Truly appreciate your "Stop Mercury" initiative. After reading about and seeing gold recovery in old gold mines in California back in the early 70's, I was reminded of that with some of your previous videos and had an Oh-No moment thinking of the health hazards people [mostly unknowingly] endure to make a living. Thanks for trying to make a change.
Yes , you right about mercury been very dangerous for people, but also some people created inmune and eventually past this to their children's, that is the reason that everyone have a different inmune system, like for example, I am Puertorrican, born and grow up in the island and few years ago I finding out that they make a DNA text to every different people in every country and we the Puertorrican have the best DNA , and I wonder why , and I realize that are ancestors ( Taino Indians) are decent from the people that coming down from the north pole went the Ice ege like thousands and thousands years ago , meaning that Puertorrican probably have a strong inmune system because that.
@@ralamo65able thats not how that works, immune system fights against bacteria's ,virus and cellular matter, not none organics, heavy metals cant, and will poison. your body will not fight back from it, it takes 10-50 or more years for it to cause an effect. please do your research before Making misinformation. also to your linage... yes, and no, same as mine... i would say, any ones lineage, that has less technology advances, have way higher immune systems, because there not helped with vaccine and medicines, if ur just talking about the immune systems, but if we were talking about, the longer ur linage went with out Proper medical assistances, and technologies, that supported such health, you will have a stronger immune systems, but that dos'nt mean that it will save you from, strong viruses/diseases... Always something out there bigger or stronger, that wants to kill us, even if its a microbe.
Charge a man for a fishing rod that needs constant upkeep and sundry ancillary equipment and you profit of his fishing forever. Mining the miners, so altruistic.
He ain't teaching them shid! How is he teaching ? When you grow up and turn white then you can too have this device I have Infront of you ! They been digging pot hole mines thousand acres to sell dirt cheap the cranberry gem stone very rare and beautiful but we keep them poor so pillage all of the wealth comes easy and why he's showcasing people as he is some how giving !
yea, just go where its warm and you never have to worry about a cold winter. in jamaica they live very relaxed, and simple life, too! its not just africa

Nice compilation of your former work Jason. I spent about 5 years mining in equatorial Africa in several different countries and always found the locals at the mine site to be wonderful human beings. Bandits on the road or shysters in the cities were a different thing. One alluvial diamond mine I worked at had an issue with artisans who were 'Grandfathered' on the licence. I drilled off the river to the south of us and proved that the placer went well west of our boundary so I took a few of the senior village gents out and showed them exactly where the survey line was. I waved my arm and said that 'all of this is open to you.' They dug a crater the size of three football fields in about six months and brought me most of those diamonds to buy from them.
Thank you MBMM LLC for helping Kenyans mine without poisioning themselves with mercury vapors and through dermal absorption. Spreading that good old USA spirit. I commend you!
Such incredible people! I love how they find a problem and fix it immediately with what they have on hand. No waiting for a prefab trough for two weeks; they find a solution right away and implement it. It's good that more environmentally friendly/health friendly methods are being phased into their operations
I agree. I lived in the Virgin Islands. The people used to fix things. It was amazing what can be fixed with little to nothing. I learned so much there. It helps me now. It’s too bad that things are made to throw away now. I am a classic car / hot rod mechanic. I always try to fix things first. I’ve been told that I’m magic.
Cam, that was the third or fourth time watching a video about the people who mine in Kenya. I was also amazed at their simple, but amazing, ingenuity. Beautiful people who are caring and community-driven!
So thankful to you Mr Jason to learn that you visited my country Kenya and more specifically Western Kenya where I'm coming from to share your knowledge selflessly, Be blessed abundantly 🙏
Great video Jason! I’m amazed every time you show mining. The amount of work required just for 1 gram of gold. And we can buy it for an hour work at a desk. I was horrified to see Mercury being burned and in nitric bath in open air next to onlookers.
What a great watch and educational in so many different ways. I love your goals of reducing the usage of mercury, and other toxic chemicals all while empowering individuals. Thank you for taking the time and sharing this with all of us Jason.
I've only gotten through about 25% of the video, but I'm really enjoying it. Thank you for such an awesome first look at their process. Thank you for helping them to step away from the use Mercury. Now back to the rest of the video.
Jason: you hit the jack-pot with this vid. !! Glad to see you involved with Mercury free mining tech. Look forward to see more follow-up with your trips "Back to Africa". Three cheers from the PNW contribution.
I love the Kenyans bubbly spirits and smiles. Hard working and creative mindsets are inspiring! I must SERIOUSLY acknowledge the Goldsmith's creatine talents with all that jewelry at the end of the video! Every single one of those pieces that I saw was nothing less than a masterpiece of creativity and talent! I would have sat here glued to my seat for two or three hours if I could have seen them make some of that stuff! Whereas most of us are focused on where to get how to find and then process, etc. Thank you for the great video!
I really like this "Stop Mercury" initiative. That is something that can help not only people working in small primitive mining but to our environment.
Awesome project. People really shouldn’t poison themselves to get the gold. Get rid of the mercury process. Love the use of crushers and sluices 👍 Thank you for caring for others 👍
You are making a big difference in their lives . You have done a great thing . I hope you feel good on the inside . It makes me feel happy knowing there are people that truly care for other people you are one of those people that truly care . God bless you and your family plus your friends
Absolutely an amazing video. Your depiction of the gap between the haves and the haves not has very rarely been shown so well. Thank you for working to bring the technology of today to people who only know how things have worked in the past and have not been shown there is a better way.
This is an amazing video! The generated close captioning is very helpful here and surprisingly accurate. These people are so friendly and open with you, I know you gave them some equipment but I think you must have a way with people.
This primitive engineering is incredible! Already they have adapted your beautiful sluice to their local needs. Your sluice table will greatly reduce the mercury pollution. We can only hope that they can eventually forego the use of all mercury as they learn new methods around the sluice table.
I'm pleased you are helping them upgrade their milling practices. what a spooky and dangerous place to work, mercury above and undermechanized underground. Just like mining was practiced for thousands of years before modern technological advances. I hope they manage to upgrade their practices. The cobalt mining in Congo by big tech is unhuman. At least these people are doing what they can to improve. Good luck and keep up the help.
You are a long way from Washington state my friend. I loved that you are teaching them mercury free mining. See the whole operation in Kenya was eye opening to say the least. Hard workers no doubt. Makes me appreciate what I do have more.
Thank you for sharing that, Jason! It was fun to watch with my morning coffee, and the people are so amazing! They're so ingenious and were soaking up everything you could teach - and I think you may have learned a thing or two as well 🤯 I look forward to seeing more of your adventures, wherever you go...
The truth is he is helping himself sell his equipment and collecting all this detailed information from source to import point for well known reasons (nothing to do with the welfare of these poor ppl interest, rather to be used by other organizations to shut down the operations or use it to sanction the country and harm the whole population. Are we allowed to go to this man's country filming ppl and asking all such question. I don't think so.
@@shalal8746 Mercury exposure at high levels can harm the brain, heart, kidneys, lungs, and immune system of people of all ages. High levels of methylmercury in the bloodstream of babies developing in the womb and young children may harm their developing nervous systems, affecting their ability to think and learn.
@Shalal not sure what you're getting at, but when you're burning mercury off 3' from a young kid, it is not good. The machinery works! I'm thinking the health of your people would matter...no?
@@Pa.PatriotProspecting You know exactly what I mean. Every goat in the field knows the danger of mercury to the ppl and the environment. Who produces this harmful substance and profit from selling it to these ignorant ppl? Why is it not banned or restricted like drugs, weapons and other dangerous substances? The intention was about collecting data and selling equipment. I never heard any advice been lend to these ppl, or even telling them about the dangers of Mercury because they don't care, they came for another reason.
@Shalal you're reaching... I get that you may feel threatened by someone trying to sell something, but its beneficial for the safety of your people. That alone outweighs the costs immeasurably! Stop being so mad, help stop the polluting the world with poison...be better!
What an amazing piece of story. Honestly I'm from Kenya i love this man Jason, he has great heart. As a Kenyan and on behalf of Kenya say thanks to this
Jason, thank you for sharing a riveting, spellbinding, and educational experience in the gold fields of Kenya! The primitive ways of mining make me look like a lazy person! Or maybe, spoiled rotten? Either way, thank you for sharing your shaker table and sluices with the miners. Just think about how much gold they have lost through the years. This equipment will help them tremendously and bring some ease to back-breaking tasks. Don't even get me started on the mercury use!!! As an RN for 30 years, there has been a case in which a patient almost died by mercury poisoning. The BP meter was broken... no one knew. Every time the patient had her BP checked, tiny balls of mercury ran out the top and onto her bed. The point is that mercury = increased chance of poisoning every time it touches your skin.
What a gem of a video to somewhat randomly come across, the work you are/were doing is admirable and the fact there is not the slightest hint of fear in your voice even 40 meters underground in mines that no sane person would go near says a lot about your dedication to your project. THIS is how you win the respect of the natives in a hurry!! The shots of the dubai market were eye opening as well, my lord the quantities within are staggering!
Dangerous is an understatement, mad respect to the man who feeds their families by risking the only thing they have, and thats their health and their life. bless you
Great video Jason. Helping small scale miners is great. Helping them get away from mercury is even a bigger thing the impacts on their health. Great karma Jason good work.
Wow that is eye opening. Such hardship for whatever they can scrap up. Seeing how the lady handled the mercury bare handed like that and burning the mercury off in open fire...they must know the danger right? Just another day of surviving. Thanks for showing this and helping how you can.
Jason, you are one helluva Mzungu!! Amazingly fascinating and educational video. They are some seriously hard working folk in Kenya. Thanks for sharing.
Excellent experience, I am from Angola and I been watching the channel for while, and pretend to invest in one of your machines in the future. Wish you sucesses!
This episode came at great time, even though it was from a year ago. I missed it. I'm running through ten pounds of tailings. Panning of of course. Great long video, thanks.
I loved this video! I found you due to your collab with Dan Hurd and after watching this video I subscribed. Please please continu your work with African or South American small miners. Helping them with slicing would make a huge difference!
Well done Jason, what a wonderful project to get rid of the mercury etc and save some lives. Should also improve the recovery and get the miners better paid.
Awesome video Jason. I really like it when we can see how things are done in undeveloped countries. I wonder about their surprise when they see how well the newer equipment works. I’m sure there are holdouts who like the old lol. I’ve seen that here. Please keep bringing us along with you to see more of this stuff. Thank you.
Hi Jason..I have been following your episodes since you started...now you are not just a great entertainer..you are my Hero!! what a great job you doing!!
Great video... good initiative helping the Kenyans.... Those gold shops in Dubai....I had no idea... Some of the gold veins are very rich, phenomenally rich... What an eye opener watching all this...
This was truly a great video. I like all your stuff because it's entertaining and educational, but this was even more--a big part of that is the humanity present, and kudos on trying to help people get away from using mercury! Some of that was hard to watch, speaking empathetically, and hopefully the people will see that they don't need the mercury (and have some understanding of just how toxic it is). I can only imagine how hard that was to be around those kids while some of this stuff was going on (let alone just people in general being around it) but also can appreciate that you can't just come in and start telling people "No, you're doing it wrong"--especially as an outsider. All you can do is show them, and hope they see. This was a fascinating look into not just gold mining in Africa, but another culture and how they live their lives, as far as supporting themselves and their families. Also, the one man who said his company only takes 2 bags of the 4 that that miner produced and lets him keep 2 , because it wouldn't be right to take most of it, as he has a family and has to live too, could teach many US companies something about being humane and not strictly ruled by greed. Finally, that gold market at the end was Insane, ha! Thanks again--it was over too soon for me. Peace.
Great video. At work I hear how hard the other employees work . But having traveled the world I know they have it made. Even manufacturing retort for them to recover the mercury would be a huge help. One day the Goat 🐐 Gods will smile at me and I’ll the crusher for the farm. Keep up the great work 👍
It appears you helped many people toward a better life. You and all involved did very well. I look forward to more of this type of productions. What is more impressive is that helping the people was more of a driving force than selling your products.
The underground workings and the hand crush of the ore are an amazing part of the adventure. And the boiling acid as mercury vapor was compelling. The mechanics of the ball crusher, the condition of sluice capture....and the trace of a gold metal from the ground to sales at an amazing gold market simply have me considering my home and that condition I work and relax to daily. A reminder to breathe somehow, free of good natured poverty. I really like your aim to reduce the mercury. M.
I am so impressed with your efforts and generous nature that you teach and offer without degradation. Colonialism has done no good to Africa and those forces are at work today. Thanks for being a big wedge in this and helping people of Africa. Those folks that claim they are from this culture that are now in USA and complain about their state should go back to Africa and attempt life as these good people live with such vigor and at such risk to themselves to supply for their families. Thankyou and God Bless!
i love how quickly they began to create upgrades for the table. i imagine they would also be able to create one on thier own very soon. i cant imagine how much has beem lost in the sluse colection ponds.
Very insightful, and entertaining too. I hope the Kenyans managed to fund a lot of the basic sluices - hopefully having seen the potential they will move over to a mercury free system, and that others will see and do so too. I understand that you're looking at this venture with one eye on the commercial aspects, but even if they produce their own kit your time was very well spent. Great all round.

Jason this is great dude. What a legend. You have forever planted an awesome memory in those folks in Kenya.
Very fine representative for us in Kenya. The respect and personal interest you showed in the people was awesome.
Nice compilation of your former work Jason. I spent about 5 years mining in equatorial Africa in several different countries and always found the locals at the mine site to be wonderful human beings. Bandits on the road or shysters in the cities were a different thing. One alluvial diamond mine I worked at had an issue with artisans who were 'Grandfathered' on the licence. I drilled off the river to the south of us and proved that the placer went well west of our boundary so I took a few of the senior village gents out and showed them exactly where the survey line was.

I’m sure there are holdouts who like the old lol. I’ve seen that here. Please keep bringing us along with you to see more of this stuff. Thank you.
Hi Jason..I have been following your episodes since you started...now you are not just a great entertainer..you are my Hero!! what a great job you doing!!
Jason mate watched alot of your stuff and this is amazing what your doing here 👏
Wonderful initiative! This kind of go-getter attitude to solving problems is what Humanity always needs! Kudos to you all!!
In this one trip, you gave these people so much wealth.
absolutely amazing video, it makes me so glad that there are people like you in the world!
I am from Kenya, residing in the US. This is amazing.
I love seeing how problems are solved with so little money. Thanks for your time and efforts Jason
Great video... good initiative helping the Kenyans....
Those gold shops in Dubai....I had no idea...
Some of the gold veins are very rich, phenomenally rich...
What an eye opener watching all this...
This was truly a great video. I like all your stuff because it's entertaining and educational, but this was even more--a big part of that is the humanity present, and kudos on trying to help people get away from using mercury! Some of that was hard to watch, speaking empathetically, and hopefully the people will see that they don't need the mercury (and have some understanding of just how toxic it is). I can only imagine how hard that was to be around those kids while some of this stuff was going on (let alone just people in general being around it) but also can appreciate that you can't just come in and start telling people "No, you're doing it wrong"--especially as an outsider. All you can do is show them, and hope they see. This was a fascinating look into not just gold mining in Africa, but another culture and how they live their lives, as far as supporting themselves and their families. Also, the one man who said his company only takes 2 bags of the 4 that that miner produced and lets him keep 2 , because it wouldn't be right to take most of it, as he has a family and has to live too, could teach many US companies something about being humane and not strictly ruled by greed. Finally, that gold market at the end was Insane, ha! Thanks again--it was over too soon for me. Peace.
This was so awesome!!! Thank you for sharing and thanking for helping and all your efforts!
Jambo Jason....thank you for helping the poor people of Kenya.....they are truly a deserving bunch of hard working people.
I admire your skill at teaching a different culture and language!!! What a huge undertaking!!!!!
Thank you!!🤗
Great video.
At work I hear how hard the other employees work . But having traveled the world I know they have it made.
Even manufacturing retort for them to recover the mercury would be a huge help.
One day the Goat 🐐 Gods will smile at me and I’ll the crusher for the farm.
Keep up the great work 👍
Excellent video.... Teaching the locals and supplying them with new and better ways to extract the gold is priceless 👍🤓✌️
Thank you for sharing this. I hope that the miners adopt soon and can stay off the mercury in the future.
Amazing to see the ingenuity of people, and see how hard we work to obtain a little Gold. Great video 👍🏻
It appears you helped many people toward a better life. You and all involved did very well. I look forward to more of this type of productions. What is more impressive is that helping the people was more of a driving force than selling your products.
The underground workings and the hand crush of the ore are an amazing part of the adventure. And the boiling acid as mercury vapor was compelling. The mechanics of the ball crusher, the condition of sluice capture....and the trace of a gold metal from the ground to sales at an amazing gold market simply have me considering my home and that condition I work and relax to daily. A reminder to breathe somehow, free of good natured poverty. I really like your aim to reduce the mercury. M.
one of my favorite videos of yours man. Very interesting. I am sure that the people you visited appreciate it immensely.
This is great, absolutely fascinating documentation of how these people perform their tasks to extract minerals. Well done sir!
I am so impressed with your efforts and generous nature that you teach and offer without degradation. Colonialism has done no good to Africa and those forces are at work today. Thanks for being a big wedge in this and helping people of Africa. Those folks that claim they are from this culture that are now in USA and complain about their state should go back to Africa and attempt life as these good people live with such vigor and at such risk to themselves to supply for their families. Thankyou and God Bless!
Greatness is something, Nobility is something else. It's rarely achieved. May your crusades be safe and enthralling. Thank you Jason.
Scary to imagine how sick people can get working with murcury. You are saving lives my friend.
"Come on down in the mine. Don't worry!"
Thanks for posting this Jason - Incredible video!
Jason, i want a shaker table can you help where i can buy 1 please.
i love how quickly they began to create upgrades for the table. i imagine they would also be able to create one on thier own very soon. i cant imagine how much has beem lost in the sluse colection ponds.
This was amazing! Good trip, slucing upgrades, and knowledge. Thank you for sharing this trip
I can't express just how awesome your work is! Fantastic video!
This was an amazing production . Gratitude for everyone involved 🙏
its like a movie, appreciate your effort to try improving their lives with mineral processing.
Very insightful, and entertaining too. I hope the Kenyans managed to fund a lot of the basic sluices - hopefully having seen the potential they will move over to a mercury free system, and that others will see and do so too. I understand that you're looking at this venture with one eye on the commercial aspects, but even if they produce their own kit your time was very well spent. Great all round.
