@cointector Believe it or not, I once had a full head of hair.... never mind the bald spots these days haha Thanks for following along mate. Third tripod is the charm 😅
Nice through nugget. Pity about the buried can just come off three days of prospecting a few different locations out of Bendigo but no gold.. plenty of good times in the Bosch though. See you around sometime..
@user-cl6xc4bc3q Thanks for following along mate 👍🏻 hope your luck turns around. As you say though, plenty of good times to be had with or without gold.
I recently saw two nuggets dug out when doing a site cut on a new estate at jackass flat one 7g and 5g good luck mate Sebastian way is worth a look whip stick area good luck be safe loads of snake's this year
@Noelzsazsa Thanks for following along mate. I have often fantasised similar thoughts driving past new estates around Bendigo. Glad to hear fantasy can become reality. Have a good Christmas mate.
Nice find mate, i thought i drove past you a few weeks ago in Ascot along Taylor Street as i was heading out towards home in Goornong. If it was you you might remember seeing my creamy(classed as brown) 1981 mazda 323 with not many around
@robertleeimages Must have been my doppelganger. I don't frequent out that way too much mate. That is a great looking vehicle! Hope you enjoyed the adventure mate.
Good nugget mate. Did you take note of how the dirt was orange with gravel where the nugget came out of, where as the other targets were more like garden soil ? Its not a hard and fast rule, but 80% of the time its correct.
@adzoutnabout8666 Thanks mate! I thought a similar thing, but the other 2 nuggets in that area have been in loose loamy soil. It all seems quite waterwarn. I have been told that gold doesn't necessarily have to be too far from the source to become waterwarn. I wonder where exactly its coming from.... Thanks for following along mate.
@@BendigoGoldProspecting its an elluvial process. The gold gets tumbled in the gravel as the ground moves. Water plays very little role in smoothing those nuggets. The ground moves at less than 1 cm per year, and generally its the upper float that moves over the harder clay layers.
Thanks for great videos Ritchie. They are entertaining and enjoyable to watch. Good on you mate.
@philbophilbo4945 Thanks mate! Hope to be getting out a little bit more over the holidays 👍🏻
Well done Ritchie. Enjoy your videos.
