Way to go Pottsy, and had a lot of fun I bet.

Last week I found 2 small bits close together so Mrs Kangaron got the rake out, and they kept coming.
Have to go back to find big brother.

So what would that little handful be worth Kanga ???

Stuff all, about 3 grams @ $50 per gram.
But when you go out every week it soon adds up.

At least it keeps you in beer money and gives you some exercise  ;D ;D 
Where and how do you cash the gold in ? Do you need  to register as a prospector ?

Victoria have a 10 year miners right for people that want to fossick about.
It's $24.20 for it. And you can get it on line.

Not sure about selling the proceeds.

There are regular Visitors from the USA to the local area who pay spot price [cash as well]
Any gold found by a holder of a miner right is tax free, so no need to inform anyone, no matter how big the sale.
Most of us don't sell, and watch the price climb.
I think it will double in five years from now.
People come from all over the world to detect in the Dunolly, Moliagul, Kingower area, which has historically produced more large gold nuggets
than anywhere else in the world.
In the last 6 weeks we have seen a 100oz, 90oz and a 30oz make an appearance.
Most good finds are sold privately and do not hit the press.

Dig out those detectors, but only if your an overseas company...


Victoria is primed for a new gold rush as the state government throws open 1500 square kilometres of land for international companies to probe for the precious metal.

Authorities estimate there is still $150 billion worth of gold in the ground with only half the gold across Victoria thought to have been discovered.

Great Grandfather had a mine near Menzies back at start of last century. Found this article while researching family history.  It was the richest mine in the area.
