My first attempts at sapphire fossicking. I was lucky enough to meet Beau, an experienced fossicker, who was kind enough to give me a great introduction and many insights into the techniques of sapphire fossicking. Even though I wasn't successful in finding any sapphires, I learnt so much from him that I am confident that with more practise, I will find some. As Beau says, "the more rocks you put through, the more heavies you will find."
I am sure that viewers, particularly those new to fossicking, will find something of use here.
Grabben Gullen Creek is found about two hours south west of Sydney and a bit more than an hour from Canberra.
Special thanks to Beau and Dave for being so accomodating and helpful in letting me record this adventure.
