I know I have posted similar things to this , anyone needing a worker for some sort of mining , I'd be really keen. Posting this cause I really don't want to work berry picking again ! Thanks

Why not jump out there in the public fossicking areas or ask someone with a claim if you can have a go on theirs.. work out an arrangement etc...
Make a Hand dredge, grab a sluice box or a pan, become self employed in other words :)

I'm heading down to the promised lands in the next few weeks and will be sharping my skills for a few weeks around the Tasman areas.. not going down the Otago area this time... too much traveling :P

Anyway, best way I reckon is to get out there, meet the people, drink the beers and build the experience.

Go hard or go home.
