Awesome half oz chunk mate. I remember a bloke told me 25 years ago, that we do not buy expensive detectors to find scraps. Words to live by.

Thanks mate! I hope the detector is listening to your words. Fingers crossed there are a few more out there.

Wow! That is a really good looking chunk of gold. I wouldn't clean it any more. It looks great how it is. The other bit is a good piece too even at one tenth of the other ones weight. Well done 👏
@BendigoGoldProspecting4 ай бұрын
Thanks for following mate! I really like the quarts and ironstone too. Definitely planning to keep it as is.
@steven_ewen4 ай бұрын
@BendigoGoldProspecting I found a small ironstone, quartz specimen that the gold twisted around like a spiral around a miniature ice cream cone in the Bendigo region two years ago. Total weight Only about 0.6 grams though. Still cool shape that your Slug reminded me of. Cheers
