April 2023 Club Hunt

This months hunt was a first for a few of our members making the trip to the gold fields of Clermont. It didn’t disappoint either, with a few nice nuggets found over the couple of days hunting.

The sight of gold coming out of the ground is an experience that you never forget. The guys also found some nice relics on their trip to go with the gold.

We also had a local meeting for the members that couldn’t make it to Clermont. A few nice little trinkets were found overall including a silver ring, 1918 threepence and some other goodies.

Have a look through the photos here to see what was found.
