Hi everyone, haven’t posted in a little while but my best mate and I went out to a creek last weekend while I detected and he did some panning in the creek which was very good results and need to work out a way to get a highbanker down, it’s not really the highbanker that’s the problem it’ll be the heavy af battery I’ve got that will be a hassle so need to look at getting a good lightweight one 🤣
Check it out and give Crerar prospecting on YouTube a subscribe 🤙🏻😊

Classifying down material that I collected from a spot yesterday my best mate and I went to that seems like it was on a bit of a quartz vein, just panned out the cons that was left at the end of classifying from one bucket and found this beautiful bit of gold so hopefully there’s a lot more of them in the material I’m running through the highbanker 🤞🏻

Took the Matt's Crevice Tools highbanker out to the creek today and had this beauty of a flake and few other ones a little bit smaller sitting in the hopper, a lot more of these size bits would be nice 👌🏻

Got a new smaller pan for cleaning up my snuffer bottle from Gold Ballarat Prospecting Equipment, pretty happy with what I’ve got after I think two sessions since I last did a clean up! The darker colour pan really makes the gold stand out and easier to remove the white sand except for the tin sand but still good 👌🏻
More gold to add to the vile, hoping to get a bit more gold soon but pretty flat out at the moment putting the paint on
Hope you all have a great weekend 😊

Breaking apart some rocks to smash up in the Matt's Crevice Tools dolly pot 👌🏻
Would be nice if there’s some shiny yellow stuff in there 🤞
