I recently asked for feedback about an outfit called Gold Prospecting Australia who conduct prospecting tours and training.
Willie gave them a good wrap.
My bride and I just did a weekend with them at Wedderburn (Vic).
Of the 7 in the group, 4 of us had never seen a detector before, the others had brought one second hand but wanted to know how to use it.
We had a couple of hours talking through the basics of detecting, then out in the bush using their gear, with Mark and his partner Rhonda working with us as much as we needed.
All up the group came up with 5 bits totalling about 2.5 grams (one nugget was 1.2 grams), so the "catch" was not great, but we were all rapt.
I was very impressed with the professionalism and knowledge of Mark and Rhonda. They are very nice people to boot. I would recommend them to anyone who wants to look into gold propecting.
(Not tied to GPA in any way, just a very satisfied customer)
By the way, on the way home yesterday, called into CoilTech and brought a Minelab 4500 and full kit, so need to find some serious nuggets now.
Cheers
Jeff
