    So very cool, even plan old rock hunting. Finally, made it to Vegas, but little desert is left. The out of state builders and the over population have houses almost up the mountain sides now! Have to drive far through heavy traffic to find desert. Water prospecting may be more important now!

    we should highlight parts of this reel ( 6:05 ) like your average boomers flying around their private helicopters on their acres of land for uranium to the government. just to piss the zoomies off even more

    35K bonus for finding high grade ore, while a lot in todays money, had to have been a total fortune in its own right in this time period

    • @BuddyLee23

      Looks to be >$400k in 1950 and >$300k in 1959. Roughly around $350k for most of that decade.

      Your dad and his friend was looking in the wrong place trust me because my dad went there with a friend and I'm now living off of his findings and he is a black man on top of that do you know how long ago that was it's very odd during those times to see a black man in the mines

    Hey tree huggers! Did you hear that? 2oz of uranium has the same power as 800 train cars of coal! You could power a lot of EVS and your electric stoves with it!

      This is not new information.🙄
      Explain where you plan to put all of the nuclear waste.

      Exactly.
      If we built enough nuclear sites to power the nation we would be buried under giant casks of nuclear waste in 100 years.

      @@Acer_Maximinus Apparently you have never looked at a power plant from the sky. Start there, and then tell me how many casks are actually visible. Nuclear power plant waste is very small. Then go look up Onkalo and see how Finland solved this problem years ago. Last, shut off CNN!
