Hi Hobbyist,

Thanks for joining us here Great

you are very right, we do have a great country here, and yes also short of man made treasure.... The rocks etc are plenty here, although the great ones are not easy to get unless you buy them.....

If you look on my webpage you can see my rock collection that I have.....

I am more into war relics and coins, and they are not as plenty as what you guys have..... But we do enjoy our trips out detecting, and when we do get a good find, well it is just a bonus.

Hobbyist I think you make a good point about the naural stuff. What about all Paul Krugers gold Peter ??

Goldnboy, yeah that is one of the great stories going around, but it is a needle in a very big haystack.... I guess it is like looking for the Jessie James treasure.... If you find it great Great

but you cannot spend your life on it.....
If you look in the forum on my webpage, you will see that I have already found a Kruger pound, so I guess I do have a 1 in the million of the Kruger millions Cheesy

The boer war sites are the best thing we have at this time in South Africa, unless you are lucky to have a farm like Viking has to search with some great finds....

Gambol1,

Thanks for visiting my site and for looking at the rock collection Great

I am not an expert at this side of treasure, so do not know the names on lots of the rocks..... All those with the numbers on the rocks came from a bought set with all the names on them....
I have been back into the site and have added numbers to each rock, I should of done that in the beginning Grin

Any help will be appreciated very much....

Okay so I missed a few pages.
Some new folk on board.....g'day!
As far as the state giving permission.....they should demand that the site of development be searched and the relics removed, I want to see a time when the search results form part of the officially required documentation.
I believe there is an operation in South Africa called Viking Industries Pty Ltd that are already offering this service....hehehe! Rider

Peter and Xavier are planning to climb another anthill?

Hello Peter I plan on having a look at your web site. I'm into rocks and all that kind of stuff Cool

have you followed the Paul Kruger Legend! I have met some people a while ago who had met with his family. I remember one story about a Mule train packed with gold? I think that may have been after the train journey. How to prove any of this. I'm not so sure.
