    At least your finding gold, was just down at 'Inkerman's' for a day, in amongst the diggings with my 5000 and 15in DD coil, what i thought was virgin ground , got this fairly weak but repeatable sound, at a depth of between 27-30 inches out came what looked like a tip off an old pick, 2in long by 1inch wide, damn i was 95% sure i was on to a 4ouncer, bugger, that's the 3rd time i've dug a close to or deeper than 3ft hole for junk, and they say that this game doesn't involve luck, it bloody well does for some, when they are digging up gold every time they go out, i would say they have some kind of luck or force on their side hey?

      @beergold Thanks for the comment mate. I know the feeling. I have had plenty of days walking around finding nothing but bullets and rust. Got lucky on this day. I try to enjoy the process and not worry too much about the outcome. There are lots of interesting things to see out there. The gold is a bonus.
      I was getting a little excited on that monster target, but as you say, most turn into junk.
      Good luck out there mate. Hope your luck turns around!

    Good nugget mate.
    Did you take note of how the dirt was orange with gravel where the nugget came out of, where as the other targets were more like garden soil ?
    Its not a hard and fast rule, but 80% of the time its correct.

      @adzoutnabout8666 Thanks mate! I thought a similar thing, but the other 2 nuggets in that area have been in loose loamy soil. It all seems quite waterwarn. I have been told that gold doesn't necessarily have to be too far from the source to become waterwarn. I wonder where exactly its coming from.... Thanks for following along mate.

      @@BendigoGoldProspecting its an elluvial process.
      The gold gets tumbled in the gravel as the ground moves.
      Water plays very little role in smoothing those nuggets.
      The ground moves at less than 1 cm per year, and generally its the upper float that moves over the harder clay layers.
