    When will the crushing video be coming out? ❤️💛💚 Really can't wait to see all the juicy gold in there!

    "If you get it out by hand its worth twice as much" This is so true and with much more then gold.

    @mcbhomis ปีที่แล้ว +37

    A lot of TH-cam channel collaborations come across awkward but you two seem to always hit it off. You guys seem to be both both having a good time together while showing us some cool stuff. Definitely a case where the sum of the parts are greater that than the whole. Thanks!

    • @mwnciboo
      @mwnciboo ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Agreed - I think Dan's prospecting know how, combined with Matt's practical and processing know how and equipment - they both talk the language of science, chemistry and mathematics - Assaying and analysing - plus both have good differing characters and can bounce off and are deferential each other making a nice natural presentation style - is a rare thing.

    At 5:46 you can see an intercect of 2 quartz stringers. I was told that those spots are know to contain gold. I hope to test that out one day 😆

    Hi Jason.
    Giving some thought to adet 2, and remembering how a geologist explained why you find gold on the foot wall, if I could, I would set blasting charges to drop the whole ceiling and expose the vein. It seems like a viable option right now

    • @44070Swinger
      @44070Swinger ปีที่แล้ว

      If memory serves, he got "in trouble" with the Mining Ministry a few years ago while he was using the micro charges here on the Blue chip.

    • @Mikkelltheimmortal
      @Mikkelltheimmortal ปีที่แล้ว

      @@44070Swinger you are correct. However, it is possible to get permits for explosives, yet I don't think Dan is able to get them because he is a micro miner. I think he would have to hire a company to do it for him

    Have you tried a hand-held pin-pointer type metal detector in these situations? That way you find the chunks of gold by running the detector along the quartz seam.

    I've run across quite a few mines in my state and to find a couple of guys close to my home filming that good stuff was just fun. I look forward to the next videos you guys put out you guys really seem to work well together. Thanks for the great watch and awesome help identifying some of the things I have seen and was curious about. There's one place in particular real close to me that has that same type of vain I think I'm going to go back and do some prospecting and see if it contains any of that elusive gold. Thanks again for the great content.

    An one ounce slug out of a 12 gauge shotgun would drop that overhanging rock no problem. Another case where echo-mapping would be highly useful to tell exactly where the mine goes. I definitely feel like there might be more to that mine that just wasn't uncovered.. you'd just have to get the permits to break out the C3 to go after it.
