A Minelab 16000, oh boy, that is going back a long time.   I had a Minelab 15000, that wasn't much cop although the modern day Minelabs are top of the range world wide.

I find Gold all the time but it isn't mine so I totally ignore it.
I Reline ball and Sag mills for a quid and quite a lot of them are gold mills.
I have even had to chip that gold crap off the walls on a mill so that I can fit new liners in there :angel:
If they were sovereigns I would probably pinch them but it isn't, just raw metal to me and of zero interest and a pain in the bum as far as I am concerned.

Goldie: Indeed it was a while back. Just checked the Minelab site and they say late 1987 which would be right. I still remember parting with around $1400 back then for it at the Miner's Den in Sydney.

In the CAB issue before last, there was a right hand side page with a photo of Ian McConnelly along with his Tazzie address and mobile number. I've lost my copy somewhere and want to write him a letter ...... would someone be kind enough to let me know what his address and mobile are. Thanks! :mr47_05:

Thanks for that PPH, greatly appreciated.

I seem to be losing more and more things lately, I'd even had it written down on a piece of paper and do you think I can find that! :dash1:

Ian lists his address and Ph No at the end of all his articles in CAB,
so if you can find just 1 issue of the magazine, you'd be right. :angel:

Thanks Nancy, I'd bought that copy purely after seeing that Ian's contact information was published. I'm going to contact him regarding a variety.

Still haven't found the magazine, nor even read it yet!

I haven't bought one for years now (heaven forbid!!!!) ..... actually I think the last was when it was the Australian Coin Review. I am assuming that it was renamed? Must see if they are in the shed ...... I know there's a couple of boxes marked magazines.

Anyhow, not to worry, Kathryn has helped me out (Thanks again PPH).

They were separate magazines and merged in 2002 or thereabouts.

Yes there was a period where there was 2 magazines then it was CAB inc. ACR.
