There's a few places I wouldn't mind having a look at that are either already permitted or access to there is though someone's permit?im guessing that the larger permit holders will tell me to piss off but are the smaller permit holders approachable ? Also what's the differance between a mining permit and a prospecting permit ? Do they both mean you can't legally look for gold there? Sorry for all the questions I'm sure they have been covered before but couldn't find them in the search Thanks in advance Mahuta
