This is part 1 of a multi part series that will help you guys figure out what land you can prospect on anywhere in the USA. We start off with the basic and will work into more complex info as we go along so get your note books out sonny Jim cause class is in session....Old School.
Well ya got me up from off my hinney watchin you boys pannin shiny. But now I'm on line lookin for a claim thanks helpin me not look lame!! I know now how to find my claim!!!
Started my mining heritage in Washington State, Kittitas County, Swawk Creek area. Was so 'taken' by finding a little color in my pan & enjoying conversations with old miners with tall tales, that I gained an engineering degree & sold to the mines (Au, Silver, Rare-earth, Borates and aggregates) for 30 years.... On a personal level, I tell 'greenhorns' that mostly what I find is "LEVERITE"... "it's not Gold, so ya leave-er-rite there".... every old miner knows this joke. Met ya Jeff in Arizona a few years ago. It was a privilege, and although your videos are entertaining - there is an extensive mining background and education behind it. Making our continued learning process both FUN and educational... Mac
But still, I love his attitude too!!! You're right on about that too. He's our Distraction like Shirley Temple was in the 30's for our parents. Aaawwwh. There's really nothing new under the sun. Just reruns to the new learners. Amazing , gold mining has been around since forever, I guess. Or almost.
I'm going through this myself in Liberty Wa. The BLM controls nearly nothing around Liberty with all of the great gold rich gold deposits. I talked the the local BLM office and was sent to the local Geologists who knew nothing about the Liberty area and I just amateur Geologist had to school this guy about where and how the gold got there. Amazing lol
You might like a video I found which is a lecture by Nick Zentler from Central Washington University about mining in the Liberty area. th-cam.com/video/QsNZfRJihdw/w-d-xo.html He shows some film clips at the end
Hey Jeff an slim you have a new fan my son mike subscribed yesterday he thinks you r awsome an so funny I showed him you wished me a happy birthday an he was hooked thanks Jeff an slim
Hay Sunny Jim!! Thanks for part one, very helpful for a newbie to the shiny and the area.. with your help I am on my search for my first find. Thanks for all your knowledge and awesome videos.. So com' on let's go!!! find the shiny!!
Hi Jeff I take this info some video ago but is good refresh my memory, now everyone is stuck in our country for the Corona virus, take care, my family in Italy they take seriously the quarantine, I'm a prepper in 🇨🇦, I think where u living is a good location 👍
Come on!!!! That vid was incredible. This is exactly what I have been looking into over the last few weeks. Jeff, great winter time vid. Really appreciate the work you do.
Thank you also for putting this Foundational video together, you can now add this to your Foundational video series , for this lays the very foundations of things for anyone interested in gold mining/panning etc, and is a core information area need to know teaching that is a must
Yippee! I can't wait! So many vids out there, I only go to you, How did you become so knowledgeable an expert on this subject? You are really good! An I LOVE LOOVE LOOVE wats taken you years we will have in hours thanks to your beautiful videos! Full gratitude!
Absolutely perfect timing, I was just starting research for areas to sample nearby to the Spokane area. Makes me wish I was still in MT near any random creek.
How I found Jeff and slim .it was a long. Long time ago. I was looking for information for my chev Tahoe on TH-cam in the video section half way down the page. There he was making a chain mill rock chusher watch the video and another video . now I'm waiting for the day I walk over the next hill side. And find slim and jeff .in the years I have been prospecting. I have found many strange things and you tubers in the Arizona desert un till then. Happy trails jeff and the crew. Arizona gold get out and get some
Jeff you are awesome. It's like you read peoples minds!!! Recently traveled to SC for vacation and the whole way down and back I thought about where to go to start looking for gold!!!
@@Askjeffwilliams while i was on the beach with my son playing with sand toys there was a toy classifier and I immediately went to pretending I was looking for gold in myrtle beach state park. Lol. Had wife rolling!
Excellent info, Jeff! Heading right over to My Land Matters and will donate then start my research to plan my trips for the coming warmer months. Dabbled in it a few years back but have since learned that knowledge is the key to finding where the good spots are. Thank you for shortening my learning curve! Will keep you posted on my adventures....
Wow ! You found Slim's secret mine entrance !! Bet there's a whole bunch of shiny down there ? The tricky part is getting in there without Slim knowing. Ha ha !! Nice website. Will check it out !
most people don't hike bring your gps mark a way point view the coordinates on google maps to see the terrain hike back a few miles (no roads ,dirt bike paths) just foot paths when you realize no goes there start sampling if the area is known for gold it's ALL YOURS cause no one is back there gotta get in some decent shape I only have like a few pounds in my prospecting pack up to you
Another awesome video. I learn something new each video I watch. One question is what is the best low cost GPS to find areas that are marked so a person won't enter a nearby claim?
buying a claim or two is on my list after retirement,,first hole has to be deep enough to hold pet rattlesnakes ,,,,,and claim jumpers. just til after supper....
"Go to where it has already been found",....hmmm,..The problem with that is when it was found somebody had to go to where it was not found to find it so it can be found and we can go there where it's found and not go to where it is not found which is where we started out at,...not found so we can find it so it will be found. That's genius Slim.
Hi Jeff and Slim! Looks like Jeff found Slim's secret vault/hide-a-way in the floor. Wonder what he hiding down there? Nice job explaining the website and how to navigate it. Very cool. Say hello to Roy too please.
Hi Jeff I live in Australia . Boy. now listen to me boy . Do I get pay dirt ? Boy . If so let’s Go!!!!! I need some Munk BOY. I wish I had your wealth of knowledge BoY. I want to be a geologist too. Awesome video with humour. you get five gold nuggets in my ratings BOY...............!!!!!
Hi Jeff, I have been using that Map program for a month and it is really good,the modest donation is worth the cash saved not buying maps anymore. OK yes you can see the placers on the map,just drag the letter "i" over to the section and when the drop down shows you can see the placers name and info. just click the map link there and the map-downloads with details of the claims and placers. Also I thought that the white color on the status map means open land and it is OK to metal detect there ,Whats up?
Hey Jeff thanks for all the good info on the Land Matters.org sight lots of stuff there I’ll be studying. Say thou with all the gun hating stuff going around today and with all the gun crazy lawmakers in congress could you please practice better gun safety in your videos I realize it’s showmanship and I appreciate that but I believe you’re in a position where you could tremendously help improve 2A progress with proper gun handling in your program. Thanks for listening.

thank you Jeff I always like to see a slim with you are you always have a heart of Adventure thinking for the unknown

You came out with this video in the nick of time!! We need to focus on something other TP shortages and dying of the Corona virus!
Let's not play down that hundreds of thousands of lives have been/are being lost on unprecedented, cataclysmic, world wide devastation huh?
But still, I love his attitude too!!! You're right on about that too. He's our Distraction like Shirley Temple was in the 30's for our parents. Aaawwwh. There's really nothing new under the sun. Just reruns to the new learners. Amazing , gold mining has been around since forever, I guess. Or almost.

Great topic. Thanks Jeff & Slim.
