Would you ever do a video in Canada? Maybe you could get permission to do one of your videos at a big mine in Northern Ontario. I live in Northern Ontario in the "Blake River Mega Caldera". We have many gold mines operated by companies such as Agnico Eagle, Glencore, Alamos, Newmont, and several others. I would love to see a few long videos on our local mine geology with your input. Thanks for the great content.
Jeff, You need to team up with me for dowsing gold on this calfera to pinpoint and map all of the high and low grade that is either exposed or especially if buried without being exposed on the gold systems. I can dowse depth buried to the gold and most important is I can grade the deposited gold locations with dowsing high grade helicoptering to medium grade helicoptering to low grade turning or slight energizing with just a trace.
@@johnramirez5032 I live in Spain and prospecting for gold is not allowed without a company with licence etc. Most gold bearing areas are on protected land and, quite honestly, most available gold was taken many, many years ago, like two or three thousand!. That's why I love watching Jeff. And yes, I watch youtube sitting on the couch ha-ha.
I like in his videos when he has panned some new dirt, and a small amount appears usually under magnification, and we hear "oh yeah"! Wish I was watching Jeff's videos when I was much younger and enjoyed hiking, but we didn't have computers or smart(dumb) phones or Google Maps/Earth. Just Libraries and books.

While I enjoy Jeff's videos on a Saturday morning with a cup-o-joe immensely also, I disagree that there is nothing better. You gotta get a lady friend though.
Jeff, thank you for all of the years of education and smiles. I have learned so much from you over the years, and just wanted to express my appreciation and gratitude. YOU are the real gold nugget my friend.
Well Jeff I do believe if you had been one of my geology professors, my life path would of been far different. Thank you for all you teach us. A little late for me turned 69 today
Thanks, that is the best caldera video I have seen. It allows the mind to visualize what words have a more difficulty to vision in the mind's eye. The mind's eye is also used with dowsing for visioning of what is being dowsed.
It blows my mind 🤯 how much you know regarding geology Jeff! Even the flowers are yellow as gold! Great stuff, wish I could remember a tibbit of it, but that's what happens when old-timers sets in! 😂 Keep it happening brother! 💪⛏️⚒️⚖️🤠
Hey Jeff, another great video, so much information I went from not having a clue about the different types of rocks to now having a understanding of what you’re trying to teach us, and talk about living the dream you’re definitely doing it for me and a lot of you’re Patreon’s as well. !
I never stop learning from Jeff's videos. My (albeit pleasant) non-bearing panning days in the creeks have turned into producing small amounts of shiny 😃. Gold fever baby!
I've never had a teacher more Excellent ! That time-released explanatory percolatin' pseudomorphin' mock calderable collapsing mashed potatoes were pseuperb !! Thank you for the awesome visuals ! ❤❤
Jeff, You know, you have got to be the most informative geologist I've ever even heard of on the internet. I have a question though and you are definitely the one to ask. PLEASE PLEASE PRETTY PLEASE Can you do a video on the 1799 gold rush back East in the Blue Ridge Mountains. There are gigantic quartz deposits between the Carolinas and Virginia. I've panned a few spots and estimated that the assay is somewhere around 1-2 grams per ton on the eastern slopes of these quartz structures. Can you elaborate, Please. Thank you.
@@Askjeffwilliams That is awesome! Thank you so much. I've been panning in culverts and streams just off the main roads and found modest placer deposits right where they should be. Now, I wish I could get in there with a dredge, but I don't think I am getting the permits for that. But I can pan all I want as long as I don't trespass. So, LET'S GO!
Love this video ! Amazing geologic features. I wonder if the Old-timers knew what they were seeing as a collapsed caldera, or just happen to stumble across these outcrops while traveling through the area ? I would love to see a geologic video of the cutaway features along Hwy 93 between Hoover Dam and Willow Beach. ❤ As always, we smashed that LIKE button real hard !! 👍👍👍
thanks my brother ..... yes I am sure there were a few field Geologists that knew what they were looking at .... now that would be a very interesting video to make .....thanks again my brother
I had Lead Abatement Supervisor class all last week. I passed my exams and I am now licensed in MN as a lead abatement supervisor. Thanks for sharing with us Jeff 🤠 God Bless 🙏 More Hazmat training.
I wouldn't mind seeing you do a video of the Roxbury pond area of Maine. I swear if to zoom out on Google maps of that lake of terrain layer you'll see an impact crater heavily eroded, but I don't think it's ever been identified as 1 yet because I belive it was apart of the younger dryess impact event.
14:33 The beauty of arid regions, when a good rain comes, everything rushes to produce the seeds for the next generation. The bees and insects just go nuts over the plenty.
Most educational. I live about 40 miles from Mount Rainier, and have often wondered about what might be below my feet other than glacial till. Your buddy Jason at MBMM seem to do OK 150 miles North of me. There's gold in them thar hills!!
You are one of my favorite teachers! Great job. After ten years, Ask Jeff Williams, has helped me realize that mining is not easy! It takes a lot of time, deducation and integration to learn the land and the lingo. So you know what I'm gonnq' say ...😎🗽♥️♥️🐦Stay cool!🗻
Living in the Mojave Desert is a rock hounds delight. Not just for precious metals and gem stones but other rocks that have either been spewed out or was exposed by the elements over time can be polished up for your own enjoyment or to make things with. And few people realize how volcanically active this area was, though I should say IS since there is a hot springs in the apple valley hills (Bowen Ranch), and I know the mighty mojave is plenty deep so for that trickle to get heated tells me theres still melted rock fairly close to the surface. I can deal with the ground under my feet shaking alot better than I can the air I breathe actively trying to kill me with a tornado or hurricane.
Have you ever toured Rio Tinto's Bingham Copper Mine (Kennecott Copper) in SLC, UT? Apparently, they recover ~400,000 ounces of gold and ~4,000,000 ounces of silver every year.
Bro im telling you! These educational videos keep the enthusiasm, appeal to a wider audience, and are just damn interesting. Nothing is more interesting than a subject taught by a passionate teacher. They naturally highlight the cool parts and have thought about it enough to clearly explain/ provide examples.
Love your content man was out at east fork san gabriel today found some fines:) nothing to retire on but adding to the pile in the vial:) keep the videos coming!
From one prospecting jack-ass to another.....and my name is Jeff as well........love your videos! Great added touch showing those cool wild jack-asses at the end! Are they our cousins? LOL --Jeff from Michigan
I and my wife drove to the Blackhills my wife loves rocks I picked up some and took them home as I was watching your youtube I was looking at them and found gold the.
the Cyanide is the last process in these mines...many more before that happens and the leach fields last for years..worked in Nevada gold mines..including Winnemucca
What a wealth full of knowledge..! I have a book 📖 written by Geologists Jeff Williams.. seems you both have the same knowledge..!!! LOL HOPEFULLY.. next Friday I go to Victoria to get some Shinny for my self..!! Won’t to come mate..!! So come on let’s GO.!! Say hi 👋 to Lila. Cheers Tony.. 👍⛏️🍻

thats the virginia dale mining district. off the 62 by 29palms ca.
Blue chalcedony is soo cool looking. I’ve come across a few good ones I wanna find more
yes it is
If any of my teachers had approached geology through a lens of gold mining, I'm sure my classmates would all have been miners.
My personal belief is this is one of the most important models of deposition. At least for some impressively rich veins.
I agree

Hey Jeff that was great can't wait to find gold
I and my wife drove to the Blackhills my wife loves rocks I picked up some and took them home as I was watching your youtube I was looking at them and found gold the.

Great information.
Hey Jeff, what do think about people leaving their "calling cards" and crap in the old mines they explore???
we see it alot
Whats better , buying a claim or buying property with mineral rights? Are the property taxes different if the zoning isnt residential?
buying a Patented mining claim
Good morning from Southeast South Dakota
