Hi mate. Ive been trying to find info on gemstones as such. And the laws are extremely unclear for tasmainia prospecting I know you need a prospectors license to fossik in non designated areas, and i think you possibly own the minerals you find? Thats the part i find unclear, are you allowed to do what you want with rocks and gems / can you sell them? Or are they owned by crown land?... Finding it extremely difficult to find any answers. I see plenty of crystals and gemstones on ebay for sale and im just generally curious of the laws.

As a permanent resident, with a fossicking permit you are definetly allowed to fossick/prospect abiding by the rules. I have been a permanent resident for nearly 10 years now, just havent had the time to look into citizenship or the extra cash. Even non Australian tourist's can get a miners right/fossick permit and have a go.
