Alaska Gold: Crevicing, Panning and High Banking By The River
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 24 авг 2024
- Join me for another night of crevicing for gold by the Casadepaga river near Nome Alaska. I demonstrate several important and rewarding gold prospecting techniques including crevicing, high banking and panning out one small bucket of gold containing clay that was stuck to the clay on rocks that I excavated. I also work about five buckets of raw material collected by crevicing through a riverside high banker and then pan it down as well. Both methods were very productive. The mosquitoes were horrendous.

My grandfather was a gold panner I went with him on several occasions during Summer vacations. The day that I remember the most was the day I saw all these little red pebbles in the sand , I asked him what they were he said "they'er just garnets they're not worth anything" , so I didn't collect them I wish I would have , now that I know what garnets are and more so , I would have had something from that particular day with him , the day I remember the most.Thank You for bringing back that memory for me today , I hope you get the amount of gold that you want on this adventure , God bless you and keep you safe Virginian.
Crevicing is the way to go. When I lived in Oregon, that's the only kind of prospecting I would do. It's a good feeling to find some color in places no one else ever bothered to check.
There's something very ritualistic and ancient about the panning method, like kneading dough, carving wood, or milling grains. Thanks for taking us along!
Chigger, if you hold the pan with your left hand with the hole facing you and tap the front of the pan with your right hand the tapping will walk the gold to the front of the pan.
Thanks for showing us all that gold panning is not that easy. You work very hard for the rewards you receive and that easily explains why there is such a high price attached to gold. Loved your video and thanks a million.............hopefully in GOLD.
I learned to pan in Australia. I agree with you; nothing more relaxing than listening to the birds and gently running water and smelling the fresh air whilst sitting on the creek bank panning for gold :)
I found myself swatting at your mosquitoes ! Thanks for the video. Cool stuff.
Gold fever!!! That sky is magnificent! The colors! It was fun to see the gold appear. I can see how you can get hooked on panning. Learned s lot. And thanks for putting up with those damned huge mosquitoes. I never saw you itch!
Dang, I don't think that I've seen bugs like that before. Looked like black flies, deer flies, tons of mosquitoes and heck knows what else. Thanks for your efforts!
THANK YOU,,,for showing more then just metal detecting...You give a small lesson and I love it.I have learned so much watching you ..Dont get me wrong I LOVE METAL DETECTING but you give a little more and its the way you do it..You are a great teacher.Please dont stop brother...
I got gold fever. AGAIN. Love this kind of treshure hunting. I remember my first gold I found in my gold pan, I am very happy no one was near with a video camera, because I did the most crazy, Energetic. dance ,whopping and hollering I FOUND GOLD!!!
Very interesting Mr Beau as usual you make me feel like I'm there with you!
Chiggs is living the dream ! 😎

chig is looking unwell....I diagnose GOLD FEVER!
You are such a trip Beau. Enjoying it all. Thanks!

Exciting to watch. Enjoy watching you.
Absolutely fascinating! Excellent video Mr Chigger.
Chigg you were SO tired by the end, now I know what Drunk Chigg sounds like! 😂 Great vid and GREAT gold! 👍

Auqachigger got the gold fever ,,looks like your getting Moar gold ,looks like a lot of fun
Wow what fun! Nice job!
Looks as if aquachigger has got that fever Gold Fever
Just love AC's videos.
Chig ~ i mostly fish but still like your videos, but who doesn't like gold! My friend lives in Alaska and with enough DEET to turn my skin leathery i needed a headnet so i wouldn't breath them and to keep them out of my eyes and ears. Your a trooper as they were swarming you... find lots more shiney...AJ
Gold panning is so much fun and found it very peaceful. Love the video !
Very interesting video Beau. Thanks
Alaskan mosquitos are the worst... I went camping on a small lake in the middle of nowhere in the mountains of AK and it was INSANE. Just as many as chigg had if not more. Someone before us was kind enough to leave a couple mosquito masks behind that we didn't find until our 2nd day.. and oh man was that ever a godsend.
Enjoyable and entertaining how-to-do-it demo. There is no gold where I'm at but your technique and reasoning may be useful in other projects. Thanks for this and your other interesting videos.
Was anyone else swatting at the on screen mosquitoes too? Or was it just me? Great video.
You got a case of the gold fever! I like how that half hr turned into 1.5hrs
Thanks for the videos.
That looks like so much fun, regardless of how much you actually find.
Oh yeah I enjoyed it wish there was a place in TN I could do that.
Come home Chig...you are starting to come down with gold fever!!!
Sheesh, Beau IS the virus that causes gold fever. LOL
That looks so much fun, but lord! The midges/mozzies/flies - you need one of those hats the Aussie prospectors have with all the hanging corks... much more fun than Deet. Love watching your videos, you are the thinking woman's MacGyvercrumpet - only more rugged(!). Does your wife ever go on adventures with you? Or are your adventures the reason you are still married? Thanks for all your care & enthusiasm, it is appreciated.
Wow, well done, keep prospecting and good luck!
Enjoy all your videos. Crazy how you had a storm of mosquitoes around you 😕
dang the gold looks so cool in the pan

looks like you had a blast! too bad about the bugs lol
LOVE YOUR VIDS
Great Video!! I could do without the Alaskan air force buzzing around though...LOL
two places that absolutely amaze me on the voracity of carnivorous insects, Alaska/ Canada area midges and mosquitoes, and swampy southern areas with their head bugs(aka deer flies, horse flies) and mosquitoes. both areas I think one could literally die from running out of bug repellent.
