The San Gabriel River in Southern California has a historical significance for gold prospecting. During the California Gold Rush era, it was known for its placer gold deposits. However, specific data on the average yield of gold per ton of sand from the San Gabriel River is not well-documented in recent times. Generally, placer gold deposits, which are loose accumulations of sand, gravel, and minerals, can vary widely in their gold content. Historical records and anecdotal evidence suggest that yields could range from a few grains to several grams of gold per ton of sand. In more precise terms: Low-grade deposits might yield around 0.01 to 0.1 grams of gold per ton of sand. Average deposits could yield 0.1 to 1 gram per ton. Rich deposits might yield 1 to 10 grams per ton or more. It's important to note that modern-day prospecting yields might be lower due to extensive historical mining activity that has already extracted much of the easily accessible gold. Based on my experience and observations of your methods, it appears that the current process is likely capturing only a fraction of the available gold. If you processed two five gallon buckets of sand, then that is about 6.7% of a ton (134 pounds), in which you generated about 0.070 grams of gold. With that said, there is approximately 1.0448 grams of gold per ton of sand. However, and to reiterate, I feel very strongly that you are losing gold in your process, but the important thing is that you are having fun, and educating people along the way. ~ CHEERS
If 70 pounds of sand made that 70 milligrams gold = 0.0643 Ounces Au per ton of sand. You've had richer runs recently, but that is still rich ore. Maybe your PVC Pipe Concentrator has a higher recovery than panning the head ore?!?
I working on recovering microscopic gold . In that place no gold like people saying but I ménage to get it not a lot but that doesn’t matter when I make a tool I’ll be making gold
hi from nz another good vid thanks your pipe idea for fine gold recovery reminded me a little of the gold drop by sluice goose industries ,have a look thanks again
That stuff looked like it was lousy with silver. If it were clean enough I would suggest a week over some heat with your weak aqua regia. then put it on copper? And give it time. batch them and set them in the sun? If you keep panning that stuff, it all goes out. Whenever you stop, that how much gold is left. The back corners of my pans are super rich. But if I keep panning, no bueno.
My guy who cleans up crystals uses a wash tub and HCL and H20 over a smoldering fire. A couple days? And they clean up fine. He should have tried to precipitate metals.
Perhaps lead as a collector. Can you also cupel in the microwave? Guys swirl the molten lead and use it like mercury to pick up the bits. More Flux? You can protect the metals away from the oxygen Also thin the flux with soda ash / Sodium bicarbonate. Pool Company. You can also add bits of well screened charcoal or use wheat flour to hold a reducing atmosphere. Metals form up best in smokey slightly cooler or more protected. Keeping unwanted oxygen away. This keeps you from burning up metals. I use the lead as collector and use it again next time as in Re-Fine. and you swirl it around when liquid....don't get burned. The only problem is if a crucible fails. Metals can get lost. The lead lets you work with lower temps. In my way of thinking, you only need 2000F for the cupelling off the lead. By the way, you can use Portland =pure cement with an indentation put in it . Press it down good. make a cupel shaped indentation. The lead and lower metals go into the portland. That leaves a bead of only precious metals. I'm loving your shows. I think some gold may yet remain in the dish. But Gold powders can burn and be lost. But that was a very acceptable demonstration of proof of concept. When everyone is in grams per ton, You showed gold in two buckets. If it was easy, girl would be doing it .After you learn a couple more tricks, Girls will be doing it. You are making the world a better place.. I think lead could be a safer place to put your powders. Then Refine...dunk the lead in the next batches Making the lead fine. When it no longer melts easily, you have fine. Then cupel.. I really think you just need to melt the lead. Not all the gold. This may be over heating our precious metals.
Man, I just found the easiest way cheapest way to recover gold why I need to deal with another metals like a lead. It’s not for me. It’s too expensive to do that job.
You see man I try to recover gold cheapest way possible because gold is very small and very little if I start using lead that cost more than that gold what I recovering. Yes, I watching another peoples channels too. I see how they doing, but you know what I don’t wanna spend that much money to recover little amount of gold which one after all is not even worth that money what you put.. so far my way is cheapest way to recover the gold. Just dissolve put stannous chloride and smelt what can be easier than that.
@@myadventure7069 The thing about gold powder is that it can burn up and be lost. Something that keeps gold here with you is economical How much lead do you think you need for that amount of gold. And I dunk the lead back numerous times as in Refining. the Mexican man said if he has lead and sand, he can get precious metals. Getting all the gold within reason. I use very little lead. My hold up has been cupelling. I bought a microwave kiln. I'm going to try to cupel there. I'll let you know something. You are doing fine. Thanks for your shows
The gold I am extracting is microscopic just like yours. I would like to know what the smallest weight you have worked with was and how much you got out. If you don't know exactly, can you tell me an estimate?
I always working with very small amounts of gold.i don’t do estimates how much I just working to found the way to recover smallest amounts of gold from anything

You have a very nice button of gold there. Great work🎉

Is that the sand you were talking about?
No tht is from river gravel. May sand have 0,5 gram gold from one bucket
@@myadventure7069 Awesome! Worthy of my subscription. Keep up the good work. Sincerely, from Silver Spike Prospecting. 😁👍⚒️⛏️
70 miligram not so bad brother.
