Gold slowly adding up



 just the 11 nuggets for the week but got a nice 3 gramer,

 total nuggets off this patch, 101 for 41.6 grams

Hi everyone, i worked hard all week trying to get to 100 nuggets off this patch and i just got there, i ended up with 101 nuggets for a total weight of 41.6 grams or 1 ounce 10.5 grams, the weather has been cloudy with some showers and its gettin pretty darn cold at night as well as windy coldish days. Im staying in laveton for a few nights then on saterday im heading nth about 120ks to a new area, im going with some profesional prospectors who run tours for people and have a number of quad bikes and they have a group from a metal detecting club from NSW [34 people] coming over and have asked me if id like to go with them and help out looking after the group, im not getting paid but it will be a great experience watching how the pros go about it and the area that we re going is very remote but rich in gold so ill be giving the GPS a workout as i will be back there by myself very soon after. the gold [right] is my total from WA, 206 nuggets weighing 105 grams or 3 ounces 12 grams, cheers Stu,
ps, still lookin for that big one.

  1. Well done Stu. That jar is all most full, you'll have to send it over to me for safe keeping. (I'll keep it safe for you son). Sounds like a good trip with the pro's, you are sure to learn some tips from them.
