She'll be giving for a while GR, that's great to see  (love seeing pictures and people getting good results) - woke up this morning and no running water, went outside and got blinded by white frost, it was -7.9....  so it would have been cold yesterday. I'm getting a gold fix this Saturday hopefully - the fever just doesn't go away. |

Nice lot of gold there, GR
I need a fix soon myself, just gotta sort a few things out, also this weekend going down the coast to see James Reyne from the great Aussie band "Australian Crawl", they are playing at the Redland bay club on Sat night.
Hope you get that little spot kept as a bit of a secret, she might just keep on giving.
Cheers
Brad.....

GR that's zircon, you'll most likely get sapphires there as well awsome... any black spinel? Gold looks Yum, I'm now calculating the amount of dirt being processed, that picture is from 20 buckets but will keep away from clay next time I think. I can confirm I had no gold in my safety catch pan/bucket so its configuration is set no more tuning. I found my flat hose fittings so the rigid hose stays on the farm  Chris plenty left about mate, just need to be there to dig. Now that you booked the shed - did you want me to book the dancing girls lol..  |
