And out if trouble we deserve the same rights as these big mining companies, we don't do any damage to the environment. We actually clean up other people's mess as we go, these bigger companies are allowed to discharge chemicals into creeks and old shafts eg tailings in to old shafts ,where chemical cyanide treatment has been used .it's draining into deepwater drinking catchments. They are ripping up marsh areas with great abundance of wildlife disruption and death, with promises of regenerating areas. yet these areas are left from the publics view as your not allowed on the lease areas .that are no longer operating being mined or are in as they call it, under care and maintenance. Fair go for the great ozzy battlers. What happened to the land of golden opportunities. A free country. Australia

They try to tell us that taking our kids , parents, grand parents out into the bush to engage in a healthy pass time like gold or gem fossicking is no good for us or the environment. What they don't realize is just how much dangerous material such as lead is taken out of the river system. They also keep the forestry tracks clear from severe overgrowth thus aiding in emergencies such as bush fire control. Kids learn what the Australian bush is so famous for around the world instead of spending their time enjoying all the wonderful sights around their local shopping centers encouraging each other to take up cool things like smokes and drugs. I have nothing against greenies but why are so many of them hypocritical ...ill informed...and so easily led into false beliefs about what is good for them and us. Give them a gold pan ... a tent ..a sleeping bag and some good company for one weekend in the bush and i guarantee they will come away enlightened.........
