8 Day Camping & Prospecting Trip To The NE Goldfields of WA

Join us as we go on an 8 day camping and prospecting trip to the North East goldfields of Western Australia.
We camped overnight on the first and last day at the ski lakes, 20km east of Kellerberrin.
We visited the Merredin grain silos, a quick shopping stop in Kalgoorlie, the Grand Hotel in Kookynie, Yundramindra homestead and the abandoned Mount Remarkable homestead.

I show you our camp, some cooking tips, prospecting for gold, as well photos of some of the places we visited.
My Nissan Navara averaged 14.5L/100kms towing the camper trailer and we covered a total of 2291kms. Diesel at Kellerberrin was 112.9cpl and at Tammin it was 108.9cpl with my RAC discount.
The Navara is fitted with a 145L long range fuel tank, giving me a range of approx. 1000kms....I do carry a 20L jerry can of diesel, just in case.

With the current gold price at $2658.39 per ounce (31.1 grams = 1 troy ounce), the 0.55gm nugget I found is worth $47.
