    I am honored to know Jeff, and I can tell you that I truthfully know very few people as knowledgeable as he is regarding geology, and prospecting. One of my customers went on his last outing and came back with a handful of nuggets. He was using a metal detector, and had a wonderful informative and profitable time. Become a premium member, Jeff deserves our support considering the education he provides to everyone via his fantastic videos.

    Iv gotta give you alot of credit, because theres not many people on youtube teaching things like this as good as you do. You keep it interesting which makes a persons brain a sponge to learn more than usual. I have personally been on a random education hunt, iv just embarked on fireworks manufacture and chemistry, now im learning this, stuff they dont teach in schools, an the history involved is very intriguing. But also the history is very important, and important that its never forgotten. Many have died in mines making what we today call slave change but that was good money back then. Schools are more worried about confusing children on their sexual preferences, not stuff like this.

I enjoy watching your explorations i have a place i would love to have you dig with me. And get me some learning! My pops was a rockhound and I was too stupid to listen and learn before he was gone. Now I am getting into gold exploration because I have been on a 4x4 kick and well being out i have been finding areas like you find gold in. Thanks for getting me excited to explore more. Have a great one man.

    I agree the stamp mill should be in a museum and restored to working order as an educational tool. Just an idea but maybe could raise a fund to buy it and move to to a place where some volunteers could restore it. I'd like to see it demonstrated.
    Jeff -- so thanks for the educational information its really instructional and I always wanted to be a geologist, maybe not specifically a gold miner but I do really like the explanations and why its important.

I'm surprised there's a placer claim just off the parkway up past the fire station area.

I have learned a lot from watching all your videos and have purchased several items to help me find the gold. If you are willing, I will pay for your trip, stay, and food so you can educate me more on what I need to know. Regardless, I enjoy what you are doing and the knowledge you are sharing.

We have learned a lot. When we go out to the goldfields we will use this information. You never know we may cross paths with your party.

      i've taken two geology classes - long ago- and am still learning. books usually seem to have examples of "perfect" minerals and almost never have examples of rocks in between two or more varieties. learning about faults, dikes, and mining operations is confusing from both books and videos. it seems that actual viewing tours works better. strikes, dips, and interpreting mine layout maps seems even harder. does anyone know of free geology and mining classes online?

    Just become a premium patreon member. I have learned alot about the hard rock prospecting with this channel. Moving up that way April 2019 to prospect so I better be learning all that I can. Jeff Williams if you are ever interested in providing some information on the area and some on regulations of the area it would be much appreciated. Me and the wife are moving up there to strictly prospect and mine. Hopefully I haven't lost my mind lol.
