Hi all, Got a 3 day weekend and spent most of the time cleaning up the yard and cleaning out gutters as the fire season has started.If we don,t clean up townhall will send us a nice fine.So kind of them. Gave my 88 year old mate over the back fence a hand to get his place cleaned up too.Managed a get a few hours in up the old mine sites up the road. Eyed this surface find, Part of a opium pipe bowl with a small hole in the top,Found plenty of shards of pottery and glass lying around and the only md find today is a small quartz speck with about 3 grams of gold in it.Heres a pic of the pipe bowl in the mud the gold and some site pics.
