The Goldmine Finder Software and Data for over 34000 mines in West Australia which was formerly available on CD is now no longer available.
In the past although you could find old gold mine names and mud maps showing you the way to the gold you did not have precise GPS localities.
Over the last century those old map marks and tracks no longer exist - you need precise GPS points of the old gold mine to find it again.
We understand that you need a way to find this data so we have created a few new pages for you to find old gold mines Data and Historical Gold fields information and download the data for use in Software like GeoMap or as GPS points for use in your GPS Equipment.
