Lesson 1 - Where Does Gold Come From? Technical Level: Basic
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 25 ก.ค. 2015
- A brief but comprehensive description of how gold ore bodies form and the differences between placer and hard rock gold deposits.
Gold atoms were originally formed by fast neutron capture primarily in neutron star merger supernovae and then incorporated into the nebula from which the solar system condensed.
For the latest theories in understandable detail:

Just found this. 7 years later it`s still one of the best explanations on YT
Thank you
Lol, wow. Are you dumb? Or just slave stupid?
Who else had almost Zero interest in where gold comes from , but started watching this man teach and became very interested in everything he had to say?? his presentation skills are very effective and accessible to us Average Folks. Cheers
Thank you very much for the generous compliment. I try to educate more than entertain. best if I can do both at once.
Me me me
Mee three !
@@That-Bond-Babe The latest theories indicate that the vast majority comes from neutron star mergers instead of core collapse supernovae also. But that takes some serious math and I am just a miner. 🙂
@@hardrockuniversity7283I don't want to take away from the original poster's sentiment, which mine duplicates. But its origin is still far more exciting than, say, a carbon crystalline structure, don't you think?
8 years later and I can still enjoy it and learn something. Thank you very much
You are most welcome. I hope that we will have a lot of interesting content this summer.
@@hardrockuniversity7283 And lots of gold 🤠
Hi Keith, I come from a long line (since 1932) of mediocre successful to completely failed Hard Rock miners in South Australia. My Gold is fine to very fine gold in quartz veins. Thankyou for these lessons, they are in plain language and easy to follow. Please keep up the great work and you keep it safe as well. (PS I love the shooting iron hanging off your hip)
Glad to be of help. Right now the challenge is to recover some extremely fine gold from a mine here in Mantana and I am having to learn and develop new tricks as cyanide leaching is banned in this state. It is going reasonably well so far, but we still have to define and refine the process of recovering the gold from the solution.
Hi . Do you need a worker? I'll fly down there from California. Let me know thanks
Fantastic explanation! I've enjoyed collecting minerals my whole life and have never considered how the minerals form or where the veins came from. Thank you
You are most welcome.
Wow. Love the info.
Great KISS principle video. Love it. My great great grandfather was a Prussian/German scientist who became the Singapore Government mineralogist and he died prospecting for Gold at Lahad Datu in North Borneo. I'm not academic so I appreciate the basic teaching method.
I'm a Tradie and really enjoy this 10 min video.
Thanks very much Mr.
Thank you
Thanks for the video. Most people don't realize how much work it is to get gold.
In my much younger years I used to dredge for gold. Also, I was working toward a mining certificate at Antelope Valley College until they cancelled the program over budgeting before I finished. We went on several field trips, mostly to mines around Mojave, but also trips to the Stanislaus River, Randsburg, and Lockwood Valley. Rick Balough was the instructor for most geology and placer mining classes. Cecil Burton did the hard rock mining portions including fire assaying. His son had a mine near Mojave and another family member had the Tropico Mine in Rosamond. I learned a lot from those classes, and hopefully I contributed something from recounting my first hand experiences. Those were the good 'ol days 35 years ago.
Thank you.
I got my start at the Chemgold (now Glamis Gold) in Imperial County CA. Then I moved to Goldfields Mesquite for another five years.
Well I thank you for this valuable information. I didn't need it to assist me in foraging for gold. I merely need to be able
to tell my grand kids where gold comes from when they ask me. You made me an instant professor.
Glad to help. :-)
Totally agree. Great comment
Super clear explanation that’s easily understood by someone not specifically educated in the field of geology! Thanks! 👍🏻
Yep. I'm a miner, not a geologist. Thanks for the compliment.
Great straightforward explanation in layman's terms! You would have made a great geology teacher!

Greetings Keith! I love your lessons, keep it goin! I'm a relatively new gold prospector currently learning the ropes. Right now all i have is a bucket, gold pan, a screen and a folding shovel, none of that fancy equipment ya got there. lol, one day I'll hopefully be able to expand. (Not gold much in Kansas) Your lessons have really encouraged me to keep going and grow my skills. One thing I like about your approach is that it is objective and logical!
I had just recently this past week spent a few day in Colorado and did some gold panning along the wolf creek pass near South Fork. My biggest struggle was finding the right location to sample along the creek, but I was able to find some specks of gold within my first few tries. Later on I returned to the Cabin and
I became really stoked when I watched lesson 24.Next time I go out there I'll use the tapping technique religiously! I could have probably identified lots more gold using it. For now I'll practice with what I got here in my garage. I did bring some samples with me to help with practice. Anyhow, great videos I'll be going through them thoroughly to help me get better. By the time I get back out there, I'll have some good knowledge! Thanks a whole bunch!!!
Try mud fossil university. A whole new idea.
You're most welcome. There is no substitute for practice.
sorry to tell you you are listening to a lier
1000 percent he dont know wear gold comes from i do....and it amazing when you find out the truth..you are living this mans lies..and you will proberly teach your children his lies..i asked him wear he learned this info from lets see what he says...ill will prove he wrong...and when u find out he is wrong what will you say and think
@@canztee5233 ok then where does it come from curious to hear your answer ? I’m not saying I agree with him. Just curious you never know
HOLY MOLY! I have been visualizing how gold gets to the rivers but never could grasp the concept. But seeing you draw the lava pit and ground water leaching in and under immense heat and pressure sprays through cracks and builds up mineral deposits sort of like a rusty pipe. Thank you my friend! I’m surrounded by volcanos in the PNW time to go looking!
There is gold along the entire west coast. It is spotty though. A local prospectors club can quickly get you lined out on how to find gold in YOUR area.
Great explanation thank you. Other geologists use too many technical words and jargon you kept it basic and well illustrated. Cheers
Thank you. If you want something more detailed and up to date watch the videos I list in this recent video of mine.

@@hardrockuniversity7283 thank you so much! What if the veins are very old petrified huge tree roots? Plants accumulate minerals from deep in the earth and bring them up in their roots etc. Maybe a lightning strike works with this like a type of electrolysis or something. I'm just thinking out of the box, wondering... Especially considering the edges of the vain coincide with where bark would be if it was a thicker root or fallen tree that was buried in mud after the flood.
Love your videos and thank you so much!
I have wondered about how gold was formed and related to volcanoes my whole life. I got it when you drew the first picture. You sir are a great teacher.

This lecture series is fantastic! Thanks! I am new to geology and my passion for natural resources investing led me to desire at least a basic understanding of geology and mining fundamentals.
One thing I want to become proficient at is reading test drill results so I have a competitive advantage when selecting individual mining equities.
I consider geologists valuable people to me since their expertise is what ensures profitability.

Wow, great vid. Informative and succinct.. Thank you.
You are most welcome.
This is an excellent tutorial and I thank you for sharing your extensive knowledge.
Thank you.
My 'extensive knowledge' is more broad than deep I guess. I know a fair amount about a lot of things, which is good to start with. There are a lot of people who know a lot wore about individual specialties. However, that also tends to give them tunnel vision at times.
You know the old saying, 'To a man with a hammer, all problems look like a nail'. I like a more complete tool bax.
Thank you for your service.
Keith
Well, perhaps your "extensive knowledge" might be better described as "practical knowledge" and I'll take the word of someone who has learned by doing before the word of a bookworm. Your explanation makes sense to me and that is practical education. Thanks again.
And thank you for your patriotism. All three of my sons also served in the Marine Corps with 4 combat tours in Iraq total between them. It is good to know that great Americans still appreciate the sacrifice.
Hello Marine,
( A title of honor as you and I both know)
I have been told I have the 'teaching gene' by a friend. I think what that mainly means is that I can put myself in someone else's shoes and also remember what got me confused. I am glad I am presenting the info well, as that is what HRU is all about. I hate people to waste their hard earned time and money when a little info could help so much.
Your sons - Semper Fi cubed!
You and yours have sacrificed so much for me and my children and grand children. So many people fail to realize the strain EVERONE is put through during a combat deployment. Thank them all (and yourself) for me.
At least now we have the internet. But I wonder... Is it better to see one's family when you can't go to them, or is it better to focus on the job at hand? I suppose, like most things, it depends on the person.
I suspect you will be happy to know that my other half has been very busy on the internet the last few months making some significant contributions to the campaign of a certain military supporter we both know. It takes all kinds to keep liberty alive. We are not vets in this house, but we are patriots. She has been working like a demon for months to achieve what she feels is the best for this country, and I honor her too.
Best wishes,
Keith
I gather that you're down in Arizona and I'm up here in NW Wyoming. I spent the last couple of days doing some panning on a creek not too far from Yellowstone, but the gold around here is very fine and very sparse. I did bring home a little gold... and I do mean little, but the real treasure in found in just being out there enjoying the mountains while prospecting. I have been on a mission to learn all I can about gold, gems, and the geology related to them. It's a challenge since geology is a rather complex subject, but little by little, I'm learning. Videos like yours are so valuable to that process and I appreciate the effort you make to present them.
To learn that you and your family are patriots and good people is icing on the cake. Folks like you are the reason that young people serve our country because together we make our nation great. I'm glad our certain military supporter is headed for Washington to drain the swamp so that greatness will be preserved. My 4th grand child is due this week so your wife's efforts are well appreciated and not underestimated one bit. Thank you for your kindness and taking the time to respond. I have already subbed you and will continue to frequent your channel.
God Bless,
Tom
I have a serious recommendation for you. There is a series of videos on TH-cam called 'Ore Deposits 101' that is very good. You will have to pause a fair amount while you look up definitions in another window, but they are easily understandable when you do so and you will learn A LOT! It is a bunch of valuable info in an interesting format. You will enjoy it.
Yep, I'm in AZ. Love the fishing up there but southern Wyoming is incredibly boring to drive through- hours of sage brush and not a single tree! I prefer up by the Montana border. Used to have an uncle in Bozeman - great fly fisherman.
Are you using my panning technique to test for the very fine gold? How is it working for you?
Going to a local anti Trump demo tomorrow for intelligence gathering. Hope we get home on our feet. :-) I live very near down town and the house is already at FPCON Bravo as a precaution.
May God Bless America (and may we deserve it)
Keith
Thank you so much sir for the lectures you are putting on TH-cam. I am a mining engineering student and I love watching your videos. I get a lot more deeper understanding from watching your videos because in class sometimes I get the terminology but you really explain it better.

@@hardrockuniversity7283 Gold comes from dying stars...no?
@@natekeyser9388 The atoms are originally created primarily in Neutron Star Merger events rather than Core Collapse Supernovas according to the latest theories which are WAYYYYYY over my head, but the smart guys seem to agree.
@@hardrockuniversity7283 I believe it is an important, yet little understood profundity, that these "precious metals" gold, silver, platinum, and palladium are all truly EXTRATERRESTRIAL materials and thus are NOT renewable in the inner workings of Earth. I have not met many people that truly comprehend the gravity of this fact. Admittedly we really have no idea of just how much of these precious metals are present on and inside our Earth, but one can assume its likely always going to be a pain to get to it, making it one of if not the best forms of currency.
@@natekeyser9388 I agree with the currency angle. You might investigate the amount of physical gold and silver compared to the amount being carried on paper accounts. Might get interesting...
Came back to this video after concluding my lessons on volcanoes. Where do you think you would be able find gold around recent erupted volcanoes such as Kilauea vs. more explosive volcanoes such as Krakatoa in 1883? Which volcano would have more you think?
I suspect more like subduction zone volcanoes Like the Cascades, but really don't know. I am more of a miner than a theoretical geologist.
wWwWWwwwwwwswwwwwswwws www a wwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww
That would depend on the minerals in that area, I'll bet.
Wrong location ..wro g chemistry.
Come back to those islands after several million years.. then you'll find your gold. Still needs time for precipitation, and then erosion of the rock - unless you're mining a seam.
Excellent, concise and clear.
Thank you
Great video. Thank you for sharing your knowledge
You're welcome.
Hi, fantastic video I really found it helpful in understanding the formation of quartz veins. One quick question, you mention that that the water dissolves the minerals, does this include gold and, if so, how is this so considering gold is not water-soluble?
At high temperatures and with certain ions in the solution, gold IS soluble. We are talking 300 degrees C here and high pressure. Gold is insoluble under normal conditions, rock is also a solid under normal conditions.
I use to strip gold off of computer parts. Hydrogen Cyanide dissolves gold.
Love my gold...
🍺♥️👍
Mudfosil University says the veins are from giants and they had gold in their blood .Lots of gold in the feet also for some reason.
LOL. Thanks!
@@hardrockuniversity7283 See my petri dish Earth vids. I go into things Mudfossil denies.
This is not where gold comes from. This is how gold reach's the surface. Gold is made in exploding stars as is all heavy metals. Diamonds are made in the earth and brought up by volcanos. Very informative as to how gold comes to the surface. Nice and informative. Thanks for posting.
Thank you.
Excellent lesson.
Thank you.
Ancient Indian legends say when the giants fell, you saw them and all living matter with water in them turn to stone! Only those below the surface survived and those survivors watched as all things with water, oceans, trees, man, giants, all that water was ignited and they burned turning to stone. When they fell the natives noted where the giants fell and how! They noted where their legs lay, where the feet were, where the heart was and in the big arteries of the upper legs, the lower legs and feet, and the heart they found quartz, amethyst and gold! Indians say find the giant, see how it lay, follow these spots and dig and you will find gold!
There actually is giants, they were the fallen angels children that mated with humans. Example being the rome or greek 'gods' they were worshipped for having excess abilities and power of the spirit world. Giants are the children of them. Its very true. Thank you for posting that bro and dont mind the haters. They just dont want to learn it will burst their bubble they live in
Indians are nuts!
@Drunk Pirate McHugh VI ? Its in the Holy Bible as well..
And then they hassled a kid in a MAGA hat, and lied about their military service.
Truth Seekers - that’s where the “how” came from. As the Indians would meet new tribes they would raise their hand and count the fingers. Beware of the 6 fingered creature.
noob here, but what i got out of this is how gold is distributed thoughout the earth. i was looking more for how it's created... like a star nova or something. does the earth have the mass/energy etc. to 'make' gold or was it simply deposited here as the earth formed?
thanks!
Gold is synthesized in supernova explosions. The nebula that condensed to form the solar system had such gold in it and that was incorporated into the Earth as it accreted.
Gravity sucks, so believe it or not way down in the Earths core is a mass of molten Gold, that is large enough to cover the entire surface of the earth in a layer of Gold a yard or so high. All the other dense minerals are down there too. If you can remember gravity and density, youre well on the way.
It seems possible. The current theory is an iron core, but fractional stratification of liquids works on the surface and I don't think liquid gold dissolves in liquid iron.
Have a crack at this www.abc.net.au/science/articles/2013/12/03/3903924.htm
Because I am a Christian I don't buy into all the nonsense spewed in this video. I go with Dr. Browns hydro-plate theory. Gold, uranium and such were created by Z-pinch caused by piezoelectric currents in the earth. If as these "scientists" claim that the earth started as a molten mass all heavy elements would be in the center of the earth so how did they get to the surface? I read here one person claims super nova, which is nonsense as there are only a small number of observable supernova remnants visible in the milky way galaxy. Mainstream geological history is total garbage if you take a serious look at it.
Gold is the sweat of the sun. Silver is tears of the moon. Both are real money
Somebody who gets it, nice.

"Gold comes from the sun and stars as radiation." He's talking about spent decay precipitation. "
Google can't seem to find a reference for this phenomenon. Can you briefly explain the theory?
Keith
@@hardrockuniversity7283 The closest theory I know on the idea of gold coming from stars as radiation, is that when a star goes nova, the blast squeezes lighter elements into heavier ones and they must then rain upon the earth as it is forming, then work their way back up to the surface through veins as in your video.
However, spectral analysis of our sun shows that heavier elements are created in the sun's atmosphere or corona and travel mainly inwards towards the core of the sun. Evidence from the SAFIRE project shows the same process, that elements that were not there are created in channels of movement from the coronal area towards the core. A form of Marklund convection from the corona towards the core, upon electrical discharge to the core.
Evidence from our sun through spectral analysis...…..

Edo's structured atomic model...……..

" the theory is when we start pulling Gold from the spectrum We better have our understanding of how integrated we our with the natural process of electricity or we could never respect the knowledge enough to utilize to elevate the whole of the Human race, all life connected. "
@@westrnite I think the next form of energy production is going to come from hydrogen, but not fusion reactors, but, fission reactors. Resonating or vibrating the proton to release its stored energy. Energy stored there at the galactic core, by lining up the dielectric, or ether medium into matter as per Halton Arp, shooting out of the galactic jets as neutrons.
Energy released the way the sun does, or SAFIRE or the SKUNK works.
Gold or other heavier elements require some energy to get them to go together as per Tesla, whirled or spiraled together at near the speed of light, in what we now know as Marklund convection, the input energy to create gold may never be practical.
@@JoeDeglman good point, I work on energy from radiation that's already moving no need for me to get light moving I just play in the light.
Gold does not come from the earth. It comes from supernova explosions period! Great video on how gold is brought to the earths surface through volcanism.
Ok! Ok! Precise and correct.
Geesh! :-)
Jon Bottoms Dang !!! Beat me to it.... In fact, ALL of the heavy elements were formed in supernovas.
Even we are made from star dust
ya ya ya, I bet gold came from "global warming." LMAO!!!!!

Dear Keith, Enjoyed the videos very much.. I learn a lot from each video lesson you have put up. I take notes thinking there will be a pop quiz most anytime.
You certainly have the talent and knowledge to teach us beginners.
Please do not go out alone to the field...... always have a companion.My best to you and Good Luck on your adventures. Ron.

I usually have a companion or two. There are some situations close to home where I feel comfortable enough to do a few things alone, but I always have someone I can trust monitoring my situation as best they can who will send help if I don't check in on time. Last trip I had a companion and still called in four times at points with cell coverage.

Thanks for the sharing all the tips.
I would like to hear about the geology..the source and migration of the placer deposits...and I really liked learning all about the equipment.. the AVR(?) Active vibration reduction hammer or drill.no one else has taken the time to explain it's use as well as you did, what was the generator size?
Keep up the good work explaining/ informing .

Do you have videos on mining oo identifying minerals or gems
Also enjoyed the evaluation video..Since I am a PEng.. that was an interesting segment.
If you have others that would be great.

I always size my generator to run at no more than 65% capacity standard load and 80% peak load. For this I use a 3000w Champion generator that costs $300-350 and lasts OK. It's not as good as a Honda, but I can buy four for the price of one Honda. Just change the oil every week and they last about a year at 50 hrs/wk.
There is a very good video series on youtube called 'Ore Deposits 101'
That is like a college level course on ore body formation. Every type of metallic ore body is covered. Can't recommend it enough.
I live in Tucson, AZ.
We are currently looking for a profitable small ore body so that we can video the whole process from initial site survey to profitability. Working in the back yard today processing ore samples. Letting the gold dry now to weigh it to see what the recovery was.
You should also check out my web site as there are some useful tools there and I will be adding more as time goes on.

gold come to earth by the means of meteorites smashing into the planet

Atomicwedgie81 your moniker suggests you want to be click bait.
@Just Looking Not everything (elements) is from a supernova. Some things, like gold for instance, came from neutron star collisions which form matter from a different process than do supernovas. But, if you really want to get down to it, previous to star formation, matter was created by dynamics that resulted in the formation of our universe, a process that created all the matter/energy we know of. Supernovas merely fused that original matter into heavier elements.
Thank you this video is by far best informative video .i have seen yet thank you sir
You are quite welcome.
Thanks for the lesson. On to another!
You are most welcome.
"10's of millions of years ago"....... WRONG. Nice try though.
? Are we talking theology here or something else?
Well, let's consider the facts. Tens of millions suggests anything from ten to ninety million years. Given the rate of the subduction zone under the western USA and Mexico, the descending plate melts as the crust moves over the hot spots. This creates strings of volcanoes, over billions of years (See Devil's Tower National Monument).
The result is the rocky layers melt and float upward, forming magma chambers. Ancient volcanoes, most now eroded, left these deposits behind as the subduction process moved westward (American crust over the Pacific plates). Currently, the hot spots are directly east of the present coastline.
Most of the gold in the Sierras (think Sutter's Mill goldrush of 1849) were created exactly this way. So, the volcanoes under Arizona are extinct, but the ones in California, Oregon and Washington state are still active. So, the easternmost volcanoes could be 100's of millions old, while the vulcanism seen on the American section of the Pacific "ring of fire" is happening now.
Geology stops for no human activity (see Pompeii).
Actually the topography here is mainly Basin and Range Province and the volcanism is less than 50 million years old en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basin_and_Range_Province
