These nuggets all found within four hundred metres of one central point, in other words along an 800m stretch of river...today it is hardly possible to raise a colour there hence the nuggets finally being shown.

All very smooth & water worn to an almost high polish. I really like that one on the right showing a bit of quartz. Thanks for sharing. Regards John (JW) :)
