Hi All just to get an idea of type of gold is found in some goldfields in Queensland, Australia.Found with 2300. Flat piece has 0.8 grams and was given as a present to me from a detecting mate Ruffles. (probably as a present i didn't go with them hihi). GoldEN

Hi all Checking some nuggets from past trips and making some photo to share:Enjoy. All couple grams each. GoldEN

i though this piece on the left was a particularly interesting specimen because it is so deceivingly light! Believe it or not, both nuggets are nearly identical in weight, at just under 3 grams (with the bigger crystalline looking piece actually being slightly lighter)... At a glance you would assume it was 2-3x bigger. It almost reminds me of crumpled aluminum foil that is loosely balled up, but if you really press on it it will get way smaller. Just a cool piece I thought I'd share.

I got out for a quick 2½ hour detect today at a spot where most times I come home empty handed but I know of some nice pieces that have come from there in the last 5 years and I got this half grammer. It`s not so much the size of the piece as the signal it gave off. I run a very low threshold, if I turn down the threshold just 2 numbers I can`t hear it, and this piece came through as very soft electrical interference. From the signal I was getting I had no idea of size or depth and I was disappointed it was only down 6" in super hard gravel. I was hoping what ever it was, it was going to be much deeper. But any day I come home with a rattle in the jar is a good day. cheers Dave

My mission to pay off my GPZ is off to a good start. Saturday was out for a few hours and picked up 8.2 g. Then today made it out, and got 10.6 g big one was 4.2 g. I was amazed at the depth of the 3 gram nugget. Just been hitting old patches mostly, with a couple of stray nuggets here and there. cheers. Chris

G'day All, here are some of my favourite little nuggies. Examples of Wire Gold and Crystallne Gold found in WA over the last few years. The 2 bottom pieces were found in the same area and are very close in size/shape we decided to hang onto them to make them into a pair of earrings. Well one these days that is. thanks all for having a look at these nice little nuggies. cheers. Mike.

Hi all son went out the other day down here in Victoria (Aussie) land In a well detected area. he was using his gpz7000 with the 19 inch coil, general gold mode and difficult ground mode he said it was a wirey sort of sound, thought it need to be investigated. with his pick he scrapped off a layer of dirt, then he said it sounded better.. after digging down 24 inches this is what he was rewarded with.

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: GoldEN
