Due to general deluge conditions in Wales and the border counties I haven't been able to prospect since my last trip in September 2012. However, one weatherman has promised two weeks of better weather, so I am getting ready to make my first trip to scout three new rivers where I gained permission last year. If only I could recruit some keen volunteers to join in the fun and hard work, who preferrably have their own well-equipped campervans. I'm looking forward to great scenery, lots of brew breaks and hopefully a few flakes to prove some sites worth planning a longer spring campaign.
I'm avoiding North Wales on this trip. After a long battle two N Wales prospectors recently lost a civil court case against a mining company over the rights to a well known mine, and the estimated legal bill was £60,000! I think I'll let the golddust settle on that area for a while.
I'll let you all know how I get on in around ten days.
All the best to all my fellow prospectors around the globe.
