Hi Wally,
Smiths Plains, as in near Moina? I haven't been to the area myself, maybe Phil has, it's near his place.

Gday wally. Ive been up there a few times looking and have panned every creek. Ive never seen a single speck. There is a big exploration report online was some drilling done there years ago. Found some galena with some trace gold deep down but thats about it.

HI all
the only place i found any was at this creek on Loonganna Road on top of a pile of gravels on the right that have been excavated out of the creek bottom i presume. The same creek crosses smiths plains road further south and its head water adjacent the Devonport Mine. It was a nice flake of gold if that helps. Ive not been back up there for years though. My car blew up on the return trip to monia that day. The place is bad "car"ma (pun) for me.

Hi all, i cant log into the Tasmanian prospecting site myself at the moment. But, have finally managed to restored the website to the last known good post a couple of Weeks ago. Its a major problem experienced by a lot of people that upgraded there sites using phpbb and im working on a fix as fast as i can. i only get a day a week and sometimes 2 that i am able to try and fix this. They get the internet in Queenstown of course but mine is shocking and drops out mid upload so its simply not possible from there. I dont know if i will have time this week from home to get it all working correctly and am so sorry its taken so long. i have to read so much code and mumbo jumbo and learn so much about mysql and implementing some of the new fixes does not always work at all. I do appologise once again. I guess at least its getting back to normal Just a few database issues i think. (SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL) WTF..... argggh/// Have a great day and wish me luck. Phillip
