    So I’m in westernNC also (Rutherford co) and been dredging my creek and have a lot of silver colored material ( heavy like gold but not lead) and some of my gold is mixed with it. Any idea what it is? If you have a IG I can send you a pic to see it if you want. Thanks

    • @BenzoGold79
      @BenzoGold79  4 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      That area has mercury gold, could be natural or from old miners.Acts like gold but silvery and turns other yellow gold same way in a vile. No problem thats gold!!!. Toxic! Do not try to burn off mercury without researching hazards. There are public mines in thay area off HWY 221 with professionals that can help you remove the mercury from your gold safely. Awesome find. Gold luck👋✌😎⚒

    I'm the same way when I hit a creek here I consider it my alone/me time and it's therapy. I found a huge beaver dam last time in the woods. That's something I wonder about that could change weather or not gold's coming down stream anymore? I'm trying upstream from ole Beaver dam next time. Thanks Benzo stay safe.

      Benzo Bonanza Mining&Prospecting Definitely wasn’t a 🦨! Thought so for a few pans! Yeah we might need a restrictions coordinator or something if we don’t have a safety coordinator! Yeah it was epic for sure! Man that was a day for the record books!! 🍀🍺⛏🇺🇸

    Dayuuum! What a gorgeous day out there to be alive brother! I loved that gold, boy, cleanup 1, 2 or 3...all awesome! Gotta tell ya, the shot of that dragonfly laying her eggs in the sand was marvelous. How's the temp on that water, has it warmed up yet, or still pretty cool? Well Benzo, you got a nice spot there, away from everyone and it's got the yella! Take care and we'll catch ya later! ⛏🍀 🦋💪👍😎

      @BenzoGold79  4 ปีที่แล้ว

    Beautiful place and I learned a little bit too I normally just go from one inside Bend to the next and check behind trees and big rocks and walk By the long straight spots but I guess I need to check them on the shallow side as I go

    • @BenzoGold79
      @BenzoGold79  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yeah man. You ,me and everyone else has smashed the bends. Best chance for me is any spot that hasn't been worked recently. The pay streak is different for moderate and heavy floods and some corners have zero gold cause the flood bypass it,, the heavy impact can be long way upsteam. Thanks for watching ✌👍👍🍻🍻🍻⚒🇺🇸🦨🚫
