The amount of knowledge you have reguarding geology and mining is always impressive to see...Should I be worried!? 👊😁
pioneer pally You should make collaborations some time with Jeff. And you should title your video " The vampire miner meet the cowboy miner." lol! Just kidding bro
yup! we love him.......
You want that Canadian AU BOY... Pay 10 dollars a month to Jeff Williams and Slim and be in like flinn sunny Jim...
Love ya Pauly, I had to make a little joke
The collaboration sounds like a great idea👍
nope ....just join in the madness and get that Shiney....
Best Heavy Metal Music/Gold Prospecting Video combined EVER!! 🤠🤣
This was going to be my last video before bed. Start playing it and Iron Maiden blasts out and gets me pumped. Jeff you are aces.
Thanks Jay ...nighty night.
Jeff, you pan like a madman....wait, you are a madman....😘
thats me
That's cool! You already did a show on it. I found a spot east of San Bernardino i think is going to be promising. Very secluded and right off the road.
Great work Jeff what a beautiful place thanks for sharing.
Never gets OLD!!!---- or always gets GOOLLLLLLLD!!!!
And son annnnddddd
Great video Jeff. I used to maintain all the roads in Lytle Creek for many years. Only found a speck but always on the lookout.
Very cool.... my family uses to go up there camping back in the 70's...
Ventura County has gold as well on Piru Creek and Muta Creek. There are active gold mines on Frasier Mountain as well. There was a small gold rush there just prior to the gold discovery at Sutter Mill. A small town grew along Piru Creek, but immediately failed as the region was overshadowed. Some say it was due to a curse by the Spanish on the area. Apparently the Spanish had a rich gold mine there, but had to abandon it when Mexico gained it's independence. They sealed it up and cursed it. The are also has the Lost McDonald Mine, another fabled rich find. I recommend checking it out and looking deeper into the lore around the gold in the Los Padres NationalForestq, I greatly summarized it.
Where is muta creek or the mcdonald mine?
Mutual creek
Mutau
I’m going to Piru this week is there anything work looking for?
Love the video you're crazier than ever in this one I just laughed the whole way through it not to mention it's great info thanks Jeff

Texas To California this is the first video I’ve seen! You made me grasp a hobby and made me a believer. Thank you sir William! I will be mining with your knowledge and experience when I get up there this January!🤘🏽🤘🏽
Glad to hear it
Jeff you are my personal hero. My old man and I watch you and always chime in when it’s time too... “LETTTTTS GO”
I found my first batch of quartz bearing gold two weeks ago working on extracting but being with limited resources I’m still trying to figure out how to diy extract.
Luckily my hubby works in a machine shop and one of his coworkers is a patreon of yours and now that I have materials to show I know what to look for I’m getting support from these guys who are excited about my finds!
Learning it all from you though, I’m able to identify the indicators and have come upon some interesting minerals.
So continuously watching your videos is my own personal geology class! Father in law is actually getting the detector you recommend
Spending the day in Piru today the water level is low and we just had an earthquake so I’m gonna put your lessons to use again and refreshing my knowledge you’ve so generously imparted.
Thank you for being the BEST and only geologist gold specialist I will watch on here.
Wish me luck please!
And I know what makes you a madman it’s the GOLLLLLDDDDD. I got the fever SONNNN
Oh I found my load in Death Valley
If you have any words and experience with piru would love to get some feedback. Love ya Jeff. LETTTTS GOOOOOO
thanks great ....we always love hearing that ....yep that Shiney will do that to ya and keep us posted
Very instructive as always

CALIFORNIA GOLD RUSH locals only
@@CarlosRodrigues-zn8gh I'm not a local lol. That was started from a few trying to kick me off an area I was working.
Pretty cool used to pan and play in Lytle Creek when I was a kid. Gold all over the mountains around there.
Thanks for the info I appreciate it
I love you Jeff, your videos are as good as tv shows, been watching for about 4 years.. Learnt from your channel. You are incredibly intelligent, I remember you saying you didn't want to do the mammoth tv show but I've seen you on tv before, hope to see Jeff William's show someday.
Much love from England brother. Everyone I know who pans knows who you are, truly respected!
Keep at it! :-)
Thanks Jeff. I always enjoy your videos. I live and work in Korea and am going to use your advice to pan around the mountains and see what I can find.
you betcha Tall.....keep us posted.
I used to go up to lytle creek all the time just to get out of the city when I was a teen. Loved it up there . Thank you bud brought back good memories when I wasn't all broken.
you betcha
This video brings back memories. As a kid, I hiked the heck out of all those canyons in the early 70's. Use to come across a few Marijuana plants and their owners processing them. Guess you didn't find any of that Jeff ? In less they weren't worried about you finding their Gold in the beginning of the video, they were running you off from their plants. Lol...
Nice! Love going up there. It was crazy busy during the summer though.
Hi Jeff, Great video. It's been years since I've been up there, and even back then there was too much shooting for my likes, still it's great information and interesting. Take care my busy friend. Hope to you guys soon.
thanks ....was wondering if you guys were still around.......yep they are shooting like it was a contest...thanks and same here.
This dude makes me laugh so hard I start choking. Subscribed.
Awesome. ✊️
Great heavy metal intro from Iron Maiden !!!
Great place to gig and pan for gold.
Thanks CR
thanks
I love all your videos, you the man Jeff keep that stuff coming
thanks and we will.
Jeff, all that running! You'll have to run up to Northern California and visit us at the Original Sixteen to One Gold Mine in Alleghany, CA.
Jeff, while driving the other day I had an idea that I think might be a decent, simple way to separate gold, silver, or platinum. Basically a sharp cone open at the wide end, at the top, filled with water. Suspend the cone with a light automotive coil spring. Attach a slightly oval pulley to the side of the cone, and another pulley to the frame of the sorter. Run a belt between the pulleys.
Dump in shovels full of dirt, and then turn the pulley. A motor would be best, but you could do it with a windmill, exercise bike, or by hand.
The oblong pulley wheel would jiggle and shake the whole cone full of dirt and water. Heavy material would settle.
Every now and then, just shovel the least dense dirt out of the top, then add more unsorted dirt.
Eventually, you would end up with a large mass of the densest materials at the bottom of the cone.
Have you ever seen a separator like that? I suppose a dry separator could work on the same principle, but I imagine that the water displacement of lighter minerals would help separate low and high density materials.
I also imagine that a heavy brine solution might be even better for separation.
I have no way to test this, and all I know about gold mining comes from TH-cam videos. Figured I would poke you and see if you had any thoughts.
I love this intro! Great job on editing
thanks for the vid really entrusting and cool
Always entertaining. Great channel
Hey Jeff! It's me Dave. Brother I haven't seen this video in a long time I'm going to go look at your new ones but, you always crack me up when I watch this video, and I agree with pioneer Paulie, not only do you have a wealth of knowledge, but you have the biggest heart in all of the West end of this country
Thanks Dave ....
hey Jeff! Brian and bubbles here. Thats where i got the gold mine fever at, was right there! Used to live not too far down the road! Glad to see you up there! Looking forward to another one of your trips soon! So Come on, Lets go!!

Ask Jeff Williams
🤠👍🍺🍺
Iron Maiden Hell Yeah! Great video Jeff
Use to have that album on vinyl, and I wore out the grooves on that sucker.
I knew the location before you said it ! Haha! That’s where I go prospecting! Was blown away to see you there in the video! Was blown away to see running water! Last time I was there walked across entire canyon and it was dry as a bone! I’m still learning very new to prospecting. And lack of free time. Loved the video intro! And as you mentioned checking online for the open areas. Been a challenge to take it from satellite view to in person in the ground.
thanks and you will get it......yep you have to get boots on the ground.
Blue Cut was the place I found my very first piece of shiny ! Back in 1976. Contracted Gold Fever and have yet to find a cure ! Thanks for sharing this fun video Jeff !
ALLAN !!!!! good place to find some Shiney ...huh....wow you have had the fever almost as long as me....there is no cure my friend but more Gold eases it down a little.... and you betcha
Do you think there’s gold in the dry portion from when the river was much wider or only the current active river?
@@wannamikeout if we're talking about Blue Cut, not much has been found on open channel. There's a narrow channel with rock wall on each side. It's kind of a natural sluice box. Best concentration of gold is there, fairly low grade.
@@allansgoldmining Thanks for the reply Allan! I will have to try that spot, I’ve tried others and I’ll find a few specks in the pan but it doesn’t seem to be too consistent. Way cool that you took the time to respond! Best wishes 🤙
@@wannamikeout you betcha and best of luck !
Great video! Thanks for sharing.
you betcha Stan.
Dang Jeff. Another area that I know so well. You are by the West end Gun Range off Lytle Creek Road. . I was rock hounding there last year with my family and my dogs splashing in the water. Fun times. I will have to check it when I go visit my family in Ontario. Keep up the good work...SON!!
dude, ive seen 10 seconds of your video so far and i can already tell i like ya.... lmao
yeah, just kidding...
Best intro !💥
Super inspiring. Thank you Jef
you betcha.
Hello Jeff. i really enjoy your videos. i am new to California gold prospecting and desert prospecting. trying to prospect the otay mountain area (dulzura area) since it is near my house. do you have any advice for finding gold out in that area.
Hahaha the funniest intro ever!
Thx for the tips jeff. Great to have u up here I missed slim tho.
me too hahahahha
Jeff you have so much information and knowledge about prospecting. I I think you should have your own TV show on History Channel I think people would love it. you could teach so many people of our younger generation about the life of a prospector and how the old times were keep up the good work Jeff you are an inspiration for many years to come and many people to come after you thank you for your wisdom and knowledge I hope someday that you hit the motherload you deserve it keep digging Jeff.✌🍀
thanks and we have been offered a few shows but they wanted us to do things that even Slim said " No " to.
@@Askjeffwilliams I love your show, keep up the good work My friend.
I like your videos! Thanks
Great video thanks Jeff.
you betcha Tammy
Amazing, this show never stops getting better and better and better. And more informative. And the intro music makes it all just exceptional. At the top, the golden metal with Jeff & Slim & Lila & The Crew.
Thank You So Much !!
Thanks My Friend.... you betcha
I needed something to amp me up today!
well then ...here ya go Tammy
Finally! It's like waiting for Game of Thrones this show!
got some vids coming out that will knock your socks off
You are just having to much fun Jeff 😂😂😂
Oh Yeah !!!!!!
great vids bro.!!!
Thanks
Drool. Everywhere I've been tocheck in Washington was already claimed than where I think their just might be ends up flour gold. Alot of work for that stuff. Your vids sir are always informative. Thank-you
you betcha
New to your TH-cam Channel. You seem like a pretty Awesome guy Jeff. I am really enjoying your videos, very educational. I wonder if you've prospected on the East Coast at all ?
Thanks Zack and Yes we have
jeff, you're so funny and crazy !!!!
i' m gonna get some of this Cascade - Oregon gold soon and invite you up here and make a really crazy video together !!!
you don't know me yet, but you will this summer of 2022! hahahaha you ole crazy miner !
That would be cool!
That addit at the hematite outcropping turnout is still there. Checked it out yesterday on the way to the [last remaining] GPAA claim up there. No way my 6-2/220 trained coward body was going into that hole. Crushed up a few samples from the area for nodda, but it was really cool to see. Only a trickle of water this time of year but getting out in the dirt for a while was still awesome. At the claim in the wash, found a few specks of flour down DEEP. Nothing shallow. Had better luck with a few small flakes in the canyon on the north corner of the claim. Area's been worked to death but definitely worth the trip for local GPAA members. Bring good gloves and shoes. Broken glass and shell casings literally everywhere.
I watch all of your videos. Great stuff. In you opinion is it worth getting a claim on lytle creek? Looking at one directly across the street from the shooting range. Thanks
Hi Randy ...nope there is Gold there but you really have to work that Hiney to get at that Shiney.....
Great entertainment Jeff as always. We mine something in Greenbushes that might help with those crazy voices lol
Would the east fork of the San Gabriel river be able to kayak in?
Thanks for bringing us as my family loves your show..............
you betcha Douglas.
Hey Jeff, any ideas or thought about searching for gold in Anza Borrego Desert near Imperial, California. El Centro, CA or Ocotillo, CA? Do you know the area?
Hey thanks for the shout out that’s Bitchin! Kris and I have been talking about hitting it hard up there. Now is perfect timing with all the rain. Like always great video dude!
Thanks Max and yep you should hit the benches.....keep us posted and get that Shiney....
Great video Jeff
thanks
This answered my question!
ROCKIN OUT In CA!!
Backside of Mt Baldy !!! I’ve found gold there too
great vid jeff you earned sub(: and gold
thanks
You were lucky to find that spec 😆 that area has been hammered for years! I've never found much in that area. For me it's not about the amount but just being out there. But coming home with a few specks is not much fun because I drive an hour to get there so I don't waste gas going to places that don't have much. But you certainly inspire people to get there! I'm ready to get out every day!!!
so you know what I am gonna say huh
@@Askjeffwilliams and yeah I'm gonna get wet! I love that line.
Great video jeff. You just keep bringing it ... book of knoledge.
thanks Mark
Hey Jeff, If you find an a place that has not been claimed are you allowed to prospect it before actually filing a claim or do you have to claim it before you prospect it?
Yes you can prospect it first .
Awesome!!! You're in my neck of the woods :)
He is a live wire ....love the intro Jeff, cool to see you in my old stomping grounds
OH YEAH !!!!
You got a new jacket for Christmas 👍
Yep Slim got it for me in Mexico.
Hay Jeff. been watching for a while now love your style, Had an interesting thought about that closed fences mine Texas hill mine area, ,,so why don't the owners just charge a fee and let people mine it.. does anyone ever do that? let you go mine on their claim? maybe give them a percentage?
Jeff, i always enjoy the new videos. I live in northern Colorado, i can find gold if i am willing to work, but, where i am at we also have kimberlite with known diamond deposits. Do you ever do anything with finding diamonds? I wouldn't know a kimberlite deposit if i busted my shin on it.
nope we don't mess with Diamonds....
Man I live twenty minutes from there. Yeah this video was made three years ago but i feel like i just missed Jeff… bummer. It’s funny cause I go to the range up there all the time and I’m always starring out the window wondering if there’s gold in them hills… thanks for the answer Jeff.
you betcha
I would drive by that Hill everyday when I was younger would never think it was a goldmine thanks for all the information you're pretty smart man
thanks
Jeff you're so awesome dude always love your videos hopefully maybe we can hook up sometime I'm in California as well I want to sign on as a patreon
it would be real easy for you as a Premium Patron as we have outings for them all the time
Your taste in metal (musical and geological) continues to be excellent.
thanks
SO how much invisible gold is/can be in the gossan (sp?). And is it just microscopic particles or chemically bound?
Wondering the same thing. mate.
there can be a lot ...you would need either a Geochem, fire assay or XRF spectrometer to determine that...always go with Free Mil
@@Askjeffwilliams Free MIL? Free mother in Law?
Great introduction using Iron Maiden. A perfect fit :-) and you mentioned Government shutdown. I make this comment during the CoronaVirus shutdown, eeery.
Rock on!
