Swing a pick with the Gift of Chiness Goldminer's Prosperity {gold}
Hi all , Well i was sitting in front of the air-con for couple of days and got bored. The daly temperture here in the last few days has been over 100 degrees. I had enough so on went the boots and out door. In resent times i have a little luck but nothing to keep going too the resent sites. Change was a good idea. I headed out a place called Kangaroo Gully . There alot a places called this in Australia. Kind like a common name. LoL The area was mined by chiness and mostly English. Here link about the chiness in this area.

I started in what was the chiness camp a long the lead trail that seperated the tent rows i got a large number of targets. This included 2 chiness cash coins ,half an opium scrapper and few buttons. I was running my gain on about 7 which is quite low from a 12 mono coil. Lost a bit of depth but up the target volume to get the targets at over 11 inches. Soft signal perfect .So then there was no signals at all. I then realized i had crossed over the limit of the chiness diggings >no more round shaft holes or Puddler dams [these are quite small used to settle the water for reuse] Managed 2 muskets balls that were fired by some claims owners to tell others they were armed. Often fire at dusk and dawn.
Now i had be where the english miners had been. No where as good as chiness miners so i had 100% chance of picking of a few small pieces of gold. First within minutes, then another and more. 3 pieces in 10 minutes. Dropped the target volume and gain up to 11. Switched motion from slow to very slow . This becomes a game of patience. Went to manual over rid and freq i sent on 104 . brought the threshold up to i could a gentle hum bit louder than a bee. Didn,t get any thing over a gram but with the few other pieces i had found this week . 1/2 oz for my effort % pieces fell just short , the largest being .986 of a gram.
