Gold Going Ballistic And I Love It!

Silver is the poor man gold when it comes to investing. While gold going up don't sell silver. -

Using Satellite Imagery In Search Gold
geof_junk replied to Renatsvarog's topic in Detector Prospector Forum
In the very early day of metal detecting (late 1970s ) in Victoria Aust. First it was Aerial Photo to find surfaced places. Google Earth was released (originally as EarthVierer 2001 ) and by using Government Databases it allowed more locations to be found easier. -

Silver the poor mans gold, but the gain is better when the ballistics happen. -
Many years ago while bushwalking I came across the Red Robin mine in the Victorian Alps National Park in Vic. Australia International expert Professor Rick Sibson talks about how fluids, faults and earthquakes interact in the crust to form fault-hosted gold deposits. Ken Harris has mined a typical fault-hosted deposit at the Red Robin mine in the Alps of southeast Australia. Some interesting video of Ken Harris action in his 34 year effort.

The only 100% guarantee discrimination is a divining rod in one hand and a target sample in the other. π I think you are on the right track. The size of the target, the depth of the target, the response to the frequency of the target, the height of the ground of the coil, all tell a different story. Some people are better than others of reading them, but it is time for AI to catch up with us Experience Operators. π Lets hope that we get most of the good targets before AI allows any first timer get that advantage.

Reg I was not impressed with the 15000 but the GT16000 made me take notice of MineLab but their Hype restricted me from joining the band for some years.

Eric it is a dream adventure/trip and take it as such. If you forget the gains that maybe found it is worth it, a cheap ship cruise is about is about $2000 to $5000 a week for 2 people with no return from luck or skill except on the pokies and cards. Just one thing I had all the historical mines locations and extensive GPS use and Knowledge before I went to West Aust in 2003 when I retired. A lot of local Pro. gold prospectors were asking me for gps location of certain mines which I help them locate. I found many unknown spots but someone else had been in the area. There was a few lucky ones that got most of the gold and fortunately a few unlucky ones that missed the gold that made my efforts more than paid off..

If the hole is too big for the little pick, it is worth while going a mile or two to get the big pick. βΊοΈ
