Adjungbilly has the Shaking Bog Alluvial field in NSW State Forest. It's in the opposite direction to the coast up the Wee Jasper to Tumut Rd.

Detai led scientific studies of the alluvial deposits are notably lacki ng.

15 degrees from the vertical angled towards the head of the sluice is the ideal angle for Clarkson riffles. If you are running standard Hungarian riffles, there isn't a set rule, although, if their angle is to low, they become nothing more than a speed hump. Better keeping the angle between 15 and 20 degrees off the vertical sloped downstream.

The peak of Tasmanian gold production was reached in 1899 when the total output of alluvial and reef gold was 2,381 Kilograms. Only a small part of this came from the West Coast. The most productive alluvial field in Tasmania was the Lisle Goldfield, north of Mt. Arthur, which is reputed to have produced about 250,000 ounces of gold.
