It’s a tough place to dig but a lot of fun. Try move some rocks and get under them.

I was on the Rocky in May and pulled out nearly a gram of gold one afternoon. The gold is very fine, but there's a lot of it if you ignore the sands and go among the rocks, crevicing and digging. One of the nicer finds was a bunch of the odd flattened spherical crystals the oldtimers reported there.

the fossicking permit is if you want to fossick in a nsw state forest area, you do not require one elsewhere
@keza3250 Жыл бұрын
That's right no permit needed in nsw only state to still honor the constitution on fossicking rights,permit only needed if state forest,crown land an national parks

@@keza3250 : Well, the issue is a bit more complicated. For example, there used to be over 30 designated fossicking reserves in NSW. Wooldridge was one of them. Even though every fossicker needed a permit back then (I still have mine as a nostalgic keepsake!) it gave (in theory) similar rights as the Victorian Miners' Right. The NSW government in, IIRC, the late 1990s cancelled the permits and said anyone could fossick anywhere as long as certain rules were followed and permissions from landholders were sought. It sounded like a good deal! It was all BS, of course. Soon, the Fossicking reserves were closed and quietly absorbed into National Parks, sold or leased. Then access everywhere else began to be restricted. Former free areas such as Travelling Stock Reserves (on which some of the old Fossicking Reserves were located) banned fossicking. Public Commons were closed, shifted or had new rules applied by the government. Crown right-of-way sections of land (crucial to access some of the better fossicking lands) were quietly sold off to private interests. It's not all doom and gloom, though, as in the past five years or so that we've begun to have Fossicking Districts declared, which cut some of the red tape encountered when trying to get permission to fossick on mineral leases (large areas of the state are under these).
