Oh wow! You two must have been in a very southern region of Arizona to come across the beautiful stolzite crystals. Love the color combos! 10:19 !! Great job on the drywasher Boulderdash🔥💯
now thats some chunky Monkers right there ....good job you two on getting into that virgin ground ..... that 4 tray dry washer is fantastic ....we have seen it first hand and it works like none other .... you did a great job on the build .... now we just need an excavator to feed it hahhahahahaah ...keep'em coming and stay cool out there ...its getting warmer.
Great work! Talk about the big guns… I’ve seen some banks that look like it would take a machine to dig into, but there just isn’t a way to get one in there. Now my buddies have a mini excavator that is about to need a new home/area of operation, but they just dig and detect. I think that dry wash setup would make for more productive days for sure! Looking forward to more!
So much fun to see all that shiny in the riffle tray. That place is really loaded, and the old-timers missed it. Thanks for showing the deposition too ! 1/2 oz / day is really good pickens ! Great video. Best of luck to you guys. Maybe see you up here someday ? 🤠👍⛏⚒
@@arizonaheatwave4080 I agree regarding the weigh in but the cleanups are done off site with armed guards. As for the dry washer, contact boulderdash for current pricing and availability. Boulder5dash@gmail.com
Have u tried to beep the area they have dug up along the I17 near the crown king exit? I’d imagine you could find something since it’s all dug up. Sometimes I want to pull off the road with my detector and give it a shot.
Fantastic video!!! Wish i could dig with a backhoe. Still wondering though about the Morristown area claims. I below to bothe the GPAA and the Roadrunners. A ton of claims up there, but i am sure not finding much. I am finding gold, but 0.10 for 200 shovels full through my drywasher isnt worth the effort. Wish we could get together for an hour or two to just walk some of those claims to see if i am doing something wrong. I have checked my tailings off my drywasher and there is no gold so i know i am running it correctly. I am not trying to make a living doing this but hope to get alot closer to a half a gram per trip. I also live closer to the Tucson area and would love to explore down that way if there were some areas that had some good gold. I gave been at this desert mining now for over three years and just cant figure it out. Thanks again Red
The roadrunners have over 200 mining leases in Arizona. Consider moving on to other areas besides the Morristown placers. Chances are you may be working ground that has already been worked.
im curious guys. when the notice of intent was filled out. was the reason test holes? or im in Ca know how they are here im coming your way hoping for real digging by next spring.
Jee..ma..nee.. it looks like you guys are dealing with the same influx of Buffalo Gnats that we just encountered. Swarms of em. But we got no gold. Good job out there guys.
Great video as usual guys. Question though ... when you vacumn those ripple trays aren't you vacuuming some gold as well? Do you then process that vacuum dust?
The purpose is to vacuum the gold. We just leave some behind to look at in the tray. Gobs of gold gets sucked up that we don’t see. What winds up in the vacuum is what gets processed
@IBRAKEFORBEDROCK I had a feeling that was the case but needed confirmation. You guys are killing it! Thanks for the gold vids as I now live vicariously through them now living back in NH.
So how easy is it to set up? I know Both of you have hundreds if not thousands of hours dry washing and know how to set one up perfectly but how would it work for a newbie? Great video and gold and the crystals were extremely interesting thanks for sharing see you on the next one👍🏼👊🏼
It couldnt be easier to set up . Boulderdash has made the new improved version exceedingly simple. Even some angles are pre-set The original version has been in use since 2016-present day so everything learned from that was put into the new model.
Here’s the difficulty of making these videos people wanna know your source they wanna know how much you found then they scour the videos to see any markings of where you could be not saying that you’re one of these people, but you need to put yourself in their position they don’t know any of us well some of us might know them I don’t personally but there’s so many claim jumpers now and these guys are like private investigators you post one clip on RUclips next thing you know you got 10 people that post that they know where that is I had these big plans of videoing my adventures posting everything on RUclips then when me and my friends would go out on our claims bu I started speaking to some of these guys and they’re like don’t post mountains. Don’t post the rocks because people will find your area so quick. when I was really new to this I would ask those questions all the time and mine wasn’t to be nosey I was just trying to learn, what I’ve learned the most is you can’t trust anybody look how much money we spend on our tools and the gas to get out there and than for some jerk to come out and claim jump and take part of our profits. It’s a hard one to swallow and I’m not finding anything close to what these guys find, I’ve only been doing this 3 1/2 years so I’m new to this still.
@@IBRAKEFORBEDROCK sweet, thanks for knowledge. I've never looked for gold in my life, but want to. It seems I never see folks using those old pans in water. It seem metal detectors are where it's out these days. I'm way too new to buy a dry washer or water sluice. I will buy a Minelab. I will buy the best one (I don't care how much it cost.) Looks like you like using a VLF and a Pi.
Never a meteorite, but it would have to be small enough to get through the grizzly screen. I`d probably recognize an iron though if I saw it. Fingers crossed 🤞🏻
@@IBRAKEFORBEDROCK i was not doubting you, i was unaware that there was a crystal that could survive in the creeks that was that heavy. Which after looking it up, the mohs is 2-3 which is pretty soft and the facets looked like they were in good shape. You guys are awesome and thank you for the videos.
What is the green rock, Visit New Zealand next, like Pauli, the Currency rate is low at the mo, Americans can take unlimited dollars out of NZ, and you can hunt TAR, not Eels,
Boy do I miss your humor Boulder Dash! You are awesome.
Still my favorite desert-rat prospectors!
Oh wow! You two must have been in a very southern region of Arizona to come across the beautiful stolzite crystals. Love the color combos! 10:19 !! Great job on the drywasher Boulderdash🔥💯
Adam and Bolderdash that was a NASTY CLEANUP!!! HEAVY TRAYS RIGHT THERE Keep up the good work!
Thank you sir 👍 Glad ya stopped by
now thats some chunky Monkers right there ....good job you two on getting into that virgin ground ..... that 4 tray dry washer is fantastic ....we have seen it first hand and it works like none other .... you did a great job on the build .... now we just need an excavator to feed it hahhahahahaah ...keep'em coming and stay cool out there ...its getting warmer.
Its tripple digits now , and boulderdash is hard at the mining in rough country.
Great job guys lots of gold! Also great sales pitch. The super drywashers are awesome and people, Boulderdash knows his SH#*.........
Yes the new version of the super drywasher is simply mind blowing
tell boulder dash I emailed him!
@@boltspec He is in the field but will get back with you when he has service. It wont be long.
This is the best dry washer video I have ever seen, thank you!🤯⛏️🇺🇲
Dude , we have some killer dry washer videos in the video section. Thank you for the comment! ⛏️🎧

You can sure run a lot of ground, and definitely increase the gold numbers. ⛏️ Thanks for stopping by Randy

Tough work but heavy equipment makes things so much easier! Glad you stopped by Allan
What a great day. You guys rock . Blessings
Vacuuming the riffles is my favorite part to watch! Nice job guys
I love watching videos where people find huge amounts of gold still in this day and age. So cool to watch. Good work you guys 🫡🫡⛏️⛏️💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
Thanks 👍
Great job 👏
Always love the drywashing vids
Thank you so much 🙏
Looks like a blast
Jez guys, sell some gold and replace that dry washer cloth. :) Excellent finds! Good luck to ya.
Ha ha , somehow the cloth doesent last long when tons of material are dropped on it 🤣 Nice to hear from you !
Be really nice to see a weigh in after everything is cleaned
How much for that dry washer?

No, never really thought about it. I think we`re doing pretty good as it is. Good luck if you give it a go !

Well done you guys!
Do I need a permit to prospect for gold nuggets using a metal detector on BLM land or National Forest land?
Not that I know of. The main thing is not to be on someones mineral lease
Do you guys also take your cons or even your tailings home and wet-wash them?
No need to take the tailings. the gold has been removed already.
The cons are taken off site for final cleanup.
How much the dray-washer?
Depends on what size you get. You can email
boulder5dash@gmail.com for more information.

You can prospect for gold in Vermont if yer think'n about it.

@@IBRAKEFORBEDROCK cool thanks Adam
You need to include your total clean out I want to see all the gold you found besides that great video
I agree. 👍😉💯🔥
How much do you earn for a days work David? What did you make last year? Like the exact figure?
I agree but its a very difficult task. The refining gets done on a later date. I`ll keep that in mind though for future videos
Here’s the difficulty of making these videos people wanna know your source they wanna know how much you found then they scour the videos to see any markings of where you could be not saying that you’re one of these people, but you need to put yourself in their position they don’t know any of us well some of us might know them I don’t personally but there’s so many claim jumpers now and these guys are like private investigators you post one clip on RUclips next thing you know you got 10 people that post that they know where that is I had these big plans of videoing my adventures posting everything on RUclips then when me and my friends would go out on our claims bu I started speaking to some of these guys and they’re like don’t post mountains.

^5! says it all!
You guys are amazing
That fatty nugget was unexpected! Niceee!
Do you ever use an old-school gold pan to find place in water or is that a waste these days?
Taking a sample from bedrock and using a pan to find the gold is quite traditional, and used often
@@IBRAKEFORBEDROCK sweet, thanks for knowledge. I've never looked for gold in my life, but want to. It seems I never see folks using those old pans in water.

Those tungsten mineral crystals are way cool! Have you guys ever found an iron meteorite in the cons amongst the heavies?
Never a meteorite, but it would have to be small enough to get through the grizzly screen. I`d probably recognize an iron though if I saw it. Fingers crossed 🤞🏻
Man, excavator and macro gold both?! Except for the heat you have it so easy. 🙂
Private land?
🤣 Glad you stopped by Keith ! The land has secured mineral rights
Excellent! Up here there are a lot of patented claims. Most have timber rights and often water rights also.
I build dry washers in Western Australia mine do 35 tonnes per hour I make my own trays to handle commercial operation
Excellent ! do you have a website ?
@@IBRAKEFORBEDROCK no I can send some photos pm me
AWESOME video ,New Sub my friend
Excellent, glad to hear it ! Thank you
7:05 what kind of crystal? Crystal with specific gravity of 8 or so?
So far, it looks like Stolzite. The SG matches , color , and crystal habits all seem to be pointing to that.
@@IBRAKEFORBEDROCK i was not doubting you, i was unaware that there was a crystal that could survive in the creeks that was that heavy.

@@levimichael1136 I think we are right next to the source. Must be coming of a slope really close
Awesome day guys! Btw what the heck is stolzite???
So the red crystals may not be stolzite.( could be a Vanadium mineral ) But we do find yellow Stolzite crystals which is a lead tungstate ? mineral
Yo❤
If I could get them all day every day to get a bill paid off id be happy
Agreed !
What is the green rock,
Visit New Zealand next, like Pauli,
the Currency rate is low at the mo,
Americans can take unlimited dollars out of NZ,
and you can hunt TAR, not Eels,
So you want me to leave gold to find gold ? Man, I cant afford to go to new Zealand anyway 🤣🤣
@@IBRAKEFORBEDROCK Pauli can visit here n swim for his gold , =We dont have Gold in North Island of NZ, if you want to share that Complaint,
@@IBRAKEFORBEDROCK The currency rate is low, and you can take unlimited dollars, your American Embassy gives you a travel grant if you ask for one,
