Heya Guys,

As i mentioned in Meet and greed- i am absolutely new person to metaldetecting , literaly 72 hours since i got my Gold bug :D
As i live in Auckland there is no public gold fo areas at all at north island.
I checked procing for permit and fully aware of thousands dollars it is for even exploration permit.

I am wondering if there are claim owners at north island i can go with on a trip once i learn my metal detector? :D
also who would take me on a trip in South island if i manage to get flight down and back?
What would it cost me monetary , surrending finds or what ever it cost ?

I am reading through the forum to familiarize with main members, their stories and so on.

any feedback is aprisiated at this stage :D

Around about post number 8 will answer some of your queries and all I can say is hang around, post when you feel like contributing something etc and sooner or later you will meet a likeminded person willing to share some info etc.
It seems theres etiquette to follow around asking about locations etc.
