Hey all, spent about 6 months in New Zealand last year. Had a great time doing the gold prospecting thing. Here's a few photos:

Wow NZ49er I guess gold is where you find it. I knew AUS was good rich but you're the first I've seen to share NZ gold. Congratulations!
 

Yeah, they had their own gold rushes in NZ. Quite a colorful history. Check out Youtube for NZ prospecting. There are still quite a few people who do it professionally/semiprofessional.
 

That's some good looking gold, congrats! How were you getting it? Highbanker? Dredging?
 

Mostly panning, sluicing, and crevicing.
