Bee ess table lol 😆 you kill me... 🤣 😂
Lol, “You put it in your eyes…” 😂
It's the mole men that made the tunnel. It goes all the way to Jeff Williams mine.
If`n I see Jeff Williams pop out , I`ll play a tune for him on my 6 gun ....ha ha so come on , lets goooo !
I love Jeff Williams gold shows. He’s an amazing person.
Now I’m watching what your trying to find. Best of luck.
Beautiful Gold. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you for stopping by🤙
You guys kick ass. This video has it all. History, discovery, artifacts, plan of operation and of course gold. Best of luck to you.
Always appreciate your visit !
Youse guys always deliver the goods!
Swamp
Thanks so much !
Nice bottle find also
Hey I'm from Scott Nuttall channel.... We jumped old mine shafts vertically horizontally looking for missing person... I really enjoyed this video thank you so much
Thank you so much
well I don't think your gonna get rich but the coffee Bacon and beans are great 🤣, it's a labor of love .
Just amazing fam. Nice au indeed. Keep at it. Gold Squad Out!!!
So Awesome!!! You guys are one of my favorite youtubers... Please don't stop... Everything about this I loved. I didn't want it to end... Can't wait for the next one and eventually the weigh in... I can only imagine...
Thank you so much ! I`m not sure we are going to show the full clean up but we are showing a little along the way. We have to have some anonimity
You guys are some hard working Miners, Fantastic video and incredible Gold Nice Thanks for sharing 👍🏼 😀
You should see the guys that ate the Mule!
Thanks 👍 I really appreciate you swinging by ! We are the real deal unlike some Nugget Heads out there !
@@IBRAKEFORBEDROCK I see you do serious work for that Gold I enjoy watching
That bottle is very old for sure Incredible find
The first bottle was an opium bottle “ elixir” From the late 1800’s. Second bottle was a pepper sauce bottle made in 1875
@@IBRAKEFORBEDROCK Thanks for letting me know I was so curious I love old bottles
Cool video guys nice finds and good gold too, added a like and FB share. Cheers
Thank you so much !
It's an ancient root from a huge tree. The organic matter has since disintegrated.
Sorry , no Definitely worked ground . We followed their workings for a long way . Thank you for stopping by !
Love the history, Relics always make you wonder about the people that left them.
I agree ! Thanks for the comment
Reading the bottle reminded me of the clip in dumb and dumber where he's trying to read " THE " best part of the video 🤣 but what a cool find......
In fairness to him there was dirt and patina all over the bottle.... Thanks for dropping by 👍
@@IBRAKEFORBEDROCK Yeah not judging at all, which I'm sure you know. I just have a mind that goes to old movies every time I hear something and that took me there.
Love your humor guys! Others guys got here before us and that's pretty messed up. Is my face dirty. You crack me up! Is that on a claim?
Yeah, this is on a mining lease. Thanks for the comment !
A friend I sold my Homestead to in the 80s just found a 40 ounce nugget yesterday.
Shut the front door !!!! Amazing ! must be more
You guys rock.
Thank so much !
I found one of those same bottles in an old outhouse hole in BC, the hole had only been there from the 1950’s
This one has very specific features that date it back to the 1880’s along with the other pepper sauce bottles we found. Really cool stuff
It’s a 1930 vegetable pain killer bottle. Worth around 50-60 dollars! Nice find!
We also found several peppersauce bottles , unfortunately they were broken. One of them had a stamp on the bottom 1874 ....
It's a turn of the century Davis Vegetable pain killer.....$2.00
There's probably cucumbers in it ha ha
Great video, yeah the old timers were there and left some good junk behind, some bottles fetch more than gold! I like the pocket knife you found and I found one too at 12 feet deep detecting an excavation hole searching for nuggets in Victoria's golden triangle. Cheers.
Love it , Thank you !
Wow that bottle was cool. Cool operation you guys got going on thanks for sharing. That's messed up that the ole timers got there before u. The old knife was cool too
Glad you stopped by !
Some great finds and great gold. Getting pretty serious with that setup! Very cool!
Thanks 👍
Wow! You guys killed it out there! Awesome,awesome job!
Good Times !
I sure hope they missed a bunch for your sake very interesting though and I hope your pans are Heavy 😁👊👊✌️
Really epic find guys!!! Looking 👍
Thanks for stopping by !
This was so much fun. Finding gold is the best cure for depression. Lol.
I fight serious depression every day man. Yes nugget hunting helps a little
You boys are on the gold now!! Great video!!
Yes sir ! Thanks for stopping by !
That was totally awesome🔥🔥💯💯💯
Thank you so much !
It might be pain killer, Nitro 🤣
Looks like you may find more stuff from old prospectors camps that got washed out in a flash flood
I hope so !
Wonderful video show & explain more about the holes!
Focus in a bit more too.
Thanks great gold.😎🤠
Thanks, will do!
Nice video of your big Drywasher in action. I’ve been wanting to see how you guys operate😀
Thank you ! Pretty cool e`h
Always enjoy seeing your guys, videos. I would suggest saving all of your concentrates that do not have free gold, everything that is In that dry washer tray that is not visible gold and run it through a ball mill crusher you may be surprised how much gold is in that material Every Placer miner needs to start doing this I only know a few that do. Maybe I’ll start a business buying Placer mine tailing piles🤪
Ill pass that on to bounder dash. Hes literally an expert on hard rock refining and recovery
O M G, a mini excavator and a grizzly!!!!!!! Im so jealous, except for the 107 degrees. Great video guys.
Thank you for swinging by !
AWESOME" from Idaho!!!!
Thank you so much !
Good gold mining video
Glad you enjoyed it, and thanks for swinging by !
That's one super-duty Drywasher!
Yes sir , Boulderdash owns it !
DANG ! Yer Killing It !!! I Have to Dail My 140 In !! The Frist Time Out Found some Good Gold , The next few times very little . I Might be running to Flat , Have to rethink the Angle of the Tray ....
GL&HH Greg
We have been drywashing a long time. Air volume, feed rate , and tray angle all play a role in good recovery. The number one bad thing I see people do is push way to much ait through the 140. It doesent take much to run that machine.
@@IBRAKEFORBEDROCK Thanks for the advice and that it cooling off I'll spend more time watching it run than shoveling it full so I can get out of the Heat ! 👍🇺🇸 VOTE
Love That Kari Lake for Arizona Governor
Petty CooL guys great finds! WTG!!! RAW
Thank you !
I'm thinking that bottle is from the depression era. History shows Arizona bedrock drift mining started at the start of that time frame
Nice,you guys are having fun and getting great gold...awsome video
Thanks 👍 I really appreciate you stopping by
The Davis bottle is a mega common bottle and worth 50 cent at best if you could sell it at a bottle show. That will get you one mile in gas towards the bottle show. Plus $10 for parking plus $ 60 for your 8 foot table and $ 7 for the hot dog and small coke. Fill up your gas task for the trip home. The broken bottle was a common pepper sauce.
Do you find davis bottles from 1875 with the liquid still in them and original cork ?
So cool! I sure hope you guys detect those coarse tailings, never know if a big one is hidin in there...
Ugh ! dont say that ! ....We did detect some but definitely not as much as we should have .
Good stuff and the video was good too .the micro gold adds up.its a great time to be in the desert. The food just taste better after a hard day's work see ya the next one.
Agreed !
I think that old bottle is cool. I like finding stuff like that.
Good fun, and thanks for stopping by!
Wow! That is an opium bottle. If it says 'Davis' on the front, it is was made between 1860 and 1900. The bottle is worth about $50 and $75 bucks. there are several other manufacturers, I'm really only familiar with Davis.
Really neat ! Yes it says davis pain killer . It has been sitting on a shelf and the liquid inside has almost evaporated.
That pocket knife looks to be a Cub Scout or Boy Scout knife from the 70s. Super cool relics you’re finding in the wash. Oh and nice gold too! ⚡️⚒⚡️
Those knives were quite popular at hardware stores in the late 1800`s ....We have found a few of them.
Man that is awesome. Wish this Florida guy could get some of your dirt.
Hmmmm 🤔
Awesome finds! Enjoyed the video! Keep them coming!
Thank you sir !
Wow, those relics are extremely cool! I’d love some of that micro gold if you guy decide to sell. Nice work!
Thank you Bill 👍
Wherever u guys were where the birds were singing really cool they were trying to lead you to something or away
Thanks for the comment !
That was some very fine gold, especially for a dry washer. Eva was most impressed by your partially vacuumed sluice.
Thanks for tuning in Keith & Eva !
@@IBRAKEFORBEDROCK You guys are good. Well worth watching. If I ever need help with detectors or dry washing, I know who I will be asking.
I would dig a little deeper in the right places since old timers were there mining good luck 🤞
You bet , thank you for tuning in ! 🙏
Big operation. Actual mining big time.
Hope I earned your subscription ! Thank you
what you find...a chrysalis:))
My wife found a bottle just like that one while dredging in Montana this summer. Wish I could post a picture of it. Perfect condition from the 1860's!
That would be so cool ! Wish you could post it too !
If they drifted the bench , it had to have values! follow those workings.
And we are sir 👍. Thank you 🙏
Nice $2.00 bottle. 👍1890s
How many of these arefound corked with liquid still in them ? Should be worth 3.00 !
The gold was nice BUT.....the pocket knife was the best ground score, next to the mystery bottle of liquid
Thank you !
Where ever there was known decent gold, it's hard to find ground that wasn't already dug. I call that fine gold "gold dust".
Thanks for the input !
Mule shoes are far larger than that, looks like a burro shoe.. Nice dig guys
Cool, thank you !
Another Great video from you guys. Nice botttle in unbroken condition. Very nice recovery guys. Is that a Keene 151 dry washer you are using? Thanks for sharing.😎😎⛏⛏🔥🔥
Sweet video! My buddy found 7 bottles like the first one you found full of mercury. You never know what you can find. Keep up the great work!
Wow , so cool !
Mercury is dangerous
All sorts of neat relics. I thought you were going to venture into the mine.
we go in a mine on my latest video ...Thanks for stopping by
Your a funny dude
Thanks for sharing another great video guys. Is this one of your claims that is up for sale?
No, but the same thing could be done on any of the placer claims we have for sale.
Well that's good to know because I'm seriously considering buying a claim
Most of the talk is about the job and the work is yet to be completed.
awesome gold i'm headed to AZ in February again to get out of the snow. do you still have the claim for sale quartsite area?
As of right now, yes we have 2-40 acre claims for sale in Quartzsite.
I was just butthurt..I'm from the desert and don't make it back much..I seen you digging around and was instantly jealous lmao...the smell of the desert when it rains nothing compares..we used to hint bottles and pretty much anything we could find on old foundations miles and miles I to the desert where you'd never expect to find an old homestead.
I get it !I live in the mountains but more at home in the desert. A lot of people dont get to use an excavator like we do either. It takes money and a lot of paperwork. Big risk !
You blokes would have to be the most efficient dry wash operators there is fantastic fine gold and chunks to boot good on ya fellas. May I ask do you run the same feed rate onto your riffle tray on the big dry washer as you would a single dry washer. Love the relics it's always great to find history when gold hunting tells a story. Great vid once again and hope that area just keeps on giving for ya's
Thank you so much !
Yes the air volume is the same or a little higher depending on the feed rate. Generally the feed rate is more just because the amount of material to run. No worries though, it catches gold amazingly well..
Greetings from the BIG SKY. Good Halloween joke.
That was my fancyest editing yet ha ha..... Thanks for tuning in !
So is that yours and boulderdashs claim I live in north Carolina where there is plenty of gold were just not allowed to claim ground to work love your videos keep them coming
Pretty sure you can claim BLM , forest service, and State trust land, and work it .....
Looks like an Aussie set up
Really ? I want to see
@@IBRAKEFORBEDROCK there was a U tube video in Australia where the guy had 4 keens , a hopper and grizzly and was feeding it with a bobcat. The dust was really bad
@@tombeilman5579 I may have seen it .Nice looking set up if it worked properly. The onewe use has been used for many seasons and has been modified as needed.
The biggest issue with dust is that is gets in the bloweres for the dry washer air supply and cloggs the cloth from the inside. We have found ways to help mitigate this.
What? No final cleanup? 😂great video guys and thanks for posting.
Oh man, we have to reserve some anonimity ......Its was a significant amount
That's how you find the gold. Way to go.
Thank you ! yes indeed
Imagine that 😳 ! The Old Guys dug deeper and didn't even have an excavator !
But thanks for the video 📹, !
Yeah , back in the day. There were no jobs so a lot of men mined , and had nothing but time . They found pounds of gold here , while digging as deep as they needed to .
How did the early prospectors do it? How did they find an exact place to start digging those tunnels? There were no metal detectors around…Just ‘reading’ the geology looking for bedrock landscape? AMAZING !
They knew how to trace & follow the heaviest ancient gravels. They were exceedingly successful. These guys were in this creek right around the 1880`s
@@IBRAKEFORBEDROCK Thanks! There had to be some kind of system…
Thanks
No, thank you ! We appreciate it
Can you guys explain the tunnels some more? I don't really understand... I see these tiny holes you are showing, maybe a fist size, but I don't see any tunnels where a person can walk in? What am I missing??
Yes show & explain more about the holes!
I agree, I should explain things better .....They are voids left by the miners back in the 1800`s
Well I'll be Danged.
Very interesting site indeed.
I'm almost OFF the edge of my seat watching this VideO loosing my patience 🙃
Very Cool.
Best comment ever ! Thank you so much, and I hope I earned that subscription !

Thumbs up.
Yes absolutely.

Even added a heart ✔️🤣😄👍
what part of Arizona are ya in? I see the saguaro. I used to live in tubac just north of Rio Rico. spent a buncha time in green valley[Tucson] and Carefree by Phoenix.i miss Arizona so bad and exp since I got the gold fever AFTER moving to Florida. where there's NO GOLD!
keep it up
My pops lives in Green Valley ......Nice country down there . We are north of Phoenix
I won't say your lucky cause you make your own luck and you guys work your tails off . How do I know we'll I don't see no feathers sticken out your back side . Great video .
Thanks so much ! we really appreaciate the comment !
2 big kids playing in the dirt
🤣 so true ! Thanks for stopping by
@@IBRAKEFORBEDROCK looks like fun
That looks like a fun time working hard! Nice mix of mesh sizes getting caught.....the fly poo seems collect on the silicone could it be sticking or settling out in slack air? Those are nice bottles...there are videos out there turning the broken ones into shot glasses and other cool things.
Thank you so much as always ...I`b be glad to sent you a half grammer nugget for some apples.....arizonagoldrush@gmail.com
@@IBRAKEFORBEDROCK 🤝🍻
It looks like you guys have found the hot spot, great video.
Yes , and thank you for swinging by !
an old timer up here in the wyoming mountains warned me about picking up bottles with yellow oily liquid in them as they might contain nitroglycerin
Well its been in my living room and has almost all evaporated
@@IBRAKEFORBEDROCK oh you probably would have known if was nitro
@@williamshoemaker3025 ha ha 🤣
Perry Davis veg pain killer. The original Opioid crises. 1870 - 1890 That is what 1 of Bing's answers said.
Awesome, thank you so much . We found several peppersauce bottles from the 1874 area too
Yep, Laudanum is redish brown liquid, just like what you have.
I didn't know dry boxes were a thing. How does it compare to a wet sluice box?
I did some gold mining north of Circle Alaska in my younger years. Normal sluice box with pond water as the source. I'm guessing the reason we don't use dry sluice boxes is that the dirt is moist. And in desert climates the dirt is dry so you can pull this off. Very cool, learned something new.
Howdy , and thank you for watching !
Yes , in environments when the ground is moist nearly, or all year round, a dry washer will not work. The best recovery method will be a wet system .
However, here in the desert the Dry Washers Started being invented in the 1800`s and were wildly successful in most areas where the ground was dry and no water was available.
Recovery with a dry washer is better on fine gold than a wet system, and it takes significantly less equipment and parts to operate. They use air to separate the heavy material from the lighter material.
NICE! Some serious work. Don't your day jobs miss you guys? LOL
oops ! I knew I forgot to call someone ... Thanks for stopping by !
Pretty Ausome. Y'all got a beAutiful spot there. Personally I love the dry-washers. Speaking of which, I have a Gold King for sale. I'm in Lake Havasu so if you're ever up in this area give me a shout out. Don't have any legs for it, loaned it to a "friend" and had to go pick it up. Guess he ran over them.
Omg ! Id be so pissed off ......Thanks for stopping by !
I'd like to find out more about their dry washer do they have blueprints for it do they manufacture them
No blueprints just yet ..... Its custom built and works amazingly well
@@IBRAKEFORBEDROCK what's the secret to the high efficiency
@@byronleatham1183 So many aspects of the system need to be correct for it to be successful, and efficiant
I Really like the concept and the content in this vid, you got me very interested and I will for sure follow your adventure. I recon you don't need water permit... anyway really nice video! Greetings from Sweden mining Finnish Lapland ⛏️ ✨️ 🇫🇮 🇸🇪
Water permit ? no sir , and thank you for watching !
@@IBRAKEFORBEDROCK just kidding when I mentioned water permit but what permits acquires for your drymining concept, just curious if this could be done at our claim tough it maybe to wet condition.
@@outnorthprospecting Yes , it must be fairly dry. So this takes place in our summer
Maybe used shovel with handle as grave marker
Oops ! Why did you have to go and say that lol
Would be interested to know how much in fuel is being burned vs value of recovery... (including costs of getting machinery and YOU guys out there daily.)
Remember, we are only showing a small portion of the gold recovered. I cant remember how much fuel was used , maybe around 6 gallons a day. Someone was on site the whole time through the summer months 110+ degrees
You kidding me? You uncover that tunnel from the top down and follow it. Those guys wouldnt have dug that tunnel unless they were getting gold.
Actually, we did follow it the whole way. Everywhere they left off we found gold
Common medicines used in 1800s include:
Painkillers such as opium, morphine, phenacetin, and acetanilide.
Great Video Guys...
I read the mix in that bottle was alcohol & opium . Missionaries used to sell it in the late 1800`s as a cure-all Really cool stuff!
@@IBRAKEFORBEDROCK wow what a cool find!
