Metal Detecting and 4WDing North Queensland - Part 1.

In the first instalment of a two-part adventure, we head deep into the North Queensland bush in search of old goldfields camps. Some great Chinese coins and relics come to light and we camp out under the stars before exploring more historic sites, Aboriginal Cave Art, and the incredible 'Dripping Cave' in Part 2. A big thank you to Mr George Mayer (formerly of the North Queensland Miner's Den) - for inviting us along and sharing his knowledge of this historic area of North Queensland. Happy Fossicking!

Looks like a nice "109". My mom used to drive one, a 1967 Warwickshire machine. There were a few others in my then area, SLO Calif. I even found an abandoned 109 pickup in the bush on Westside Molokai. There was a Rover dealer in Kamuela back in the 1960s. I find the cash coins everywhere here when digging. 1900 to WWII. I have seen them in California too, along with soy jugs and Tiger whiskies.

Really enjoyed seeing all your wonderful finds but the best bit was all the history up and the fact that it is untouched, awesome. Can't wait for part two.

Another great video Warren and many thanks to Mr Meyer for pointing you in the right direction. I saw one of the old hammer stampers in action a couple of months ago at the gold rush colony in Mogo NSW it had large rubber pads at the bottom of each hammer to reduce noise but still made a hell of a racket and shook the ground underfoot.

Great stuff Warren, the coins and relics are what interest me in the goldfields too. Although I wouldn't say no to a nugget. Can't wait for part 2. Cheers, Vic
