These statues are Excellent. The statues capture the back breaking work involved in prospecting for gold.
What might be overlooked, is that the prospector with the pickaxe is leaning on the pickaxe likely from the back breaking work.
Nice pictures,I sometimes watch Australia gold diggers with their metal detectors I would love to give it a go it must be great finding gold like that. Thanks mike
I have been gold detecting and it is fun. It's awesome when you get that signal, dig it up and hold it in your hand. I look at the nugget and think that's been laying there for millions of years just waiting for me to dig it up, it's pretty cool, cheers mate.
The detector cost me about $6000 and you have to buy a permit for I think it was about $20. I had to drive to the other side of the country to find gold, the biggest piece I found was just over 6 grams and a nice looking piece too, cheers mate.

I reckon, it just goes to show the real value of gold when you bust your back just for a few specks of gold and it's worth it, cheers mate.
Those old timers are putting in some hard work by the look of it.
It was back breaking work in those days, thanks lyrica, cheers.
