    I guess that amateur Australian prospector didn't. He must be one lucky son-of-a-gun.

    Never give up. You will never fail, but you may find a lot of ways that don't work.

    Yeah, that is an unreal find eh?

    Must be nice to live in an area which offers up such for the looking...

    Here is an update on this high banker unit... we have it in 3 colors which seem to show gold nicely... I mean black ultimately would, but you would have a hard time seeing where the black sands are covering anything at a glance, and all though purple shows gold well, and we have used it for mat in one unit, that's as far as we take that color Which would you take down to the creek with yas?


    hmmmm... didn't get a sharp pic here... we will have to work on that? anyways, which one would you use, and why?
