@beswick1111 - see my reply to your other comment. Once you have a Fossicking License you are permitted to gold detect in General Permission Areas (GPA’s) in a few State Forests in Qld. You can also fossick on private properties, with the owner’s consent. A few properties in northern Qld allow people to fossick (April-October) eg: Dell’s Hole & Western Creek Stations around Georgetown. Good luck. 😀⛏⛏
@beswick1111 . No you cannot. You need to read the website link I sent you. Laws differ in each state or territory but in Qld you need a fossicking licence. With that you can detect in designated areas (GPA’s). On private property or mining leases you must get the owner and lessee’s consent.
Its not complicated once you get the hang of using it. I use it most days as part of my job role. If you add the layer for opendataportal it shows links in the results below for any data held by Geological Survey Queensland in relation to exploration in area's of QLD. Company reports, surveys, mapping and analysis results etc. You can also print short reports for some of the layers.
G’day Darrel. I use under the chin (stenographers) headphones I got from The Outback Prospector. Cannot remember the brand. I’ve just bought a pair of ZX headphones but yet to try them out. Usually prefer under the chin ones as I can then wear a broad brim hat. 😀⛏⛏
@Gardener7 … I had trouble locating info on this. One friend said ‘ I believe you don’t need permission from the EPM holder but you need permission from the land owner.’ Best to check with - MyMinesOnline helpdesk Phone: +61 7 3199 8133 Email: MyMinesOnline@resources.qld.gov.au
Hi Brett, that must be frustrating for you. Could it be because of this - “GeoResGlobe is a minerals and energy resources spatial viewer. It can be used on devices such as laptops and larger tablets. It is not available on mobile phones and smaller tablets.” If not, you may have to call their Help contact. 😀⛏️⛏️
