Description

Individual digging sites - dirt road access. Reward is one of six areas of Designated Fossicking Land on the central Queensland sapphire fields where recreational and tourist fossicking is possible under simple Fossickers Licences. Wash around the Reward diggings in the eastern part of the area is relatively deep and generally unsuitable for fossickers, although there may be some shallower material between there and the main road to the north-west. The most popular area for fossickers is the Washpool digging near the western boundary, where the wash is shallow. Fossicking and camping are not permitted on the numerous mining leases and claims in these areas without the permission of the holders. Details of these tenures can be obtained from the local mining registrar.
