Jack Lange's Gold Hunting Adventures and Tips Kindle Edition
Come with Jack and Margaret on their fabulous gold discoveries in trackless, uninhabited regions of Australia where old-time prospectors struggled for survival or perished in their pursuit of gold.
Their adventures reveal their hard earned tips - secrets that the tight-lipped pros certainly won’t tell you. You will begin to wonder if you too can find gold nuggets and realize that there are plenty left to be found.
Join them in their pursuit of gold in areas that range from uninhabited deserts of Australia to a Papua New Guinea war zone.
Let Jack and his crew introduce you to some of Australia’s most isolated and colorful characters - both human and the other kind. At times they are charmed by them, sometimes terrified by them. You may discover a side to Australia you never dreamed existed.
“Jack Lange tells a rip roaring tale about what has been his rip roaring life. He has managed to be in the right place at the right time…and quite often the wrong time. It’s well worth the read.” Les Hiddins - The Bushtucker Man
Jack Lange is a gold prospector, author, entrepreneur, documentary maker and
surprisingly, preacher, rolled into one. He lives with his wife Margaret near Townsville Australia. They have two adult children, Roland and Maria, raised on adventure.

This book had a bit of a slow start for me but I am so glad I persevered. Now I just want to get out there and prospect.

I spent time with Jack white he was writing this book. He's a great bloke to spend time with, especially if you get to go out detecting with him.
The book is a collection of stories from the times Jack has spent in the bushland and it's a great book to just have in your glovebox while you're taking a break from detecting in the Australian heat!

Excellent nugget hunting experiences by Jack Lange

Excellent nugget hunting experiences by Jack Lange. Besides the exciting stories and finds, it is full of good nugget hunting info that can be used in the field by newbies or pros. I'm not an Aussie but "Good on ya Jack!"
