  • Thai is day 1 and 2 of our six day trip to Washington for beach mining at Cape Disappointment. The beach is absolutely loaded with fine gold. The second half of the trip was fantastic it takes awhile to figure where to dig to find the best gold.

    I do UK beaches, most of the beach is pretty barren, but try this, find a spot where the seawashes against a cliff, over 95% of the gold i find is in the first 10ft under the cliff.. the waves hitting the cliff and bouncing back then hitting the oncoming wave create a lowpressure zone and drop the heaviest material out first.
    Ive tested all areas of the beach and under cliffs was always best. ive a video trying to show it if you want to look

      Great information we tried the cliff area and it wasn't that good. Like I said before I am not a full time beach miner the ocean is 500 miles from where I am but it sure was a lot of fun. I will check out your videos thanks for letting me know.

    I think those Lego mats are the Greatest, I will be making some, for myself, and I just hope I get someplace to use them. We don't have any Gold in the Central part of Florida, unless you find a sunken ship someplace that had Gold on it.

      I lived in west central Florida, (Pinellas and south Pasco county's), for 27 years and the only gold that I found was in the orange groves unless you mined uranium out of the phosphate mines in the middle of the state.. :)

    That is some really fine gold! Looks really fun, although I once lived in WA and I know it can be a bit wet. Nice video, the gold in the mats shows! I am heading to AZ for a 4 day desert prospecting trip next week. peace out

    • @alanrobertson2510

    Have been watching your progress with the silicone LEGO mats with much interest wondering how it would work on the black beach sands, and here you are in my own backyard testing it out for me. How cool is that. The weather does get gnarly on that beach but it sounds like you had it all. How do like that heavy sand? Lots of magnetite. About All I can do is 20 buckets on a good day when the days start to get longer. Sub micron gold for sure. Check it under a micron for sure. Rob is definitely the man in the know I got my cube from him. Many thanks for the vid.

    • @alanrobertson2510
      @alanrobertson2510  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Oh that black sand is heavy! I f I was going to be a beach miner I would make my mats black that way you can see the gold. The last 2 days we went from dawn to dusk and I was beat. Rob is the man on beach mining for sure. Good luck on the beach.

    • @thegoldscrounge6662
      @thegoldscrounge6662 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks for the comeback Alan. Yes Rob from Washingtonbeachmining has it dialed in and has the special mats for extracting the fines. He also is working with Doc from gold hog on the new wave mat for flour extraction. Washington beach black sands is the ultimate test. Drop a note if you plan on coming out this way again.

    • @alanrobertson2510
      @alanrobertson2510  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hi Aaron yes you can run a high banker and use a suction nozzle on the beach the problem is how to get the water there is no way that I can see to keep a suction hose in ocean with 10 foot high waves coming in. Everyone that I saw running on the beach was hauling buckets of water up to their set ups.

    It is a very quite machine.
    Also did you have to get a permit to mine on the beach?
    One last double question. Have you compared the gold washout volume between the top and the bottom boxes and if so, what have you found?
    Sorry so many question, I just find this very interesting.
    Thanks and good luck!

    • @alanrobertson2510
      @alanrobertson2510  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hello. I am running a recirculating sluice box setup with a 1200 gph 12 v bilge pump. The sluice and mats are made by me.
      What you need to have with you for a permit is the Washington gold and fish pamphlet that you can get free online.
      I have done that before and it is a ton of work. Beach gold super fine and hard to separate from the heavy black sand. Nothing gets all the gold the first run you can keep on running it and get more gold. It's like a gift that keeps on giving.

I had always heard there is gold in the oceanwater but wasn't profitable to mine. I live in Arkansas so mining prospects here seem slim (except Murfreesboro diamond mines). If one scheduled vacations where this type of beach mining is possible it would be an awesome addition to any trip. Thanks for posting!

    I'm glad that you found gold but is it enough to be worth while? That black sand is volcanic. Usually particle gold is more associated with deposits of quartz, granite and bed rock as well as black sand.

    • @alanrobertson2510

      Hi Jeff It was worth while for me It was something I have wanted to do for a long time. I know people that can get up to 5 or 6 grams a day that would make it worth it. The gold comes out of the Columbia river that cuts right through gold country and then is washed up on the beach. Thanks for watching.

      @@alanrobertson2510 It just seemed to me that it was a long way to drive from Montana to Washington State for a bit of dust. I live here in West Virginia where the gold is liquid black or 30,000 feet deep and gaseous. (Marcellus shale gas :) There is a lot of history here dating back beyond the civil war. I am contemplating the purchase of a metal detector but with my spinal problems, I can't walk very far at a time. Maybe it'll get me off my butt. :) I moved here 18 years ago from Florida where black sand is unheard of. When we were having our land leveled here, I had the dozer driver shave an 18 inch high knob off the side of a hill to lessen it's grade. I was walking behind him and there I found a perfect horse shoe. No rust damage or anything. The red clay here kind of keeps the oxygen and, at 18 inches deep, most of the moisture away from such items. I like to watch the Alaska gold shows on TV and the detector hunters here on TH-cam. I had heard that back in the middle 1800's they were finding softball sized nuggets as shallow as 4 feet deep in North Carolina!!! People were selling their land in 4 foot by 4 foot claims and making a killing over the normal value of the land for farming. That "gold rush" didn't last long and some scientists conjecture that in the distant past, a gold laden meteor may have exploded over the area rather than it being a geological deposit. I'd like to get a war surplus mine sweeper and check out that place. They couldn't have found all of it. :) Have a happy, Jeff M.

    Sooo nice to see sooo much gold, and you didn't have to freeze (too much) for it. If you ever feel like remaking your mats you CAN color them by adding cheap Acrylic Paint (.$0.87 to $1.67 Hobby stores, wal-mart etc.) to the silicone goo after the water bath. Mix it in quickly and completely and form the mat as normal. Takes about 20 mins to setup. I Avoid Cobalt Hue as that seems to inhibit the silicone setting up. Your videos are so much fun to watch when you are using your own equipment that you put together!

    • @alanrobertson2510
      @alanrobertson2510  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks for the tip we had a great time. I also found a way to color the mats by adding food coloring to the silicone before it's put into the dawn dish soap. Since I dig in mostly clay and you can't see the mats after five minutes anyways it's not that big of a deal for me. glad you enjoy my vids Thanks for watching.

Just need to find something that I can use for the burn chamber that I can get out once the cement has set up. Also looking into cutting the parts out of firebrick with a hole saw. Hope to have something soon.
