Hvorfor det er turen værd
The Queensland gemfields are one of the historic sources of blue and parti-coloured sapphire, and working the ground yourself shows how varied a single sapphire field can be.
Inden du tager afsted
The Queensland Government states that a fossicking licence is required in all areas and that fossicking is not permitted on the many mining leases and claims in these areas without the holder's permission. Five fossicking areas and six designated fossicking lands have been set aside in the Central Queensland gemfields for recreational and tourist fossicking.
