@@michaelbyrnes1822 With spinal disc degeneration failures no luck in doing one sit up as the trouble is not muscle at which your talking about. Tear a muscle rebuild it stronger does not work for these people.

I agree with you. Same age, my back mess going ejection seat training over period of 13 years. Plus major auto wreck I was a passenger.for about three weeks I couldn’t walk was Paralyzed from waist down. This happened 1996-7. My lady, her damage was from me being slammed into her. Seat be,t scar across my chest from right shoulder to left hip. I got pretty broke up. Pelvic broke in 7 places, my tail bone three places, ribs on right all were broke collar bone right side broke in three place compound fracture, mod to severe head fracture concussion . Then I didn’t know me. But they had my ID. Lost my front upper teeth. 5000 dollars to repair and fix. Now I just hurt all over. But Jason I real enjoy watching you have the fun. Like to see more of Washington state mountains and trees. Lost my eye sight in Vietnam
It used to bug me that he would explain the entire process each time he'd display these machines, until it finally dawned on me that is the purpose of this whole channel, to showcase his products. So now I enjoy listening to this very long commercial.
Roast your ore, follow up with quenching in water, run through the system, collect the concentrates, dry and roast the concentrates with carbon on top, then smelt with the equivalent of chapman flux with a little extra borax as a thinner. I guarantee that will yield an ideal smelt with no matt layer and instead of using nails. Use one large flat piece of steel for better surface area. Try it Jason it will work!
Shouldn't he season the crucible with borax before its first use as well? The inside was covered in a coarse layer of material after the pour. That process also makes the crucible last longer.
@@DonariaRegiaDepends on the manufacturer. Some preseason the crucibles for you, you should be able to see if the crucible needs to be seasoned by looking at the inside of the crucible. If the manufacturer says to season it, or tells you that it doesn't need to seasoned; then follow what they say to do.
just a tip; rename series to just "My Gold Mine". i always see the opening and it makes me think im rewatching a video lol love your content thank you and God bless
Dude, nice job sticking with it. What a frustrating pour and I don't even know the end result yet but it looks like you got through it. One thing is evident, what a laborious process for an ounce of gold at today's value. That may change soon. You've shown what can be done but without other sources of income, you'll go broke doing it unless you can really streamline the operation and if there's enough vein ore to remove. For entertainment and educational value this is top notch! Hey Discovery channel! This guy is the real deal with no made up drama! Just real life drama.
My timing was perfect. I started watching this series yesterday and watched them all. When I get up this morning I find that the last episode had just been uploaded. Timing is everything
Not sure if anyone has mentioned this, but if you're slabing gold ore in the oil saw, you should check the rock slurry after awhile to see how much free gold was "cut" out of the rocks!
That had to be stressful as hell!! Glad you figured it out. I ordered a bag of the ore last month and a bag of the new crushed ore last night! Excited to try my hand at panning some hard rock crush! Thanks Jason
This was such a beautiful experience in metallurgy, seeing you struggle and still get the pure gold in the end was a real treat. Thank you Jason! The crystalline appearance of the bead was such a fantastic bonus, I didn't even know gold could do that under those conditions. That's a keeper!
Congratulations! It's excellent that you don't edit out the bumps along the road to getting the gold. It's an honest look at how so many things can go wrong and how you just keep trying until you solve the issues. Love this channel.
We Love your Mining Videos and GOLD! I have a University of North Carolina Degree in Geology! But I live at the beach So I don't get to see much Mining other than TH-cam! Keep up the Good Work...
I looked through a lot of the comments but did not see anyone who has bought a bag of the rock ore comment on what they found, I have gone through maybe half a bag and only found 1 or two barely visible gold flakes but more under magnification, the material needs to be crushed into a flour then hand panned, I found the gold washed away in the blue bowl and even hand panning required multiple times but there is gold and its so fine it can't be seen until it collects together in the pan. I took a couple rocks and cut and polished them and that's pretty cool some of the sulfides look like tin foil and others have a bronze look. I hope my purchase keeps these videos coming .
Hi Jason, If you took the high silica tailings and mixed them with a high-strength cement then use it for cement countertops from gold ore with a few specimen pieces inserted and then polished would sell extremely well and the tailings already are the very best cement sand
Just wanted to say that I appreciate the art aspects of gold recovery as much as the physical challenges of minning. I am a local fan. Went to WWU. I know the Bellingham area well. Love to chat about the Oroville area some day. Do you ever do an events?
I have a dumb question maybe. I looks to me like when the chemical process works correctly, there is a visual pattern in the way the liquid cools that is made. I don't know if anyone else understands but as you look at the cone mold as the liquid slag/metal cools, there is like a spider web pattern that occurs you can see? I might just be crazy?
What an amazing adventure Jason. Thank you for sharing it with all of us. I watch constantly, but don’t comment often. This series was worth talking about. I can’t wait for next season. Keep up the good work.😎😎😎😎😎
I just "binge-watched" all 17 videos for your amazing gold mine adventures, and I can't thank you enough for taking us with you, not only when you brought your mine up to par, but improved on it, as well! Start to finish, I was hooked! Thanks for all of your outstanding how-to videos, Jason; you're the best!
I know every ore, and concentrate is different. But I've had the best success roasting first, Then smelting with a 3:1 flux/concentrate mix, with a flux with litharge. I have tried several different mixtures without the litharge and I consistently get a lot more gold from the litharge flux. I've found that even some of the pours that didn't have any matte, still recovered far less gold in side by side smelts with the same concentrate than the litharge flux. Great video though, because it does show how difficult the process can be!
Mmmm, more lead in the environment. There are no safe levels of lead, and when you use the litharge technique you burn off and produce a lot of lead oxide which then gets everywhere in the environment. EPA laws around lead are very strict. Lead smelters for example are required to use air scrubbers, and surfaces in and around the plant must be regularly tested.
That’s the biggest gold button I have seen produced thus far on your channel! Holy Cow! That’s great. And hopefully people buying stuff off eBay understand it’s a novelty, for fun, not a scam to make you rich. You have clearly been successful through good old geologic knowledge and hard work. 🏴
I have some glass with some stuff looks exactly like this stuff from a large vein rock I found from my mine. Haven't been able to figure out how to get the gold to drop. I think what you did is what I need to do. Jason you rock. I'm gonna be rolling when this works. I think I'm gonna do the hcl 10% first then add some sand like I saw in the comments followed by some Potassium nitrate.Gonna do it all. I love your videos, keep up the good work!
Love watching you work through the entire process from source material to final product. It has to be the best 8-hour long advertisement for MBMM! Incredible!
Yes! I'm so happy to finally see the conclusion if your hard work! Please keep it coming man you guys keeping the dream alive is the best thing on TH-cam
Glad you solved the case of the missing gold, been waiting for this episode. More AU in season two is my prayer for you Jason... Thanks for the entertainment! ⛏⚒⛏
Happy to see a golden conclusion to all your effort, with bonus crystal structure that looks super cool. As others do, I like seeing the whole process, the experiments are probably annoying for you to have to do, but it is enjoyable to watch.
Jason, glad you got it going and getting the "SHINEY" from your miney😂 Lots of work so windering if youve done a time cost study with the 1 ton vs 1 oz gold & costs of it... 😊😊
Have you tested for platinum group metals? I was thinking if there were those high melt temp precious metals in there it could give you problems smelting.
I think you didn’t have enough silica. Your early slags were not very glassy. They probably got saturated with sulfur. That left iron in the metal phase, that formed iron metal or magnetite. Your later slags were glassy and behaved well.
Curious on your #2 buckets there Jason. Would it be effecient to pre roast before smelting with flux? Could this help save on some flux in process and smelting time? Thanks for sharing PS: I've had some interesting results by letting it "rust" in water over time and also: 7x purified by fire which is a pain in the butt...works also. * Not very effecient...
AHHHH. FINALLY! Tell me you didn't wait all this time to do this. I would have not been able to wait more then a week to find out what's in those rocks.
I love the way you never fail to give the technical details. I'm so excited to see what you get from this run! [resumes watching] I think my favorite part is watching your pet lava seethe in the cone. What a tough run, but that crystalized puck at the end is SO WORTH IT. A specimen piece tbh
What an amazing journey. Thanks for the opportunity to be part of it. I live down in Everett and this makes me want to head into the Cascades (although if picked up some cool metal rich pieces in the Olympics). Some of your videos also make my back hurt just watching the mucking process. 😀
Glad that’s your problem and not mine, and glad you’re sharing the experience with us. You might have figured out why the previous mine operator walked away?
Jason, was wondering if you have gone down the rabbit hole of glass science? I think you could benefit greatly from even a quick dip. A great resource is the Corning Museum of Glass and the Salem Or school of glass. CMoG is awesome and the staff is so welcoming.
1TOz per ton seems like a lot of work for a relatively small amount of gold - was this the full spread of the vein or just the high grade section? (have you kept the high grade for a separate crush and smelt?)
Hey Jason, Very glad to see another video posted. This was quite different from previous videos about smelting to find the final product. I hope you also learned something from this unusual experience. See ya on the next video Take Care
I hope the fast cash influx of ebay samples during the season combined with youtube money makes it viable to mine during the short season and process the ore in the winter after the mine closes for winter. Looking forward to next season. Cant wait to see how much you can tske out when starting with a rehabbed mine.
Maybe ask Sreetips for some suggestions regarding handling separation issues? I still think you, Dan and he would make for a really interesting combo series!
I like the fact that you don't edit out all the failures and show people that things aren't always easy. Congratulations on your success.
Little understood (except to the Tommy Knockers) that hard rock mining is as much "Art" as science. One reason that the Cornish miners were so successful in the Mother Lode.
The failures are sometimes the most interesting to watch.

Been waitin a long time for this video. Woot Woot the FEVER!
Thanks for the show! I’ve been enjoying the gold in my bag of ore.
Light snowpack so far this year, might get up there sooner than you think!
Good job Jason. I hope after the helicopter portage off the mountain was Recovered that wasn't cheap. Great video
My man fought hard for that ounce of gold. That piece is worth more than its weight in gold!
What a journey. Thanks for taking us for the ride!

It is always interesting to watch the recovery process, and to see the re-thinking, and fine tuning required, to recover the metal.
wow that crystal structure on the gold was beautiful great work brother

Give the man some credit for Pete sakes
Nice job, Jason. I had an ore like that last year, that did the same thing on me. I think I'm going to try what you did
Fantastic recovery on that smelt . Great video and many thanks for showing us your process for gettin the gold .
@7:30 "That's what the number two looks like." I would tend to agree. :)
😆 good one !
Did you also go back and get the stuff that was stuck to the nails you had originally put in there too?

I really enjoyed this mining operation and would love to see more of this type of content for sure..
My wife and I are both rockhounds, and she wants one or two of those slabs with visible gold in them. Off to eBay I go!
The wait has been tremendous!
Yeah it's been too long since he took the gold out of the mine .
He sold a lot on ebay and Jason may not have had the equipment ie new spiral concentrater.
Have you tested for platinum group metals? I was thinking if there were those high melt temp precious metals in there it could give you problems smelting.

Thanks for sharing PS: I've had some interesting results by letting it "rust" in water over time and also: 7x purified by fire which is a pain in the butt...works also. * Not very effecient...
I was thinking the same thing. Might want something a bit larger from the Goodwill store, though!
AHHHH. FINALLY!

Tour always on a great adventure, i love the video's 👊🏼👊🏼
Putting in the work (4letterword) to overcome the difficulties and produce the final piece is fulfilling. Well worth the effort, and viewing.

Nice to see this happening now been waiting thanks for the video
Wow! You picked a pretty rainy day to pour into your cone mold.
Jason, was wondering if you have gone down the rabbit hole of glass science? I think you could benefit greatly from even a quick dip. A great resource is the Corning Museum of Glass and the Salem Or school of glass. CMoG is awesome and the staff is so welcoming.
1TOz per ton seems like a lot of work for a relatively small amount of gold - was this the full spread of the vein or just the high grade section? (have you kept the high grade for a separate crush and smelt?)
Yay! Good for you! 1 Ounce per ton is profitable so long as you can closely control your costs. And who knows what the future may bring?
Three cheers Jason! Great result... we're waiting for season two - for sure!!
Awesome job love the hard work cheers 🇨🇦
Hey Jason,
Very glad to see another video posted.
This was quite different from previous videos about smelting to find the final product.
I hope you also learned something from this unusual experience.
See ya on the next video
Take Care
Good job!
I hope the fast cash influx of ebay samples during the season combined with youtube money makes it viable to mine during the short season and process the ore in the winter after the mine closes for winter. Looking forward to next season. Cant wait to see how much you can tske out when starting with a rehabbed mine.
Well done Jason all the hard work paid off, and now ya can get a hundred tones out in the summer buddy good luck
I've been waiting for this! Thank you Jason!
Hey how did you get that finish on the top of that button?? That was amazingly kewl.. I want it lol
I am thinking , when you change the oil in your rock saw , there should be some gold in there. Congratulations on that big bead .
Woo Hoo the gold isn't aging in the ore anymore !!! : )
super interesting episode! even with the issues, it definitely made it more exciting and interesting
Wow! That was a rollercoaster ride! So satisfying to see that ounce of shiny. Well done Jason!
I love a good mystery, this is a very expensive one! Keep on keeping on!!
That is frickin awesome! I've really enjoyed the journey starting from rehab to a kick ass button of shiny goodness 😍! Awesome job, Jason!
It’s always great watching the gold recovery.
What a conundrum!
Mining curve balls. Lol
Thanks Jason 🙏
Maybe ask Sreetips for some suggestions regarding handling separation issues? I still think you, Dan and he would make for a really interesting combo series!
You mentioned earlier that Iron Pyrite is present in the mine so maybe it was what was providing the iron that made it magnetic?
Great video showing gold recovery equipment and gold recovery, thanks!
You are an awesome man, Jason! You find time to go help everyone! An awesome awesome man. Thinking about that, your family, wife and kids love you !!
16:47 I was yelling "it was stuck to the nails at the bottom of the crucible!"
Love that show when it doesn’t go your way and that your still learning something new every time pretty cool
