Scuba diving navy years off the Oregon Coast. Just put a long strip of velcro in your kit, and secure a big rip in the ripped suite that way. Oddly enough it works pretty well until you can repair it. 😉
...or duct tape...the Canadian way, ha
Your adventures are of the highest quality material on the tube, thanks for presenting this endeavour.
Thankyou appreciate it
@@officialtassieboysprospecting is the camera u have good?? 4k would be cool as option
Sniping & shaving 🪒 in the snow ⛄️ you’re officially crazy!! 😁😂😄
what I would prefer, mate, sitting in front of my computer watching you, you do all I ever dreamed of doing but never had the guts and time to do it, so thank you a millions time, well done and hope you realize the joy you give to all of us in the same boat. Allan
I'm sitting in Texas with 80 degrees at 9 AM and getting cold just watching your video/ Levi you're nutz!! but happy....
This is true adventure 😃
Some beautiful gold there Levi! Bit harsh using the wife's toothbrush to clean the mud out😂🤣
5:00 so true, it's an awesome feeling to get out and enjoy it!
Great video and lovely looking gold levi .. I have 1 issue ! If I blew all them black sands on the carpet my sheila would have a hissy fit .
0:53 love that shot
Awesome Adventure
The Crystalline nuggets Are Sweet
I Have Several
An Also On Host Rock,
Keep It Up.
Good to see u guys the other day. Stay safe. Leo ROCKS the drums
Nice one Levi. Very cool.
Some be-Au-tiful gold there Levi.
Over here in the United States where I live there are 6 different types of clay that I've run across black, red, blueish - gray, pink, green and white.
Some of those wide shots are very distinctive to a fellow Tassie boy, and spread out quite a bit ;)
Was expecting to see some wide shots from the East Coast chucked in there for lulz.
You do well to clean the gold without breaking it.
my goodness, i dont know how you can do this in the cold like you do. but well done.
It’s good for the soul
Pioneer pauly vacuumed his carpet and found gold.....its worth a try
Mate😲 This Kiwi needs at leeeast 2 wetsuits before getting that water😨😂
Props to you💪 Always A Great Watch👍
What ? No hot tank to warm suit first and feet !? It's SNOWING !!
We will not mention the painted lead you found to the crown.
fantastic looking gold there Levi and did you drink a bottle of anti freeze before you went out into that snow lol just kidding mate . I can also say that I' am no fan of blunt razors either lol . Well done mate 😁
What madman shaves those whiskers with a dry blunt razor? Someone buy the man a beer🥴👍🏾
Nice video again thanks Levi, you certainly are keen getting out in those conditions. You didn’t mention if your wife liked the Abe Lincoln look you brought home! 👍🏻
She hates it 😁
Great JoB really like your video,s .
Eluvial gold is gold that hasn’t entered running water such as a river or stream, as soon as it does it becomes alluvial. It has been moved by nature, just not by a river.
Perhaps the old times were getting nuggets out of that black clay, hence leaving that smaller gold behind?
Watch till the end folks. ... the QUEEN who owns all Levi's gold makes an appearance .... aka da Misses
very nice
Aim watching from Philippines. Wow
Levi you are a very good prospector you brave the freezing cold in a mountainous area for a gram or two of gold, with a ripped wetty and never once complained, just like a surfer it’s all about ( search and you will find ) at any cost.
Such an array of colour in that hard fought gold a really great find, well deserved my fellow Aussie 👏👌
HI LIAM 👋
Don’t forget ya crowbar , 😉👍
Mate you are well Hard! It shows that you don't have to be 6ft across the shoulders and build like a brick shit house. Middle of winter and snow hell I bitch about getting in mountain fresh rivers in the middle of summer in Far North Qld. You put any night club bouncer to shame. Rock Hard Levi, oh and great gold as always. Raise your glasses folks to Australia's Hardest keep going son.
Gees bro thanks mate ✌🏼👍🏼👍🏼
it's surprise me when I saw your lunch is indomie noodle, so my favorite noodles from indonesia is at your country
Haha that’s cool 👍🏼
I miss the snow was raised in the mountains but now working in the desert snow is so peaceful and quiet when it’s coming down.
So I’m guessing there was a huge fire back in the day and then a couple of monster floods that’s where our black clay comes from and that gold definitely hasn’t traveled far from the source so find the areas with the biggest trees and check for burn scars and you’ll find the burn area and possibly the source. This fire would have been hundreds of years ago the other way would to be to track the gold upstream untill it’s gone and up one side or the other the source will be found. I’m sure the old timers did the same thing so you might find their mine. It could take months or years but a deposit of that type of gold is worth it. I’m wondering how the old timers got away with out having to pay the crown for the gold they found. Cheaper miners rights back then? Great adventure with awesome snow scenes and very cool gold thanks for sharing see you on the next one👍🏼👊🏼
Yes a lot easier to stake a claim back then
Ассалам Алейкум🤝 Всем добрый день☀ Очень интересно 👍 Нохчи Мохк Грозный.
Thankyou
Mate I think you need a new suit, why don't we make a swap, I'll give you a black thing and you can give me a shiny stuff 😉
Have u tried a ultrasonic cleaner on the eluvial gold?
Not as yet I should hey
I had to google eluvial gold to make sure Levi hadn't done a typo instead of alluvial gold lol.
Haha 👍🏼
Hey brother, how many mill is your wetsuit? Do you use any weights?
👍👍👍👍👍
Which country are you from, bro. That's Indomie Indonesia.. Greetings from Indonesia
Wow, indomie?
What is the best minelab detector to use in the bush for gold?

@@officialtassieboysprospecting awsome thanx
🇧🇷👏👏👏👏😊😊😊😊😊🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷Love to work am from Brasil minas gerais eart of mine Gold, Sky open, im detectorist
You should never go without duct tape for your suit and raft when using it.
You could use some of the gold you mined to buy a pair of new wetsuits, at different temperatures. What? Is this an idiotic idea? Oh, sorry!
Great job mate. Found some nice gold there.
Get yourself an ultrasonic cleaner to clean your gold. I use it to clean mine. Any bits of gold that fall off are trapped in it so it's never lost. Even though the plug in the sink does well.
Nice looking nug you detected. Cheers for sharing Levi.
Good Luck & Happy Swingin'
Fascinating shaped gold 💛 thanks for the education… toothbrush, hairdryer great tools of the trade!! Beautiful snowscapes too….
Your hands 🙌 clean up well too 👏
You are a beast Levi! Not much seems to stop you from getting out there. I get cold just watching you get in that creek. I guess it’s true, no pain no gain. Nice looking gold especially the half gram piece. Take care out there and look forward to more adventures with you!
I thought cressi would have sent you new wetsuit by now.your doing free advertising for them 😊lol.
Me to what’s up with that company lately 😂
I love the shapes of the gold you found and It looks so chunky too ! get yourself an electric shaver for your car🤌😂
There’s an idea 😁
Another awesome adventure...above (literally) and beyond 😁👍...I will send a message to the Queen to tell her how stoked I am with your efforts...big loves Levi...always amazing 😎🙏
Appreciate all your effort, seriously it’s not easy getting those close ups, your photography and content are always satisfying, you even get the music just right, you’ve got the moxy and classy personality to do these vids better than any one! Big fan here…Best adventures and luck from idaho!
Hey fellow idahoan, coeurd alene s home, how bout you?
Thanks mate much appreciate
Another awesome video thank you for sharing. Hope all is well be safe 🙏 that piece looked like E.T.
I see it
crystal gold forms after it gets heated twice. a deposit in rock when another intrusion reheats it, allowing it to crystalize as it slowly cooled. i have a very bright piece i found from New Guinea.
Hi Levi, awesome video, it really looked cold, I don't know how you did it with that big hole that was in your suit. The gold was very beautiful bits mate. Beautiful country up in the highlands.
I hope you and yours, have a awesome blessed day mate. Cheers!
Cya! 😺🐟 out!
Balaise le rasage a sec ''''bonne continuation pour la suite 😉
There is something so peaceful and tranquil about the underwater shots😀 It is amazing area Levi with some fantastic gold👌🏻 Thanks for sharing⛏🏴
Haha so I’m guessing you’re on vacuuming duties too aye🤣🤣 Very cool looking gold bro but I think I still prefer smooth Alluvial gold better.
Hallo saudara saya sering nonton video TH-cam kamu dan saya subscriber kamu dan hari ini saya lihat ada Indomie goreng didalam video kamu, saya sangat senang kamu juga konsumsi Indomie goreng, saya juga termasuk penyuka Indomie goreng. Saya sudah lihat seluruh video kamu saya terkesan hari ini, salam sukses dan terus berkarya 👍👍💪
Gold....it's like a sexy lady that never gets old.
G'Day Levi👍🏼 That is some wild looking gold in a Wild looking place. lol,,dry shaving is not fun yet alone with a dull razor but sealing the mask is impossible with the rough whiskers. Dont forget to replace the emergency razor in the vehicle. Cool Bike👍🏼Looks like extra fun for sure,,StaySafe and Thanks Man👍🏼
Handsome like you better become actor hollywood.😁😁
Cuz enter jungle snake phyton waiting target🤭🤭🙊sorry just kidding bro😀
Great job, Levi....go higher and maybe up river some more.....I think you're on to something there....wish I could join ya but too old now......give your family a big hug and dream of the AU........

Some beautiful gold there Levi, looked so cold 🥶 . How good is the SDC, pick of the bunch for detecting in Tassie I reckon.
Beautiful looking gold. Undeniably beautiful 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🙌
My lesson for the day, I now know the difference between alluvial and elluvial, thank you :) I always wondered what you meant when you said alluvial. You are super dedicated getting out there and in the water in the depths of winter, your hands must get so cold. Need to treat ya self to a new wet suit. Great education and interesting video as always
Nice and warm here, but hard to put a coat on once you plunged into that meltwater. Detect that black clay mate it looks to be loaded. The old blokes would have used a puddler. I bet there should be one there or a tough. THAT GOLD LOOKED GRAND.
If you have decided to freeze your bollocks off, this is the right way to do it! That gold is about as pretty as it can get! 😁👍🏻👍🏻 Have a fine day, thanks Levi!
Great beautiful type of gold that's at that place and it gives u somewhere to have a crack with all this rain cheers Glenno 😎😎👍👍
2 thumbs up, great video, I live in Ohio, which is under Canada, we received gold from them from 3 glacial pushes. I found some ore samples while gardening so now I am going back to this fissure that I am having no luck at and looking for more
Great vid bro that pugs one of the most evil stuff to work but that creek always gives the nicest lookin bits I do luv that spot mate hope ya well cheers
Wassup boys. We are another Tassie TH-cam channel and we should defined do a collab check us out!
I'd have thought you'd come across some venomous or dangerous wildlife in those areas.
Too cold thankfully. In warmer weather l would assume tiger snakes would be a concern, but nobody has died from one in ages due to the antivenom.
Mamoth effort...hope you find that 23 oz plus soon...that geology was wild!
Hibernate like a bear, absolutely.
Levi
It's exciting seeing you snipe up gold And yet I'm still surprised to see you always getting gold Thanks for sharing
Fireman 🔥🔥🔥
Another awesome video. Thanks bud. Hope your doing well
Buy razers with stainless blades, they don't go blunt, top tip for the day!!
Nice one Levi. When pin pointing with the SDC to find your moved target, tip the coil up on edge as being a mono coil the whole outer edge is very sensitive & will really bang on the target with a small narrow footprint & not the whole width of that 8" coil. :).
Buy a small ultrasonic jewelry cleaner from eBay, works great on removing clay from small crevices.
Nice! So cool to see the difference between the gold. Beautiful video. Does your wife ever go with u on these adventures?
Reckon some razors in the glovebox Levi
Nice shiny gold
Nice work mate. If your going to be heading up there again I can see an ultrasonic cleaner in your future!
Stunning pieces mate, love from the big Island.
Hey Levi, that is the same kind of gold I find. Love your videos brother.
ps stick a magnet on your pick steal some neodymium from old hard drives epoxy them on the shaft
watching you scraping the river bed i have too ask why no detector 1st?? gl
Cool vid as usual mate, but something I don't understand is why people still use 'techniques' to separate the gold from sand when you're down to like a 50/50 mix like at 21:25. Wouldn't you just pluck the gold out with some tweezers or put your finger on it and just sweep it to one side?
In this instance it would have made more sense to just pluck it out it would be extremely time consuming using that technique when the blacks and is fine sometimes there’s literally thousands of pieces but the light stuff blows away real easy
I find it insane that you are walking through snow! it is 100 degrees in Montana.
Love your videos man! That black clay looks like it would be hard to deal with.
Great stuff Levi.
Thank you.
Andy
Awesome vid, nice gold.
Ahhhh ! Beautiful gold Levi!! I'm glad you were able to get out there with the bad weather.. Suscriber for life sir!
Try soaking the dirty and stained gold in some white Vinegar it works wonders mate 🍻👍
Yes I agree very pretty that gold!
It looked cold mate well done. Cheers.
Great video Levi, Mate that gold looks amazing in its natural state. The mind boggles as to just how much fun the old timers must have had early days eh!
That video was just wonderful. The gold had a beautiful shape. Me, being a jeweller l can just imagine a gorgeous piece in it's natural form on the top of a ring and nestling in nicely with a few diamonds. It would be a completely natural and unique ring. My mind is going mad with creativity right now. Why bother shaving off the mo, it would have kept you warmer. Anyway, good luck, you deserve all you can get. Could you one day jump a plane and fly to Melbourne to sell your gold if you can't sell it in Tassy? Would that be allowable at all?
Definitely no issues selling gold in Australia. Legally you require a permit (miners permit or fossicking licence depending on the state), but that permit gives you full ownership of anything you find and full rights to sell it.
I need to apply for special permit and wouldn’t necessarily be granted the shave is to stop mask leaking
@@officialtassieboysprospecting Thanks for your reply Levi. Now l get it re your mask.
