Hi Guys

this is my first post. i have just signed up I would like to thank you all for the information that is shared and will be sure to let you know if i come across some of the auferrous metal. I only have a pan at the moment but am thinking of making a dredge. Any ideas regarding submersible vs surface sluice? I am up in South East Queensland but am willing to travel and would love to come along on one of your weekends some time in the future.

happy hunting,

Rob

Hi Ridgydidge,
First of all welcome to the group. If you have any questions don't hesitate to ask no matter how silly you may think the question is.

In regards to using a dredge I would suggest that you check with the mining and other related departments in your area as to the legallity of using a dredge as they are a definate no no in almost all of Australia. Where they are legal its almost impossible to get a licence to use it.

Maybe a highbanker and a small pump might be the best option but again check if it's legal in your area.
