Grabben Gullen help please?
« on: February 21, 2019, 03:48:33 PM »
I've been to the bridge and panned around in the creek below and found nothing. Not even a spinel.

I'd like to go back and maybe walk the creek for a better spot, but I would really appreciate some help please.

Would anyone be so kind as to private message me a better place to look and sit quietly with a pan and garden trowel?

I just go to get away from the grind and the noise of people. Good for my mental health.

Many thanks,

Baz.

Hey mate!

Just saw this post.

I’m heading there next week and I’m curious.. Am I wasting my time? Is there anywhere else a complete amateur can try around ACT?

Cheers!

The fossicking reserve is only a small are from the bridge down and has been hit hard over the last 15 years. You might try the guys at https://www.canberralapidary.org.au/

I try to take one day at a time, but sometimes several days attack me at once.
