A bit about me.

[rc62burke]

Hi All
I joined this forum a few days ago so I think it is time to give you some idea of who I am.
I am 40 married with 3 kids under 11, I live in Townsville North Queensland Australia (I call it "Paradise") I am a Plumber Drainer Gasfitter by trade but have worked as a professional Firefighter for the last 8 years it is an awesome job, I enjoy Bowhunting, Fishing, Camping, horse riding & Prospecting the fever has me good.
I love the research & study side of prospecting which keeps me busy when I can't get out, I use a metal detector, sluice, dryblower & pans in the search.
I am here to learn how to refine my gold & to get the most of the values I find.
This is a very interesting place from what I have seen so far, thanks.
cheers
Lee

C.W. Ammens recovery and refining of precious metals is a good book more geared towards recovery and refining of ore, I bought my book at Action mining.
