Field trip to Gladstone - Mt Cameron Fossicking Area, 9 Oct 2021

I thought I would mention the water quality in creeks coming off Mt Cameron. If camping I would not rely on the sparkling little creeks for my water supply. Historic tin mining areas are known for heavy metal contamination of streams. Picturesque Little Blue Lake at South Mt Cameron has signs advising against drinking the water.

Good on you Miguel for checking out the area.
