00:00That's right, I have the gold in hand.
00:07When Job Drinkwater's wedding day was approaching, he didn't want just any ring.
00:13I thought, well, it's time to hook in and show the people that I can find gold for myself as well.
00:18It took the best part of a year to find enough gold to make two rings.
00:23The precious metal found in secluded creeks around the historic gold mining town of Hill End.
00:29It is fun to a certain extent, but to the unwitting, it could be a horror story.
00:35My secret spot is almost like travelling through an Amazon jungle.
00:40He then saddled up and rode three days to Bathurst to deliver the precious cargo to a jeweller.
00:46Oh, you just come down the street and you can hear the galloping coming down.
00:49Job just got off with the cowboy hat and took it off and walked in the shop.
00:54Job and Sarah got married back in Hill End.
00:56Their two bespoke wedding rings reflecting their personalities.
01:00Special, yeah, that it's come from the ground and Job spent all that time and hard work finding and digging for it.
01:11So, yeah, it's special, very special.
01:14But for Job, it's not about the shiny stuff.
01:17It's the woman to me that matters the most. The gold is nothing without her.
01:21A precious reminder of a golden occasion.
01:26.
