Awesome that you have a friend like Jason, willing to help educate and inform! Also great that you two have so much in common, and the enthusiasm to learn anything new is contagious with both of you! I love watching both of you together! Where one is not sure, the other has some insight, and vice-versa! When neither has a clue, it heads first into finding an answer!!! Awesome video collaboration!
I’ve been binge watching your episodes for the last few days. I’ve never prospected or panned for gold but I’m already planning my first trip. Thanks for all the awesome, informative videos Dan!
Jason's little sleight-of-hand when he pretended to almost lose the gold. Of course he had it between the fingers of one hand all the time, while he acted like he had it in his other hand and then caught it. You guys are great.
Guys every smelter I've worked at they blood test for heavy metals every 6 months for good reason .Jason if your doing this you really should get tested regularly .
Hey Dan & Jason, Any day with Dan, Jason and Gold is a great day ! I really enjoy being able to tag along via these videos. I am fascinated with the heavy equipment as well as the process of smelting. Thanks guys Stay Safe, Be Well Enjoy Life
Thanks to the both of you. It is good to know that not all mines are productive, all ore taken is unique to each specimen with sulfides. Usually, the deeper the vein yields are higher in concentrates because of thermal intrusions. What a learning experience!
When Jason was shaking the bottle to get the gold out of the bottle, I caught myself shaking my tablet. I would like to thank both you Dan and Jason for making this video together ❤
Dan stumbled across this video very interesting and informative. I have to say I really like you're attitude! " Yes the gold the did not pay for the gas , time, and the process, but we get to hang out with a friend and learn" ( paraphrasing ) You just earned a new subscriber!
Greetings from the BIG SKY. Nice to see both a Canukian and gringos mining together. I haven't seen a lick of 'work' out of the Canukian yet. They keep their word well.
Loved all of the processing equipment used in this video; very nice! Appreciate you going through the whole process in one video so we could see bucket to beads.
Ive never been impressed with all these exalted finds. I sit around, doing my thing, i assess what spare cash i can use to increase my gold weight, then the pure finished product finds its way through my letter box. Very little energy is required, no noise, and no biting insects.
Love your guy's flow. I remember when you were teaching the kids about prospecting on your channel. It's great that you still give us the time to show us how to get that gold! Be safe out there brothers. Keep on keepin on friends.
I enjoyed watching you two working together I have learned so much thank you. Question if you Don't mind ? First I'm 67 years old and retired. I'm visiting my wife's people here in Washington State. I will be here until winter and it get cold. I'm wanting to go panning for gold here in the Washington State Area. I have gotten a permit to check out in all state parks in Washington. Can you advise me on what panning dishes or filters that I would need ? I have been watching your video's for sometime now. I will be in this area for 3 months or so. Just don't want to spend 3 months and find nothing. Its like a little beats nothing lol. I will be checking out Jason's video's as well thanks for letting me enjoy your video's . Jeff Steele
Enjoyed your comment about crossing the border. An old military friend worked the border between WA and BC after retiring from the military. Might very well have been one the points you use.
I saw the sly grin Jason when you asked Dan if he wanted to try out his panning skills. Your like two world class prospectors. yes I loved the grin. ❤❤❤
29:36 these are amazing patterns. Idk if you've ever seen a close up picture of the sun, but these look identical (except the size on the sun is more like the size of France). They are convection cells when you have a really specific set of circumstances with a hot liquid.
"I hope to earn your subscription today" You got mine. Great line as so many people on RUclips demand your subs. I've been subbing for about a year now and this is Great Fun content!
I love you videos i use to look for gold i cant do any more right now but im hoping to again i had a stroke in march it will take some time and hard work, but until then i watch your videos
Watching this I'm having flashback to my mineral processing classes. I'm really curious if you have any chemical analysis on the sulfide mineralogy? Any SEM/EDX work? Matte!! Careful with the matte slag, sometimes you might try a little lime to get a little more matte-slag miscibility. your crucible composition could affect your acid-basic balance in the slag.
I have watched many of your videos and decided to subscribe. I need to get out there! My daughter loves hunting for precious stones, metals and fossils. All stones are special to her even the most ordinary.
I just looked at Jason's Channel and he was crushing up Jade and other big rocks and so, I came over to this one to see if we could get some gold out of the rocks. My guess is you're going to have to go deeper into the ground to get the type of gold that came out back in the 1800s.
Great to see you working together, makes for an extra special vlog. Good luck on your search for a more promising mine. Happy hunting and all the best to you both.
Never had so much fun watching someone else work. It’s funny listening to the explanation of why there wasn’t more than 1/4 gram out of the 330 lbs. kinda like listening to a football player explain why they lost a game.
We owned an old mill property in Pa and they used to have a giant smelt going in the late 1800s and what they used to do as just keep throwing the rock into the smelt and this Babbitt material would overflow and in the end they would have all the gold and precious metals in the bottom of the smelt is what the old lady told us when I was just a kid … the more I watch the less I believe that lol but we would find all this Babbitt material that looked just like placer nuggets but they were mostly led and aluminum etc . The rock has 19% gold when my old man sent it out to be tested .
I really love to see your video's, when i was a kid i had a book with minerals and i also liked walking in the mountains with my parents on vacation, and looking for shiny stones in rivers. Now I'm just in some projects that have gold mines or trade in gold. I hope to have some gold one day with me to😂 keep up the good work💪
EXCELLENT: Always a joy watching your videos. Always entertaining and fun. Keep up the great footage and the Yum, yum yum Gold 😋 😊. Regards South Africa 🇿🇦.
Awesome that you have a friend like Jason, willing to help educate and inform!

I love working with Jason
Yeah I agree it’s super fun to watch you two work. You both complement each other’s skills really well, and the positive vibe is infectious.
Is Jason of Native American descent? He looks it!!

I’ve been binge watching your episodes for the last few days. I’ve never prospected or panned for gold but I’m already planning my first trip. Thanks for all the awesome, informative videos Dan!
I came to BC to do some panning. Water levels to high right now unfortunately. Coming back mid July!
Dan can be addicting
Jason too, didn't mean to not mention him
Good luck....we started 11 month s ago 24:50
Hello to those who care, and have a good day! 👋❤️
Thanks 😊 and I hope you have a good day too dude 💜🤘

Hey Dan & Jason,
Any day with Dan, Jason and Gold is a great day !
I really enjoy being able to tag along via these videos.
I am fascinated with the heavy equipment as well as the process of smelting.
Thanks guys
Stay Safe, Be Well
Enjoy Life
I love how you put the date when you filmed in the video. It's a nice touch that nobody seems to do.
Some of the best collabing on the net! You 2 are so entertaining!!
Thanks
The work involved that’s what makes gold precious
18:36 That vacuum in the back is another good candidate for googly eyes.
Thanks to the both of you. It is good to know that not all mines are productive, all ore taken is unique to each specimen with sulfides. Usually, the deeper the vein yields are higher in concentrates because of thermal intrusions. What a learning experience!
I'm loving the slow mo portions of the video and I'd love to see more. It's so cool seeing how things happen in that kind of detail!
When Jason was shaking the bottle to get the gold out of the bottle, I caught myself shaking my tablet. I would like to thank both you Dan and Jason for making this video together ❤
I truly enjoy seeing our 2 countries working together to make gold.
stop nationalism pls
Your country did nothing, it's 2 private people
Always enjoy seeing you two colab.
Thanks, always fun to work with Jason

Whenever I see a Dan Hurd video it always leaves me feeling happy!
Dan is the Bob Ross of gold farming.
I found yours's and Jason's videos very interesting and a joy to watch. Thanks for bringing us along on your action-packed adventures.
Yours's 😂
Let's go people, ANOTHER banger with Dan "THE MAN" Hurd and "the machine" Jason
Yes...gold🎉. Nice clip😊
Arne. Norway
Gotta love this Dan Jason duo! Hope more content like this in the furute!
What an awesome video. Just guys having fun in a smelting laboratory. Living the dream for the rest of us.
Always look forward to my Sunday Dan Hurd video, and they are even better with Jason involved.
Thanks guys. Also thanks for being real about finding hard rock hold. We wander the NW Arizona desert mountains sampling and smelting
Legends meet again! Thank you for sharing, this was awesome!
Always love watching your videos Dan.
Awesome team, great team work I appreciate you both. Thanks.
You are the only two RUclipsrs that I would love to have a few beers with. Cheers Mate!
My favorite vids are always with Jason! Love the smelting
Thanks for the future video, Dan! Always a wonderful addition to my day! :)
Loved all of the processing equipment used in this video; very nice! Appreciate you going through the whole process in one video so we could see bucket to beads.

I sit around, doing my thing, i assess what spare cash i can use to increase my gold weight, then the pure finished product finds its way through my letter box.
Very little energy is required, no noise, and no biting insects.
My sentiments entirely, once my pure metals hit the door mat, they join the rest of them.
And that's it..... until the next time.
Love your guy's flow. I remember when you were teaching the kids about prospecting on your channel. It's great that you still give us the time to show us how to get that gold! Be safe out there brothers. Keep on keepin on friends.

Two smart guys having fun! And I learned a lot, which is also fun!
The gold hog was awesome. I thought I'm getting started myself and love your videos I'm learning a lot from . You're awesome to buddy.
I have no idea why I'm here. But I'm watching this entire video...
~$15 worth in that bead. . . . . . a lot less than minimum wage - the miner's curse hahaha. Love the videos man. Keep em coming.
I bet they spent on gas and electricity more than that gold worth …🤦♂️
I saw Dan bring the side of the mine down on Jason in that video! 🤣🤣
But carefully!
Very true Dan! 😁
Great too see you two hanging out. Really enjoying seeing your contents on utube
You two are a good team.
The Copper Inquarter has some good gold refining videos as well, and you can win silver and gold bullion!
Woohoo, been waiting to see the results. Thanks, Dan!
Been anxiously waiting for this video !!!!!! ❤
He it is!
Enjoyed your comment about crossing the border. An old military friend worked the border between WA and BC after retiring from the military. Might very well have been one the points you use.
Glad you didn't have any miner problems
I can't help but notice how much jason sounds like harland Williams😂 must be a Canadian thing! Love the videos.
Jason is American , In Washington State , Dan bring the Ore across the Border for Jason to smelt
What a great team you guys are. Love watching you guys. Thank You. :)
The real gold was the friends we made along the way.
That was a lot of fun. I thoroughly enjoyed both videos on this!
I saw the sly grin Jason when you asked Dan if he wanted to try out his panning skills. Your like two world class prospectors. yes I loved the grin. ❤❤❤
Lets go Dan im super glad to see you're making it doing what you love i remember when you only had 3.2k subs! KEEP IT UP DAN!
Dan next time you visist you need to stick some googly eyes on the bolts inside the crusher..... because fun!
29:36 these are amazing patterns. Idk if you've ever seen a close up picture of the sun, but these look identical (except the size on the sun is more like the size of France). They are convection cells when you have a really specific set of circumstances with a hot liquid.
Awesome collaborations.
So much to learn.....and that ore looked so very promising 🤔. Thanks for sharing the great videos.
Great collaboration guys!! Keep them coming...the best of the best!
Thanks

Greetings from the BIG SKY of Montana. Got to see this again.
Really enjoy your videos! Especially when you do combos with Jason and Poly!
i like the way dan draws you in

This is such fascinating stuff. I love Jason's channel!
You two and the quality time you guys spend worth the gold you looking for!
This is just a great way to spend a day I wish I was their
Great video you guys and I agree it's all about having a good time, learning and expanding!
Hell yeah,nice intro.
I think Dan Hurd and Jason are real best friend's
You are real rocking 😊
Now that was hella cool bob! And you filmed it on my birthday!!!
I happened upon this 1 year and 1 week later. Nice!
The Jaw Crusher Reminds Me of a Wolf Spider!🕷️🕸️😊☺️😆✨💖
I have watched many of your videos and decided to subscribe. I need to get out there! My daughter loves hunting for precious stones, metals and fossils. All stones are special to her even the most ordinary.
I'm saving for land now, I love the old ways, time to go back.
Really a great video Dan!! Keep up the awesome work! Thank you for doing what you do sir!
Thank you for saying so!
iI love your Videos with Jason! It`s always a lot of fun and very informative!
Greatings from the land with poor gold resources...germany 😔

ABSOLUTELY FASCINATING!!
Dan gets it out the mud! Amazing!
Never had so much fun watching someone else work. It’s funny listening to the explanation of why there wasn’t more than 1/4 gram out of the 330 lbs. kinda like listening to a football player explain why they lost a game.
Dan, This was a fantastic educational video!!!
Keep up the good work and I hope you find a great mine.
There is so much one can learn from you and Jason! Thanks for sharing guys

This guy has such a huge personality,
U earned my sub brother
Two of the best, together.
this video is great i find it pretty funny that dan is saying "nom nom" to the sound of the rock crusher like a mad man its funny
Having fun and learning. Enough said.
I really love to see your video's, when i was a kid i had a book with minerals and i also liked walking in the mountains with my parents on vacation, and looking for shiny stones in rivers. Now I'm just in some projects that have gold mines or trade in gold. I hope to have some gold one day with me to😂 keep up the good work💪
