- Its been something of wanted to try for a very longtime, sniping for sapphires and gemstones. Looking online I couldn't see anything or anyone trying this method to fossick for gemstones so I thought what an awesome opportunity to try it out and see if it works. Sure enough it does and I was able to find an array of sapphires, topaz and zircons. I hope you enjoy.

Beautiful day spent with mum and the kids. Too me these gems that joined you on this adventure were the truest gems to have on any adventure. Thanks Levi for a fun filled adventure. You truly are a gem in disguise. Thank you for sharing.
Cripes, this took me back to my own childhood, down Weld River dredging/fossicking!
Cheers, Levi and Fam for taking us on this one!
Well done Levi good for you for having a go at sniping for gem stones, its good to see the family involved as well, great video thanks for sharing.
Family that fossicks together, stays together.
Keep up the great work.
Levi your boys will soak up all your knowledge and skills so keep up the family adventures you are an awesome father and your boy’s will return the love you show for them 10 fold when you and the gorgeous wife grow old.All the best from Scotland and heavy pan’s for life.
It's great to see a new and different type of search. Very nice amd thanks for sharing Levi.
Awesome trip you had with your family. Can't wait until all my boys are a bit older and were able to do stuff like this
The last black Jack looked like a heart to me. What a great family outing!
Hey Levi, I started watching your videos a week ago or so and Im hooked. Great videos. Im new at prospecting and you are teaching me a whole lot!! Keep the videos coming.
While you've had hardships viewers are aware of and likely others we're not. The family and locations suggests a truly blessed life. Much appreciation Levi for sharing just a little of that life.
Thankyou Tim
I found a green stone but I don't know what it is, can you help me please.
Still the best You Tube channel I have ever been lucky enough to come across...way to mix it up Levi...thank you mate 👍
The joy of searching and beautiful nature are things that make you really happy. Greetings from Algeria
What a cool day with the family bud!said it before, but think its awsome that your family love the outdoors and treasure hunting! Thanks cousin Levi!lol
A gold ring with a blue sapphire in it! made from what you have found with your own hands from that beautiful country of yours! That truly is priceless! ✊
Beautiful scenery awesome video thanks for sharing xx
Love that little ‘fossicking’ family… 🥰💎😊🇦🇺❤️
Pretty colours and the stream and ferns so lush. So love the bubble sounds and swishing water to get to sleep 😴 if I wake through the night and have trouble getting back to sleep. Thanks for making these clips of your adventures.
Way cool brother! Nice to see a change from gold and to something equally as awesome! Sweet finds and thanks for sharing, hope you and the family are amazing!
I always love your videos man. What a beautiful place to spend time. Can’t wait for the weather to turn here.
I'm in love with the beautiful flora. So prehistoric
👍🏼 Beautiful Place You Have there Levi! Thanks for Sharing and StaySafe
Love it Levi! You are rockstar in the rocks!
A great day out with the family in another spectacular location. Well done mate and keep up the great content.
Awesome Levi and family.
Thank you.
Andy
Thank you Levi and family for a awesome video I would love to be able to go out and do this with my family
Oh, l just love watching your prospecting, you're awesome.
Good job lad thinking outside the box. 👍
Great to see your family involved in this adventure 😁👌👏👏👏❤️❤️❤️❤️
Now that was awesome congratulations on your haul
Oooh,interesting . Awesome finds 🙌👏🏻👏🏻
Hiya Levi, awesome video mate, those are some really cool gemstones, and worth good money too. I'm a rockahalic so to see beautiful gemstones like those is really awesome 😍. And the whole family had a chance to find some beautiful stones too ❤️.
I hope you and your family, has a awesome blessed day mate. Cheers! Cya!
😺🐟 out!
Another beautiful area of Tassie, great job Levi awesome collection 😎👍
Stunning Levi and beautiful sapphires. Great filming 👍
Another top video mate, i always drive over those rivers, sometime I'm gonna jump in and go for it!
Can’t wait to come over I have a nephew over there might have to have a look around 👍👍👍❤️
Hello, I would be happy if my "mum" would also go panning for gold. I have to bribe the kids with Nürberger sausages. Was a pleasure to see you. Continued success in your fantastic country. Greetings Tom
Awesome gemstones Levi 👍
What a wonderful way to spend a day❤
Spinel polishes up beautifully with a mirror shine on the facets. Much underrated gemstones and great for jewellery.
I watch these types of videos and they make me think of all the stones I want over when Im fly fishing. I know my area has gold and garnets
Awesome that you are doing this with your family..
I have sent you a photo of the ones I got years ago in Inverell in NSW..
Will send you a company that cut mine by the Carat weight and they send back the ones that are not cuttable..
Cheers Famo59 👍🍻🤓⛏
What a beautiful place. I would love to be there. Cool finds.. Have a great day..😎😎😎😎
Grate video levi this is the only one I have ever seen off sniping for gemstones it's a grate idea off using a black light under water
Loved the video! Thanks for sharing!
Looks like you and the Family had a lovely day. Next time your going to do a bit of Mineral sniping, bring an UV torch with you. Topaz will pop out with golden-yellow's as well as the Zircon's which have a more mustard brown glow. Really helps narrow in on patches too. Cheers, love your episodes!
to touch nature, need to have the right
Thanks for sharing.
I'd like to get into a bit of fossicking and I'm totally new to it, any recommended resources?
@@-LanVin ?
Nice! Very beautiful stones! Now let's get back on the gold because nothing in that river is prettier than the yellowstone. Lol when I go up to dig in the mountains I dredge or sluice. When I dig I dig into a half 55 gal. Plastic barrel cut in half the long way with a rope weaved thru to pull it with over to my box. I usually run 7 to 10 half barrels thru my box each day. Would love to see you pick a good spot to dig and run a sluice out there. Thanks for the videos and good luck to you Levi! Joe gold
That spinel looks very similar to the water tumbled obsidian that I find. I find plenty of agate too, but none of those pretty blue sapphires though. Great vid Levi! 👍🙂
Pretty rocks ....cool adventure for the family.... but it aint like gold brother!..lol!
Awesome finds! Keep the videos coming!
Gorgeous stuff !! Cooke to see the difference in blues they can be !!
Gotta love it when you get an idea that's eating at you because you were right.....trust your gut! That's quite a haul! Would a uv light give you a "glowing" edge on some of your gems especially in the darker areas? Quality entertainment....thank you 🤝
Beautiful place. Looks like fun!
Omg this so awesome to watch, funny how gems are everywhere if you know where to look and have the patience. Great videos! I thought this was in New Zealand till I read where you were. Sweet as :)
Excellent results buddy, those spinel actually cut really nice.
cool finds fam. keep on having fun fam. GOLD SQUAD OUT!!!
Gold prospecting is very therapeutic for me specially when striking a good nugget size. But gem hunting is somehow frustrating at some point as getting a gem quality stone is hard, I would usually find minute or a lot with inclusions on it. Sometimes, I end up catching crabs instead 😂
nice one bro cool gemstones
Unreal guys
Beautiful nature and gems.
Great video, thanks for sharing!
Awesome bro! Never thought that would work but actually does, and some amazing results! I think there might be a spot that would be really good for gemstones here in NZ, its got an incredible mix of geolgy and when gold prospecting has about 9 different colours and types of blacksand ranging from brown-black-silver and an insane amount of red garnets of different sizes and some very almost gem like looking material, just not sure if it has any actual good gems as I am currently pretty useless at reconizging them. Keep up the great content!
If you see any orangey ones in those garnets, get back in there! ;)
@@SaltyShaman Thanks a lot! I will definitely keep my eyes out! Getting over there next week so hopefully can have a good look then :)!
Good job brother, well done. Mark H (Bali)
Levi, not sure if you can get your hands on a waterproof black light flashlight, but those sapphires glow if you shine it on them, might make it easier to see in the water.
Really nice video, I love seeing all of you out there having fun, making great memories. Stay well!
I was just thinking that would it help?
What an absolutely gorgeous location! I’m in boring Ontario.
Oh, l do wish l were younger and able to go and do this sort of thing. It looks so amazing seeing all those "Little pebbles" underwater. I am a jeweller and this looks so much fun. Your vid was the first of yours l have seen so l will be looking for more that you've made. Congratulations mate, and lovely to see the family doing it all together. God Bless and cheers for now! 😁😍
That black jack looks amazing cut
Awesome looking river.
This was a great idea, might be some bigger gemstones hiding in there! Just as fun to watch too. It's odd that a creek with so much quartz doesn't have any gold
Granite has gems and sometimes has gold but a lot of the time it’s just made out of quartz that has no gold
Hi, I love your videos, and they are really helping me get an idea of how to start fossicking in the Weld River area. I was just wondering what are the sieves and tools to suck up the sapphire are, and where you got them from. I would really like to use the same tools as you guys so I can use the same methods as you. Also thank you for all you're amazing content!😉
Beautiful natural stones. ……💎
First,now onto the video
I grew up in tassie. When I was a kid we used to go to mole Creek for stones. Give it a try sometime. Used to find alot of fossils there also.
Awesome. Thanks for sharing
Great to see you out sniping for gems they look cool under the water might be hard to see but when it comes down to panning or sniping panning loses out all the time :-) ATB Brad
Great job, thank you
So cool to find them!
Wow...im so amaze...!
That us the most beautiful Forrest I have ever seen.
wow the forest look amazing it would be a dream to explore it and see what kind of creature and plants live there ... let's protect our forests and be sure it's still there in the future :)
Snipping, interesting word. I am sick at home with cancer. Thank you for letting me come with your family.
Nice haul!!! I kept looking for a velociraptor to walk out into the river to take a drink! That place looks like Jurassic Park! Stunning!!! Cheers from Atlanta, Georgia USA!!! 🍻🍻🇺🇸🇺🇸💯💯🤘🤘
Yeah is crazy country my gold areas are even more so prehistoric looking
Beautiful
I wonder if they would glow with an underwater black light flashlight making them easier to identify? Very cool concept and great haul all while getting quality family time in. Cheers!
I don’t think so? Maybe the light will catch a bit.
Shill much?
How is to contract to those who groom children?
Looks like it worked very well I’m wondering if you would do better at night with a uv light if sapphires Flores and if you can find a bright enough uv light not that you need to do better lol you did pretty well I’d say might need a bigger snuffer tube though for the big patches. Great video and day with the family even though they got rained out (except the hardcore one that stayed with you 💪🏻💪🏻. Thanks for sharing see you on the next one👍🏻👊🏻
We love finding gemstones although our prospecting takes away from our home, across the sea to a place we staked a claim on common ground, to a remote island. So excited, but so tired and we caught covid, only just turned negative. Then we returned with sapphires and rubies. What a find you did, and we're proud of your hard work and video work in such high quality. Good luck with your gold prospecting! Wendi ETA: Is there red Spinel where you worked?
Can't beat being out with the family mate, great stuff and per usual a beautiful place ⛏️🇦🇺🤠
Awesome episode
We're back TH-cam unsuited us 🇺🇸. Keep swinging 💯 Beautiful stones.
I'd love faceting some of them 💎
Loved this vid, was wondering if you had alluvial gems in tassie, will you be getting any of them cut
You live on a gorgeous Island approximately 1/3 the size of my state, Oregon, with a population of only half a million, and you can drive to gold, Gems, Lobsters and utter beautiful solitude. Sign me up, do I need a sponsor to immigrate? Hint, hint, nudge, nudge : D Great video Levi, I would love to find gems like that!
Watching from Philippines. God bless
P.S. As a suggestion > Try using a wooden frame with a 1/4 " mesh screen
on bottom, add stones and hold overhead to sunlight ! Very easy to reach
up and pluck out the gemstones ! Simple but effective! Best ! Grandpa Ron😊
Wery nice video,grat!🤗
Hi Levi: This has to be a nice check in the win column, material from the cracks alone for one.
Question: At approx 12:09, how much sapphire would you deem cuttable? 10%? 15%? +? -? And can all the remainder be sellable if lapped?
Nice! You should mail one or two of the sapphires to the youtuber Vintage Time to have them faceted!
