Thanks, do you have a link to your group page?

No, as a part time hobbyist there is no tax. If it were a business I would be showing a loss after expenses such as fuel, vehicle costs etc. I do this for fun ⛏️⛏️

Yes, it’s the 12 inch nugget finder. It’s definitely lighter than the standard coil. I find that if you set up the harness correctly for the GPZ is not too heavy, for me anyway.

Wow, great find…my biggest in this area was 14g.

Thanks Sam, I will join your group. Might be heading out that way for my next trip.

There are many old workings closer to Kingower on that road but you can only prospect East of the road due to the Kooyoora State Park restrictions.

Thanks for the feedback Adrian.

Kingower is a great place to detect,just need to put the time in,wow that drive home for you & Eliza was crazy,we left Inglewood around 3 & missed the storm

How did you go at Inglewood, it’s still our favourite haunt. Must check out some of those gold boxes… Eliza has little containers everywhere, I’m sure she’s lost track of a few :)

Yes we love it there,always find something just have to put in the hours 😊

More like the fingernail of faith… one day, one day it will be our turn. ⛏️⛏️

Thanks, there were workings about 100m downhill in a deeper gully but only a few prospecting holes near where I was. If only they could design a detector that avoided lead :) ⛏️⛏️

I must admit BK is like a gold magnet and I’m more like a junk collector😂. Next time if he gets another inverted signal I would to hear what the 6000 sounds like🤔 Good luck with your weekend trip🤞🏼

Easily, as long as it was pushed up against the log.

Give my regards to Tony, glad to see you out there amongst the gold.

@@BKGoldDetecting will do we have been out twice for three months now Great bloke I stay with him Cheers 🍻 Crouch

There is always a risk of fire in the bush. We tend to go detecting during the cooler weather when the risk is lower.

Wow, tough choice, we have all 3 and love them all but for different reasons. Firstly cost, don’t be fooled by the big price tag on the GPZ and the 6000 compared to the 5000. For someone starting out the 5000 offers amazing value and once mastered can find most gold that the other 2 will find if you use the right coil. The sheer number of coil options for the 5000 make it a very versatile detector. I love the GPZ, but the 6000 is much lighter to use and will often find small stuff that the GPZ misses. The GPZ has some options that I love, the navigation feature is one, plus the depth of bigger gold. So it’s not an easy decision but for someone starting out I would suggest going for the lowest cost option first to test the waters. I would suggest second hand 5000 which can be picked up for a very reasonable price and perhaps a 6000.

@@BKGoldDetecting Thanks Kevin, I was leaning towards a 5000 with different coils and a gpx 6000 for her so that's good to know. I just wasn't sure whether it was the better option and missing out on the Z considering they can be picked up for 6.5k now.

Sounds like a great lap you’re doing… my gaiters are a brand called Sea to Summit. Gumvale is $10 a day to camp anywhere you like on the Station except a small area close to the homestead. It’s an additional $15 to detect. If you do decide to head there PM me and I’ll give you the location we filmed and some tips. Can’t guarantee we have left much behind tho, but no one gets it all. ⛏️⛏️

@@BKGoldDetectingThank you Kevin 👍

​@BKGoldDetecting hey mate love your content, im up in Tibooburra now and head home on Friday am stuggling a little up here its first time, do you have pointers for me out here. Thank you and keep up the great content

Yes, Eliza came back, she loves the gold but also misses the grandchildren. Good luck with the quest for gold nuggets. What machine you using these days?

I have a G P X 4500 with a 12 in nugget finder evolution coil

I often use a pin pointer as you would see in my video series. Didn’t have the need for it at Tibooburra as most of the gold was very small. When digging a very deep large target they are great.

@RickHollis-c1r They now charge $10 to camp plus $15 to detect.

Thanks, we love Tibooburra. I’m filming with an iPhone with an external microphone. Struggling a bit with wind noise even with a wind sock.

@@BKGoldDetecting The best two we’ve had come from Tibooburra were back in the early 90’s. One was a 41 gm piece in a creek bed and a 20 grammer out of a little dam wall in the Nuggety Gully area. We also saw a nice 37 grammer out of a dry blowing heap by some people from SA back in the 90’s it came from down behind the tip area.

Eliza uses unique settings because she is hearing impaired. She tends to run in difficult mode with high sensitivity and max volume. It works for her but I prefer a smooth threshold which usually means lower sensitivity. A lot depends on the area, if the ground is hot, lower settings, if quiet you can go to normal mode for higher sensitivity.

I love Tony’s channel, nice guy, put us onto a spot at Gumvale 5 years ago. Shame he had cleaned it out :)

Yes, but I can tell you she is very persistent, hard to get her to take a break sometimes.:)

I’m using the nugget finder 12inch on the GPZ. Eliza has the Coiltec Gold Hawk on the 6000.

@@BKGoldDetecting cheers

Thanks, we love all gold, but Tibooburra gold is special ⛏️⛏️
