VIEVER'S FLAT

Please click on the photos at right to see a larger view and detailed information.

A large flat area on the way to Black Soil diggings. There is little digging to do here it is just a matter of walking and more walking the flats to collect the small agate protruding through the black soil. This is a late season fossicking area as there is generally a ground covering of herbs and grasses just after the wet season. The cattle will eat this covering as the winter months arrive allowing agate to be spotted more easily.
