Jackhammer

Jackhammer While the classic image of a prospector might be someone wielding a pickaxe, the Australian outback relies heavily on powered tools for fossicking, particularly jackhammers. These come in two main flavors: electric and petrol-driven. Electric jackhammers are quieter and more environmentally friendly, but their reliance on generators makes them less practical in remote locations. Petrol-powered jackhammers, on the other hand, pack a punch and are self-contained, perfect for breaking up tough rock faces suspected of harboring gold nuggets. Their powerful hammering action helps fossickers penetrate hard ground quickly, making them a popular tool for unearthing hidden treasures in the vast expanse of the outback.
