36 ounce Gold Nugget found

November was a month where we fell behind due to illness.

Hopefully all that is fixed and we can get on with developing the site again.

A 36 ounce Gold Nugget was found in Cue by a regular prospector on 11/11/2010 - it will certainly be a Rememberance Day for him in more ways than one.

This is a confirmed find unfortunately we cant provide a picture as it had been sold by the time we found out about it.

It just shows, there is still plenty of gold out there.

Everything is winding down to Christmas now, if you want a very special gift for someone who has everything - order a Metal Detector bag at the current prices.

The metal detector bags in stock are limited and we will not get any more stock until 2011.

Old Gold Mines - "Old Goldmine Finder" Database Development

The Old Goldmine Database is pretty much complete wth some final approvals and testing to do.

The main approval is a Commercial Licence that needs to be provided by the WA Government - this wont be a problem its just that it must be complied with.

The people at the Department of Mines and Resources are really outstandingly helpful when it comes to support like this - thanks folks.

Keep your eye on the website and this newsletter and we will give you the dates of release shortly.

Do You REALLY KNOW How Much Gold Is In Your Patch

Dont guess about the gold nuggets in a patch when you find a decent gold nugget.

The distribution pattern by weight of gold nuggets in a patch and the total weight available can be calculated.

How you can do that is included on the website at this link Gold Nugget Distribution;

We have tested this with a nugget patch we found and it was pretty close to the mark.

You can Calculate YOUR patch by entering only one number into the website and it will graph the results for you - try it - its free!
