really well there.
Needs a really good flood to replenish and clear away alot of the light material.

One thing I forgot to mention is the RUBBISH I collected while there, VB cans, Beer bottles honestly right in the car park area, will never understand why they can't or won't take out what they bring in.

Do the right thing guys and gals.

Looks like a beautiful area to have a dig. Man you moved some rocks.
Nice picker, hope there are a few more waiting for you.

Thanks for putting that together Art. Interesting and enjoyable video and such a nice spot. Very informative to hear where you found it and where it was not, even with promising signs like the cons in the hole.
Hope to see more of your adventures.

Yeah I dive head first into everything, have learned to just dig holes among the rocks so a to not wear myself down. 

Lots more rocks I want to move but going to need a pulley system, I can lift upwards of 50 - 60 kilos but some of the rocks are 100kgs+.

It's a beautiful part of the world.
