Detectorless. It is a time for research.

After one more fast and fruitless search in a small public grass area in Kumeu, which turned up mostly nails, my good friend has reclaimed his ACE 150 so until my new detector arrives I will be doing some research on local history rather than detecting and will try to find out more about potential search areas in and around Auckland. I will share what I uncover on my 'Places to Look' page.  Recently I heard of early gold mining activities in the area of Maraetai and on investigation uncovered information on the history of many mines in that area. So many that I put it on a separate page. See 'Gold Mines in Auckland!' for some of the info on those sites.

Be back out soon.
