I hope you have GPS logged your finds, as these may come from a common source, follow the breadcrumbs. Nuggets on the surface (less than 0.5 meters) generally indicate that deeper investigation with more powerful equipment my yield more gold. Good luck.

that nugget pays for the metal detector. $6375 melt if not more because its a nugget.

@miskoe79 He is definitely not a fake. This is the deal he gets for living in Australia.

Except for the flanged button tektite I haven't noticed many meteor finds. Aren't a lot of meteorites worth more than their weight in gold? I guess it's hard to find them if you have ferrites tuned out, but do you keep a look out for unusually dark and iron looking pieces? If not, it would be advisable.
I love what you do man, living the dream. Good show.

@farenht456 yes, it's basically geology.. there is gold in the underlying rocks being slowly eroded out over millions of years and concerntrated on the surface.

If I go to australia, can I just start doing this right away or do I need permission to do this?

@BAAAASJE it is never so simple.. but there are many areas you can prospect without too many issues..

How long did it take you to find that thing. How many days/hours searching. I live in Colorado which has a rich gold mining history and with the price of gold soaring I'm seriously thinkin of trying some prospecting. Gold just jumped like $20 in the past couple days! Holy crapper!

Usually I find one decent nugget for every 5 to 7 days detecting.. they aint too abundant and I walk and swing for miles and miles to find them..
