  • John tinylimo and I took a trip to the local portis gold mine. We not only shocked ourselves but we managed to shock the mine owner Steve too. We found an old pile of gold and silver ore that has been overlooked for years. Gold prospecting nc Is so much fun.

    Wow, I don't know if you should crush that one specimen. I would think it would be worth a lot more like it is especially since you know where it came from. Can't wait to see what you pan out of the rest of it! Well done guys 👍

      Thank you so much Lee. Yeah John calls it his pocket rock lol he still might be caring it around. You’re spot on about not crushing it. I can’t wait to see this bucket crushed up and panned too.

      @@InternalCompassofNC sure glad I stumbled on your channel 👍👍🏻
      My grandson and I are enjoying it.
      We're moving to north Carolina, my wife is a teacher and they are really short
      on teachers
      The first school I called in the area we want to move to ask me to ask her NOT TO CALL ANYONE ELSE UNTIL
      She has a video conference with him!.
      I was like Lord was that you opening a door or are they just that short!
      Any way we're moving somewhere around Western South Carolina
      I'm a disabled RR engineer so I have time
      Thanks for making these for people like me that can't get out to search from Missouri
      My grandson will be doing most of the work but he also gets to keep whatever we find.

    Great work, looks like some good times ahead crushing rocks, you need a little hammer mill like mine, it makes short work with crushing the rocks and turns it to powder, have fun.
    Cheers, Pete

    • @InternalCompassofNC
      @InternalCompassofNC  2 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      Yes a hammer mill like yours would make short work of it for sure. Thank you so much Pete!

    Since 2019 when i found my 1st gold in quartz i was hooked lol. Since then i been finding NC rocks with gold some in Virginia too funny thing was growing up family farmed tobacco & frowned upon prospecting i remember asking about gold...I really love it! Gold is where you find it for sure!! I researched the history before I went looking in these areas. You never know what you'll come across some rocks I find with gold have that black where the gold rides you know you got a winner when you see it buddy!!!

      I have one but most of the gold we find in our area is so small the doesn’t register on the detector. Thanks David.

      We might be able to make that happen. We are looking for a crusher now.
