There is BIG GOLD just sitting in these bedrock cracks!

- Back to my famous gold claim "Pickerton". And of course we find the big gold it is known for. This time I bring my small high banker down and run some material from a few different spots I was hoping would have good gold. And one of those spot sure did!

at 20:10 the yellow color of the lead is most likely from an antimony/zinc lead alloy lead likes to oxidize white but antimony or zinc makes it yellow out overtime
Dan, you earned my subscription 10 seconds into the first video I ever saw of yours, just by using the word “earned”. I really respected you for that and have loved every video you’ve posted. Many thanks and all the best. ✌️🇬🇧
Same. I subscribed because he actually asked politely. Have not had any regrets tho!
Nice gold Dan. Did Tom tell you about the Persian dougnuts from Thunder Bay? I bought them another box for the trip home LOL. Reg and Tom ate 6 of them the night they stayed here on the way out to you, and they are not small LOL.
Reg gave me a container of the cons they got during their trip out there and it's FULL of fine gold. I've been using that material to teach my crews how to pan the tough stuff a few teaspoons at a time. We have a small vial with about 200+ little flakes and colours in it now with lots left to process.
This man’s energy is so infectious. Always makes me smile.
Gold fever ❤
I always appreciate my moments on sundays to watch this. Makes me dream of gold, nature, and prospecting some day.
The build ups as you film multiple days is really nice! It almost like new adventures. “The new day may be a golden one”
Thanks Dan and Reg....
hello! I am currently in middle school! hi Dan! Dana Hart was one of my favourite teachers I am so sad she had to leave our school!! I understand why. Keep up the good work!! ❤
👋🏼
this was fun!
shout out to special guest reg!
👍
Men at work: Don, Reg and Tom. What a wonderful journey. Good outdoors and finding them pickers.
Nice watching. Regards South Africa 🇿🇦.
A very good location to find gold, the gold nuggets are very beautiful, gold fever all day long, greetings from traditional Indonesian gold miners 🇮🇩🤝⛏️⚒️💪👋👏👍👌
Love it, thanks Reg, Dan.
Thank you for not disturbing moss en mass!! It's actually an incredibly important micro-ecosystem that supports the fundamental building blocks of life. Mossing on a large scale is actually really damaging to the environment. Thank you Dan❤
Moss fans rise up, all my homies love moss
When I prospect I tear moss up. Moss traps gold extremely well which is why miners did it
Some beautiful footage today....... and gold!!!
Love watching your video's it looks so great where you go looking for gold where you go for hours and hours having a great time looking great video Jim in the UK.
❤❤❤ ty Dan cheers from Squamish
3.30am here in New Zealand. Yay for insomnia.
I know this is going to be another , great video, from Dan
@ Reg labbe YO👊🏼 great to put a face with the name so jealous you got to prospect pickerton 🤩 congrats. Nice gold Dan and nice little high banker thanks for sharing see you on the next one 👍🏼👊🏼
Thanks to Reg for moderating! And thanks to you for giving us some environmental information as you go - I love seeing the combination of care for the amazing place that you are and fascination with the geography of it! It also makes me more inclined to buy gems and such from you, since this way I know it's been gathered in a minimally impactful way!
Also, I assume you had some sorta light but a headlamp for those late evenings would probably be helpful!
Thank you for looking after the environment as well!! Happy Prospecting!!
Good to see Pivkerton and the Frasier! I think that's how you spell it. Love to watch Dan!
Dan Hurd , happiest prospector on you tube. Thanks again Dan.
Another great video that caused my light bulb to turn on. Having seen many old workings and tunnels in my teens near by my Dad's mine (Cariboo) old picks, shovels, sluce boxes etc was seen. The main mode of transport in that time was a Jack Ass or a Pack Mule. It took a lot of time and strength to bring in what was needed to mine. No chain saws back then so timbers were cut by axe. The Old Miner who worked the claim before my Dad lived in town about 40 miles away from the claim. So it makes sense that once the equipment was at a working mine, why carry it back home every year when they were coming back the following year? So that could be why you may find old equipment?
Dan is the man! Thanks for always taking us along on your adventures :) your passionate and thoughdul apirit is infectious!!
saludos desde venezuela, directamente del pueblo minero de el callao, estado bolivar, sigo todo tus videos, son increibles
Hey Dan, nice to see you again. Lovely scenery as well.
Dan i always enjoy you vedios. You akways make is fun watching you even when you do not get a picker. I always like it when you find gold with that whoowho you do.
WOW love pickerton vids. Also nice to see Reg Lab ..lol
I would love to come out to one of your claims. I bought a pan and I've tried in Wisconsin. Not the greatest day. There is some gold but it's fine and very scarce. At the same time we workied the outer edge. Not the inner. But watching you has made me smarter. I hope we can go out together. Even if it's on the free river. Thanks Dan for all your insight. I find all of this so interesting. I love your videos. I am thinking of doing some paint videos. I do cars. I wetsand and buff scratches, most places won't do it. Because the don't want to be liable if they burn the clear. I've been doing it for around 25 years so, I have a unique skill.
These videos are so comforting to watch, makes me happy and itches my gold fever!
I truly appreciated the
slow-mo very much. I thought it was a great new effect. I liked it.❤
Just love watching you Dan
Good fever must be real. The fact that you can stare at it and just be awed even if it’s 1.34g definitely legitimizes the term “gold fever” in my book. I’ve never prospected or chased gold but if I did. I’m sure I’d catch gold fever too. They say it’s impossible not too!
Great job getting that Au fam. Keep on having fun and living the dream. Gold Squad Out 🤠
Man i love Pickerton videos!
The hike you described makes me think the boar box would work well here if you had it ready to set up.
We don't come for the camera work, it's good just to share your joy.
I always enjoy your content, so amazing and I love learning more about Geology! 🙌
Great job, guys.
20 minute steep hike? That's what children are for!
The wild flowers add that certain, je ne sais quoi to the shot. I love it 😻
I would love to see you and Jeff Williams do 2 videos together. One where he comes up to do gold hunting in your area. I would like to see the other video where you do gold hunting in his area.
Pickerton looks like a great place for a goldrush-nugget-bucket, given the terrain and the fact in past videos you've mentioned that it's a bit of a hike to get down there, lugging a highbanker and a gas pump seems like a pain....might be worth looking into a nugget bucket
The slow mo was cool.
I remember that rusty lead from the illegal sluice that you found. That looks very similar.
Hi Reg! It's nice to finally have a face to go with the name on Sunday mornings! Thanks for another great video Dan
It would be cool if you could talk about the geology of the rocks where you were. I've not seen what looks like the flat vertical rocks before. And the rocks look kinda blue?
It is just a vertical shale, I talked about it LOTS in another video from this site.
Wow that first clean out pan! That looks so nice.
Wonderful friend, excellent adventure, your gold is beautiful 🎉🎉🎉
DAN, YOU SHOULD… ignore the peanut gallery and keep doing your own thing; it’s brought you this far!
Thanks for the great content. Stay safe & keep it up.
Exactly!
Greetings from the BIG SKY. Pickerton rocks. Lots of gold, no 'pickers' in that pan.
nice gold thank you for sharing the adventure and information 😅.
Ever thought about getting a few folks together someplace where you can harvest some serious gold to help to pay for rebuilding your little camp that burned down ???? Bout 4 or 5 volunteers on a little weekend trip might net you some descent gold to go a long way in doing just that...Thanks for the adventure, stay safe, be well...
Good morning from Southeast South Dakota
I wonder if during curtain parts of the year and water level if a jet boat wouldn't be a good option to carry supplies to the site. I noticed some areas where the boat could be beached and tied off. Just a thought!
Nice gold sir thank you for sharing this six stars
One day I hope to pan for gold. That would be on my bucket list. It's fun watching
Have you ever seen the videos of the back country hiking tour companies that use goats to pack gear? It is amazing how ordinary farm goats can scurry over rocks and logs while wearing saddle bags. If you ever find a claim and think, "That claim looks interesting, but there is no way I could pack equipment in there" you might consider borrowing some goats.
@DanHurd Don't shame yourself ❤ you are HUMAN. No one often notices anything. Just like they tell performers, play it off ❤
You are amazing
Always enjoy your videos amigo
Looking good Dan looks like your feeling well and gold looks good be safe
Bears are scary but it's the big kitties that scare me 😉
Dan,
Get yourself a small digital angle gauge (used for woodworking) to help get your sluice angle dead on.
Just a thought.
Wow, you filmed this on my birthday, August 12th and not telling you the year,Lol!!
Best wishes and kindest regards!!
Another great vid Dan as always and regs keep up the great work man and don't worry buddy, theirs a huge nugget at pickertin waiting for you I'm confident
Told my sister about your channel and she fell in love . Both of us are rock crazy and retired and would love to go hounding with you some time . Thanks !
I would absolutely love to come pan Pickerton! Don't even want to keep anything, just want to get the experience!
Nice work of gold and nice video
Ok you gold picker love it. Have a task for you when you get bored ! Gather a Black Light (think posters...) and a Sterile lamp (barbers use them) [ electric supply companies] and the Barbars is danger to eyes !!! It is short wave UV and Black light is Long Wave. Job is Luminescence of Minerals - I have a Geological Survey Bulletin 1052-C 1958 (US Printing office) 157 pages. But back to work - Look at your site at night and see if gold bearing glows ! Might be green or red but might stand out. Might be the host rock that indicates that has gold or silver in rocks... Have my copy and lamps for over 50 years ! Long time rocker. Martin
Good job Dan. Always enjoy your channel and watching your luck brings picking.
Thanks for these videos, I also live in BC! Always been interested in rock hunting
Could you run a metal detector over your tillings to double check the pickers weren't blowing out?
Good luck my brother
Dan Dan Dan Dan!!!!!!!!
I felt that a little tweaking on the highbanker would have given you a lot more gold.
Why not pan some of the material that went off the end of the sluice? That might be where the pickers are.
Top found gold 🇮🇩⚒️⛏️💎👍👍
What about flushing the moss and collecting what comes out?
😎👍
Nippics r fun to find just a pain because there picky lol
You should try to get a pan from the tailings to see if it was the spot or the box
Good pickens
Dan, next time it’s that dark, just bump up the exposure on your camera and tape it to your face. Boom 💥Nightvision
You're doing some amazing work out there.
Headlamp. Headlamp. Headlamp.
Awesome video Dan! I really want to go to Pickerton soon ❤❤❤ but we have some deadfish gold to get! Watch for us soon everyone as we embark on a gold journey into no Pans land
Dan j'adore ton travail qui est vraiment formidable je te regarde depuis plusieurs années et je me régal toujours. Oui merci !!!😊
Here we go!
Wow.... super
Dan! You should have done this, that and the other thing!!!!
just to ask have you ever thought about replacing the gas powdered generator for a solar powered generator ? or is it not feasible
Why aren’t the mats deeper valley s?
Wouldn’t that mean more gold with less losses?
Keep going
I guess if you check the high banker after every tank of gas you will have an idea if it's worth the gas money or not. Love the content as always! Much love and goo luck to you all❤❤
My guess was 7 pickers. Wow!
Dan?, can u give me any information as to where to purchase an Ocean picture stone necklace please? Its for my wife. ❤
Check his website that's where I got my wife picture stone She was awestruck
Wishes of Fruitful harvests
I LOVE GOLD!!!!!
😂🧨💥idea: get 10 highbankers at Pickerton! 2/3 of gold goes to rebuild the camp!
