It's a fun challenge chasing gold, I've found only a little bit but it's taken me to some nice locations in the countryside... always hoping to find a bit more of course! Bendigo in Victoria, just a couple of hours from where I live they found a nugget of 70kg in the old times!

Whoa!! 70kg nugget awesome i wouldn't mind finding that in my pan!... the places that it takes us is the reward here too! the running joke here, we spend more to go prospecting than what we recover. I am not dedicated at all, @slivergingerman and I have found about a gram one summer and a tiny bottle's worth of mini garnets but we pan, no rigs, i get bored after a while and go search for petrified wood ,fossils and native american artifacts that may have been carried by the current. I just like being at the river.
Absolutely same here...I've certainly spent a lot more to go prospecting than I've ever found... probably 100 times more! But there's always to possibility.... so it beats golfing as a hobby for me :)
