Little Specie After Acid Bath

[GoldEn]

Hi all

I am new on this Site but many Aussies here know me by name GoldEN or real name Enio.

I also detected and camped with most of them.Great bunch of people.

This hobby gave me not just few nuggets but some memories from trips and some lifetime friends.

For me this is what detecting is all about.Gold is just a bonus.

Detect mostly in Golden Triangle in Victoria Australia.

Dream is to detect to another Holly grail of detecting here -WA.

Its on my bucket lsit

I detect with gpx500 but last few months i use sc2300 most of detecting day.

its fun and proven goldfinder.

I hardly ever go home  without few nuggets in a jar.They might me smallkl but they all add and trill of chasing and digging them out makes it worthwhile.

My  phone camera has been broken so i couldn't post some photos.

No wi fixed it so i might go through some older photos and post.

For start one nice specie found in Moliagul -home of the biggest nugget ever found.

Part of fun when detecting is come across all sort of different creatures.

Well met our Blue Tongue Lizard:

Enio, if you ever do get to WA you're always welcome at my camp and the beer is my shout.

Welcome!

Great photo of the lizard goldEn.

He doesn`t look like he has missed many meals.

There are never too many pictures of specimens and nuggets.  I wish more pictures were taken before they are dollied up.

Hi Enio

Nice specie mate . I noticed it was a lizard that you took the photo of. As I know if it was a snake you would have been miles away, and not with a camera in hand.  I know you just don't like snakes  But who does????  I got to agree with you about the SD2300 mate, your pretty deadly with one of those in your hand. When your up this way again  We'll try and catch up. Until then "Cheers"

 GoldEn; I am assuming that since you are in Australia that the Blue Tongue Lizard grows to about 11' long is deadly poisonous and can pursue you at 36 miles per hour. Since I live within sight of where I was born and have rarely traveled any where stories and photos from far away places are very special to me. Thanks.

Hey Mitchel
I`m not really hijacking this thread because goldEn found this piece about 6 months ago and I took this photo of it before it was dropped into acid. From memory he got it with the 2300.    We took it out of the acid last week but it still had a little bit of the brown rock on it, so it went back into fresh acid.  I think goldEn took a photo of it last week but I am not 100% sure
cheers Dave
