Doug Stone's Gold Atlas of Western Australia begins at Halls Creek in the Kimberly, the site of where the first payable gold in Western Australia was first discovered on 14 July 1885. More than 135 years later, Western Australia remains one of the world's largest and richest gold provinces.

Western Australia is most appealing to prospectors as the state has a mining culture, has retained its Miners Right and recognises the contribution that small miners and recreational fossickers make to remote communities and small regional gold towns. Western Australia is where the metal detecting boom commenced in the 1970's. Prospectors like Mark Creasy, Bob Moriarty, Bob Sargent, Ray Francis and others ventures out from Kalgoorlie and Meekatharra with their new detectors to see if they could locate gold nuggets.

Initially finds were kept quiet, but gradually word leaked out. Newspaper articles began to appear with excited faces looking down on glistening clusters of gold nuggets. As they say . . . the rest is history. Western Australia is still Australia's most popular metal detecting destination as the gold country (Auriferous deposits) stretches in a broad line from Norseman in the south through Kalgoorlie, Leonora, Wiluna, Meekatharra, Nullagine, Marble Bar, Halls Creek and west to the beaches of Karratha on the northwest coast.

There is no doubt that there is still plenty of gold to be discovered, so if you are serious about gold prospecting and finding gold in Western Australia, then this book is absolutely essential. The large format maps (refer to the second image in the gallery for locations), include details about alluvial gold diggings, mines, reefs and public lands, making it easier to narrow down targets for your next treasure hunt!

UTM map grids are also plotted in the margins so you can pinpoint your position using GPS.
