One area in paticular i found on Google earth in the South island of New Zealand looks intreasting

Location
On top of a mountain,7km northwest of a place called Mt earnslaw.Its next to the dart river
44'35'38,68'South-168'18'02,97"East-44,5954033985-168.2997251

Description

Is you look at this area from Google earth and zoom in real close to the top end of this mountain you will see white streaks going across the top of the mountain.I believe these white streaks are large white quartz deposits.In alot of times you can find gold deposits going though white Quartz.

Access
Getting there would be very hard as its on top of a mountain-Climp up or get a helecopter.Good chance of gold being in the quartz deposits.

It's in glenorchy, it's doc land and also a hunting area, you can walk the mountain easy in 3 hours. Doesn't mean there's gold there though.

A few places in glenorchy are producing gold but it's everywhere through Queenstown.
