  • These Trees Show You Where To Find Gold
    Finding gold is not easy. There are a lot of creeks that have gold right across the world, however, even on those rivers and streams gold can be tricky to find.
    That's because for over 170 years since the gold rush, these goldfields have been sluiced, panned, dredged and creviced again and again. Often leaving us to wait until big floods replenish the gold.
    But if your are willing to pay attention to the creek and take your time in observing it, you will sometimes spot places people miss.

This includes National Parks such as Chiltern Mt Piolet NP where Reedy Creek is located. Unless your dog is an accredited service animal they are not allowed to enter NP.
    Check your local regulations, as each state and territory is different, before you travel into or though NP with your dog. Here is the Parks Victoria website for those of you wishing to read up on Victoria's laws 👉 www.parks.vic.gov.au/things-t...

    Back on the 1970s on the turon we used to pan gold using frying pans out of root balls of large fallen trees

    The specialist observations about deposition, so ace, Chris! This is the third I've seen lately that has looked into the value of finding a long root on a creek, source, ey, saucy, long-rooted straggling struggler trees, on gold-bearing bedrock, where a big horizontal root leads to that crack where the last of the moisture reservoirs, hence where the gold and other heavies settle, that get frequently rewashed, so it's not a flood-only deposit, but is a locus of long-term natural classification. I thought it's the big old regrowth stump upwards, nup, yes, on finding surface diggings, the trees got used for suring underground, on the creek itself, it's the long root you're after! (Pete of Pete's Gold Adventures was one of the other long roots lodes observations, and at Gary's house of OzDetecting, a garden shrub 2 metres tall with 30 metre tap root through his drainage pipe, causing flooding about his yard, the f***er was a monster vegetable anaconda. Related that to Pete's observation per long roots. Yes, I'll make sensible remarks, plus throw in a laugh grenade. C ya!

    Chris, you certainly was lucky to spot that layered area! You could definitely see that it was deposited many years ago and was basically untouched ground. Although it was a small area of a gold payout, those were some nice sized pieces. Plus, did you keep that clear, good sized garnet that was in your pan? It was beautiful 🤩
    Thank you for always sharing your knowledge and explaining how to gold prospect. I pray that you find a massive amount of gold! Blessings from Alabama ❤️

    FIRST OFF!!! Thank you very much for sharing your knowledge as well as giving a fabulous in depth description of what to look for when the gold is hiding. I get all your videos here in Florida, unfortunately I have to travel 7 hours before I am in any gold bearing land. I am absolutely brand new at this, let me say that first, it seems to me that when you use your flat pan with a large pile of hard dirt dried together that without thoroughly, I would say grinding down with your hand, for lack of a better term, your gold loss would be high. Also do you design equipment at all? 😊

    The pan idea is nice. But since you had material on the out side edges and yet didn't show anything out there I can assume it was lost. I would look at getting one if it was concave, not by much mind you, may be 165' instead of the flat 180' I see there. Good tip today though. Thanks for the all the hard work as always MUH-MAN!

    I just can't see how that flat gold pan works! At least no very well! You have to be losing gold when you fill it so I'll and then shake the snot out of it under water. Just my opinion, everybody else do what you want.

  • @mountainmanxyz
    @mountainmanxyz 23 วันที่ผ่านมา

    I'm convinced you're losing most of the fine gold in that pan. Clay-rich with too much variation in particle size and without pre wetting the material, it's pretty much a guarantee. You could use a 5 gallon bucket and classifier set to fix this. Sift the material, wash off any rocks into the bucket (save the rocks to inspect with a metal detector later), add extra water with dish soap (or jet dry) to break water tension, break up the dirt in the bucket and stratify by vigorously mixing and shaking the bucket. Then you can scoop layers of dirt out of the bucket and discard it, and only pan the bottom 6 - 8 inches.

    Hi Chris, I love when you do the exploring videos.
    It reminded me of a TH-cam short I saw (th-cam.com/users/shortsHKdjIFjYZ40) and I was wondering if you could do some more exploring to see if you could find evidence of these types of river deviations 🤔🙂

    Now That gave me a Woody Bog(¡)us !! I really pissed myself off today...about $600 of gold I got from my miller table in a few days of playing with it & had to go work on my car when a friend came over today...when I went to clean up I turned the tray over & FORGOT TO TAKE OFF THE 2 VIALS...the problem? Some I found mercury in, now it's contaminated! I'm waiting to watch how You reclaim it with Almagum, maybe....I'll give my idea a try & watch your way too.

      You just need a basic retort. Google is your friend.

      @VoGusProspecting thanks Chris, my dad a welder made a mercury still but when I got hurt in the '90s he gave it to his friend another prospector...I can use a raw potato SAFELY. What I was thinking 🤔 is if I use my rock tumbler to almagum because just shaking my concentrates doesn't collect all the gold when I use water with it...when I try only sands & gold I'll let you know how it works out. I'm still finding strange meteorites to send in my package to you..
      Your winter is my summer & they'll give you something cool to investigate.

      ​@@James-fi6rvthere's nothing particularly safe about burning mercury unless you have a retort. Furthermore, Mercury is expensive and why burn it off into the atmosphere if you can reclaim and reuse it? It's because of people's misuse that has gotten it banned in most places.

      @mountainmanxyz I Don't burn it off into the atmosphere man, in a raw potato wrapped in foil with wire turns the potato yellow and I mash it to reclaim the mercury to pan back out.!. 😋 I've had a couple pounds of mercury for a few decades & even though a pound sucked into my body when I was a kid 50 years ago I've found that it oxidizes Aluminum that this environment let's free that contributed to Alzheimers...how can I be crazy when your comments show up on my Gmail say 'Jesus Christ replied to your comment ' ??¿¿!!!

      @mountainmanxyz I just got 400mL Nitric acid from my chemistry ⚗️ friend from microprospecting site, now I can dissolve Hg & the acid turned into H2O2 & oxygen & I can dump the mercury into another container & reconstitute it with hydrochloride later...either way, yours or my 2 it's safe

    I love all you do Chris, but the background music in the beginning is as loud as your voice and SUPER annoying and blo0dy awful.. like you're on hold on the phone with Telstra.
    It repeats and repeats and does not fit your vibe at all.
    The music in the final bit was much better.. but normally I would have bailed early on because my neuroD brain can only take so much.
