Pulling on your chain Gare! Maybe Bart or one of those lucky boys on the Gold coast could answer this. I wonder about that couple in CA that found that loot on their property a few years back. Good question, why did you hit the mother load? :hello2: :laughing7:

Thank you :)
 

Not yet, but I'm new.
 

If you have found one few questions.
1. Did you report it ?
2. Did you lose a percentage of it for taxes ?
3. How would you handle your NEXT big find ?
4. How or why did you hit the mother load ?
Nope Mr IRS, I never find anything but trash.
 

Hi Gare. I know its not what you had in mind, more actual treasure but its something close.
I once found a rich reef. The stone was crazy mineralised and full of gold. I got a number of ounces from it but the going was seriously hard and I was only able to get to a mere three feet down.
After being burnt by so many in the prospecting game here I decided it stays where it is and id prefer it to remain a mystery. Its now backfilled and undetectable due to the top section now gone and the rest covered. I went back there about 6 months ago to see if anyone by some crazy chance had found anything there. Nope, its been undisturbed for 10 yrs now, overgrown so much I took ten minutes to find the exact spot. I found it through perseverance after finding some lovely nuggets and specimens yrs earlier below it knowing the source had to be close by. I attribute the detector and the prior knowledge of gold being there to finding it. The first detector I found gold there with was an SD2100. I went back numerous times with others like the SD 2200 but it was the GPX 4500 with its increased sensitivity and ability to use monoloop coils in heavily mineralised ground which got it. I found a number of small specimens which led up the hill in a narrow line to the source. All of them were very very faint signals as was the source which was more a low soft groan than a standout sound. The other detectors didn't hear them.
I call it the Hidden reef because thats what it is now and will remain as far as im concerned.
This is some of it. Iv posted the pic before but not told the full story.

This came from out of a specimen I found there before finding the actual reef. Taken next to one of your dollars given to me by a US Vietnam veteran who came to Aus yrs ago who I knew from another forum. I lost contact with him unfortunately and have never been able to track him down. Nice guy.

Hello Gare a lot of questions there. Each can have complex answers for how, if and when and the tax ramifications relevant to the country and state in question.

I cannot comment in public forum on the grounds I may or may not incriminate myself. Violate any Non Disclosure agreements under corporation law. And any legal requirements under local, state and Federal or international laws and or international agreements. Pursuant to any such claims in relation to any such recovery or disposal of any such assets, from due diligent research of primary documents and from dedicated successful search and recovery plan.
