Hi all,

I'm Chris, 33 years old and live in the Netherlands. It has been a while (highschool) since i've been writing German so i'dd figured English would probably be more understandable. Reading German however is no problem!

I'm digging for gold for the past 4 years. Field trips were mainly to Switzerland, Belgium (Ardennes) and Netherland (rhein). Most equipment used is home made, for example a sluicebox with rubber mat, a highbanker and a henderson pump.

Unfortunatly the netherlands has not much places of interest when looking for course gold i.e. > 50 mesh. In the Ardennes are some gold carrying rivers, however, it is forbidden to dig for gold in Belgium. Hence my interest in your forum. I hope I can learn something about the techniques others use and about nice places to prospect

Best Regards,

Nuggeteer
