- Please try a newer video they are much better.
In this adventure I go to a section of creek I have never explored. I was in for a surprise this area was beautiful and it was about a perfect day and the gold was shining in the pan. I take apart the Double Deuce sluice and pan the sections separately to show that most the gold is in the bottom. Thanks for Watching.
Get in the Creek and get That GOLD!!!

Reminds me of rock fish creak, on my back yard way back in the day.
A nice spot there Benzo. That green is surely moving in. We go back a couple months and you could see 100 yds through the 'sticks', now it's more like 10 yds through the green. Gold looked really fine! Take care my friend. Catch ya on the flipper!! Cheers! 🍻🍻⛏🍀
Hey thanks man, can't wait to get back I have an idea about some chunky gold gotta test it.😁✌👊🍻🍻⚒🇺🇸

Man, that is definitely a sweet little stretch right there. Nice looking gold. It looked like just the right amount of water to do some damage. Benzo I am getting that feeling again, see you soon buddy, take care !!!!
Yeah man, glad to hear you're on the mend and already thinking about getting out, It won't be long and camping will open again.later brother😁😁✌👊🍻⚒
A tenth of an oz @ $2000 Spot is a decent day's wages! Especially since you're in beautiful nature with the serenity of that flowing water sound and birds chirping! Not a bad "Office Environment" to earn a day's pay, my friend! I really enjoyed the video and all the content. That's a beautiful prospecting spot and I'm a bit jealous. ))) This was my first view of your channel and I'm gonna subscribe. God Bless, Brother.
Wohooo...got some shiny!! Keep it up!!

Hey Nebo, Hows it going
@@BenzoGold79 Back at NC Property. Doing final setup of the gold processing plant.
@@NeboGold alright sounds awesome let me know if you need an extra strong back, I'll be around in June🤠✌⚒⚒⚒
@@BenzoGold79" Working The Dream"
I was logging in 1992 in Nashville nc in a tract that had a lot of streams and found a gold nugget the size of my thumb nail and a small pill bottle half full of gold dust that i sifted through a piece of screen..not much but i found gold..true story folks..
There's a lot of history of gold mining there. They actually used huge dredging boats there
The Comstock load had a blue grey clay that was high in silver gold ore. Maybe you should get that clay assayed
Good idea, thanks for watching ✌😎⚒⚒
Let's go 👍🏻👍🏻🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲
For what you ran,I wouldn't complain
Cool I never new
Thanks for watching coom you saw something new✌🤠⚒
man benzo that sluice is bad ass is that the one i one on the show ? if so cant wait to use it!! great video keep it up . gold on!!!!!
Yeah man, that's the won Spike gave away, I love mine and I've been rough on it and its still great. Thanks man😁👍👍
Snappin necks and cashin checks!!!!✅🍻🤣🤣🤣
Flour gold Wizards cashin checks is what it’s about!! 🍻
Hahaha, TCB. Have a good one Jason😁✌✌🍻🍻🍻⚒
Hey benzo Tom from South Carolina I have a couple of rivers and creeks by me in South Carolina I want to give them a shot any suggestion the creek that you went to I don't know where it is but you had a lot of Creek Banks and gravel bars to prospect I would test fan the banks of the creek because every time it floods it changes and the gravel bars moved so look with a gravel bars are and dig under them you may find more gold
Am I the only one that noticed the vintage Schrade still in action?
Great video Benzo. What area of NC are you in? I'm in Randolph Co. Thanks for sharing!
I Thinso go there.lik that
Gold can commonly be found in waiste pits. Or chambers or sess pits or septic chambers.
These old quarried chambers are everywhere. So many they can lie over eachouther.
In just about any size. !!!
Maybe🤷
I will go to blue ridge mt nc and at least pan some
Wow! 16k views!
Thanks man, no clue why the algorithm picked this one up, it might be in my top 25 favorite videos I've made😎🍻⚒
👍🏻 🇺🇸
800 views! 💥 💥👊🏻👍🏻🍻🔥🥇
Yeah man, I cant believe that 😎😎⚒⚒🍻🍻🍻👊
is this creek open to the public or is it a secret place for you? Thank you
Cool video pretty country 👍🏻nice gold. New to channel just subscribed 👍🏻I prospect & mine in AK be safe & pan on
Awesome! Thank you!
*LMAO!*
I live on the outer Banks in North Carolina and me and my family are looking for a place that's public if there is such a place that we can go panning for some gold! You wouldn't happen to know where one of those places is do you brother?
N.C has lots of ground that's open. Google is very helpful 👍👍🤠
Do you hunt near or in Salisbury nc?
What part of north Carolina is this?
Is this Wilson creek or you near uwharrie
5k!
Who would have thought ✌😎🥳💥
Benzo Gold not this guy!

benzo, how close do u live to rutherford county,my name is stan,and im looking for someone to go out with me and show me how to pan, and what to look for in a creek.i,ve seen a lot of video,s but thats not the same as hands on...
Right on Man, not much beats a day in the creek. Im about 3 hours from there. Every creek is a little different but look for deposits of heavies, black sands and ironstones ✌😎🍻
I'm in Rutherfordton also
@@Sublimeshredder how is Lucky Strike creek panning? Going panning tomorrow but not sure if I'm going back to Uwharrie or going to try the creek that flows through Lucky Strike.
@@carolinaprospector3307 I'm not sure about lucky strike, I know they have a place you can go panning there. But Uwharrie can be good in the right spots. I wish I could go but I've gotta mode demo on our house here.
@@carolinaprospector3307 I went there last year and I saw a few guys catching some super fine stuff. However there was a woman who found a good nugget the week prior. Next time I go back it'll be in the U though
So my question is pretty simple: How much gold are you able to get per hour of panning? Just questioning whether it is worth it or not?
Hey thanks. Per hour..I never tried to measure it like that. Thats not really the point to recreational gold panning. There's a lot more to it than the gold totals. I highly recommend anyone to try it as a peaceful day in nature full of exploration discovery and hard work any gold semiprecious stones or artifacts gained is clearly a bonus.✌
@@BenzoGold79 Oh I agree on the outdoors part - I was just curious as to if you ever measured it. Just curious. Thanks.
@@cynnickel4548 my area is fine gold mostly and it varies greatly so a truthful answer sounds like no answer. Grams per hour..literally 0.00 to 0.10.😎
@@BenzoGold79 Yeah I found this on the internet: "So digging and cleaning out a small but good crevice and panning the material might take twenty minutes. Let's say that yields a quarter of a gram, which amounts to about 0.75 grams of gold per hour, and that gives just about 42 hours to get an ounce of gold by panning in a typical but decent spot."
That translates into about $45/hour. - which is pretty damn good, really.
I guess the key is finding a good spot!!
@@cynnickel4548 haha.yeah! Lol. Id say so. That spot is in Australia or California. Thanks for the info👍🍻
I realize people dont give up their spits, but would it hurt to name the river/creek or stream ? I mean, really?
Really if you're in the know it's no secret, watch more videos👍👍
U live in nc brother
Yes central NC usually in Uwharrie 🤠😎
I've never been gold-panning and I just moved to North Carolina and I wish thought this would be a fun hobby you should take me out someday hit me up thanks
If you're interested contact me with a private video on your Channel or something and then I can give you some more information I do not use my TH-cam email
Group dig Nov 20th. Video today. Live tomorrow 🤠⚒⚒🍻
What county in NC?
Montgomery Stanley Randolph.....Gold is out there🤠
At that rate you might have a half an ounce after 10 years.
Some days better than others. Got a quarter ounce so far in 2021🤠⚒
Small paydirt. Not worth it. This video is lame
