I met a couple last year that told me they netted 10 1/2 oz in one day on the beach in Nome. It was all in amalgam form but they were able to safely cook off the mercury.They knew or at least met Alex when they were there.
I’m with you on using the miners moss and grates. Over the course of the 3 truckloads, if there is even 1 or 2g of pickers getting away, that’s not good!
I love that idea of your spud bar. I think maybe tomorrow I'll grab a skid loader tooth off-the-shelf and see about making one for the ice In the creeks down here if it ever gets cold enough.
I've never done the beach but I have 4 years dealing with creeks. My goal is to hit the lake superior beach to get the experience in preparation for Nome. Living in Green Bay it's only 4hrs to the lake. Can I run a 24in by 4ft sluice in Michigan?
Hey Bryan, Im confused about something. When you went down onto West Beach it said no camping, no storage right? And then there's Alex and others, camping and storing stuff? O.o That is super confusing.
Another great video Bryan! I knew he was gonna get you with that extra moss and metal over the carpet. Alex told me the same thing, No, only carpet. LOL But I guess he's the expert so next season I'm coming back better prepared. And with more carpet! (Rebel Miner)
Hay guys Paulie here from New Zealand love the videos We have beach gold here to so me and a friend are taking what we see in your video and put it to work hopefully it works cheers keep them videos coming love you guys
Great video guys 👍, thats some amount of gold hiding in that black sand! Well worth the effort to extract it from the beach's. Look forward to your next video. Cheers
Awesome video. Alex is a Legend. "No more teaching" Hahaha he knows his beach. Very nice haul for beach banking. Alex is the mine boss of Nome beach so just listen to what he says no B.S. and you'll catch some gold. Looks like fun and you earned some IPA and steaks.
Awesome video brother! I just seen a review on some of your paydirt. Looked like some fun dirt with a nice return. How often do you have paydirt for sale? Thank you for the awesome videos!
great video!!! over 20grams in two days is AWESOME!! We cant wait to come see all you guys in July 2022!! We are gonna spend a week there and just have fun drink some beers and to get meet all the locals! Hope to see you there! As always great video and much love from California!!!
That's totally killer! I would love to do that. Your set up was simple and very effective! So is that a public area? All I get to do is my free Fraser pan reservs, they are fun but you could live off what you get in Nome. Thanks for the show!⛏️⛏️⛏️🍀
Hey Bryan, you and Alex did real good out there !! He knows where to find the shiny ! 22.7 grams is awesome !! How much was in your truck loads ? About 1/2 yard per trip ? I definitely need to get up there !! Thanks for share your Nome adventure !
Very interesting video. 1gram is worth approximately 72.00. X 11 each 792.00 each. Not bad for 3 truck fills of black sand. 22 grams in total. Nice haul for a rainy day. However it’s very expensive to live in Nome.
With all due respect, you kinda put me in mind of Barney Rubble. Good videos. I hope ya keep em coming. Btw, I wonder how much gas is a gallon in Nome. I hear tell a case of water is $40.00. Zat sound right?
Great video! I have a question. I live in a area where I also do some beach mining and I am wondering what the size dimensions of your beach box is? The one I use is 12” X 6’ and the feed rate is very slow. Looking to improve on it
seems like the beaches are the same world wide,, the trick i found is test, test and test some more, not many beaches i have worked are safe to drive on,, ALEX sure is a hard worker and a damm smart one to boot,, loading the bed of the truck is alot easier then the 5gal. bucket at a time,, thank you guys for taking us along! that was great
Hey buddy! I'm just watching the new season of BSG it's only shown the 3rd episode yesterday for last winters mining. How did YOU & VERNA do this past season, winter 20/21? Your probably bound by contract though eh? I mean I'm still gonna watch. So happy mining there in Nome, BE SAFE!! btw; I think Zeke has to find more competent help to stay alive. Steve Rydell......, mmmph!
On the beach in Washington you dig a hole 3 to 4 feet deep and there's a solid 6 to 8 inch thick black sand pay layer that way better than anything of the top is it like that there in nome or is it better of the top
Don't let him take it apart run it the way you want to run it you have done a lot of prospecting and I'm pretty sure you got more experience than him do it the way you think you'll get more gold
In my opinion It's better to bring some fresh water to the paydirt and recirculate. That cold salt water creates to many bubbles to catch the majority of fine gold.
Here, a little bit late, an old surveyor from Old Germany speaks up. I got off the hamster wheel a good 24 years ago and originally wanted to look for gold here in the Philippines with a self-built catamaran, but unfortunately the laws here are BS. For the coming season I'm planning a longer stay on the beach in Nome and that's why I ask: how are Alex and Roger? Did they weather the storms? And if anyone is looking for a place to stay for the winter in the sunny south, away from the big cities, please let us know. We have space directly on the beach, unfortunately without gold in the shell limestone and heating in the house! All the best and good luck from the south, which is a little too warm, my grand papa was a miner and said "Glück auf" (Greetings from the miners and means good return from the mountain) to all the miners Jürgen, Grace and Paul (14)
Good video. 👍 all the best. Just have question. Might look stiupid... Why don't you use sea water on beach mining. Is it because beach gold is so tiny specs and salt water might make them float out of slucie?
How would a guy get to come and dive for people in nome? I would love to try my luck there if you know of anyone needing someone with experience dredging.
Im with you on using the miners moss. Your truck your gear your fuel, I would not have split the haul with Alex. 12 miles and hes not paying the fuel, better off on your own bud. Ive been to Nome on several occasions work related wish I could have mined some. Liking your videos bud.
I met a couple last year that told me they netted 10 1/2 oz in one day on the beach in Nome. It was all in amalgam form but they were able to safely cook off the mercury.They knew or at least met Alex when they were there.

Im pretty sure its 24in wide and 4 ft long.
My creek is in Luckenbach tx . I get 10% come dredge the creek. I have a 1/4 mile of gravel.
Sounds great, but Texas isn't really known to have gold
Watching you from HOT Maine. Pity someone cant ship you a mini dream matt.

Good luck this year Brian.

Go get em bryan. Your a true t.v personality from Nelly from northboro
Is the gold deposite mostly coming from the ocean or is it coming from the tundra,or a bit of both?
The mountains behind Nome
On the beach in Washington you dig a hole 3 to 4 feet deep and there's a solid 6 to 8 inch thick black sand pay layer that way better than anything of the top is it like that there in nome or is it better of the top
Gold is all over. It's just too hard to go deep with a shovel. Better to get the ez stuff in a short time.
Hey Bryan the green ribbed carpet,is that a backed carpet or non backed?
They were not backed.
Good find
Thanks for watching!
Hi watching JP s live,saw JP and brewer with your bag's are there any left 😁😁😁😁😁
Yes, send me a message on facebook, Bryan Wilder
Love your videos! Are there other places where you can mine on the beach in Nome? Do you need to find a claim owner and get permission?
Yes miles of beach to go to. Thanks for watching!
@@AmericanGoldProspectors is the beach free to (high bank) ?
Wow over 100 thousand views. Goooo bryan. Northboro finest gold hunter and white cliffs lasagna maker
Don't let him take it apart run it the way you want to run it you have done a lot of prospecting and I'm pretty sure you got more experience than him do it the way you think you'll get more gold
Maybe, but I didn't want to make an enemy, lol.
Walrus wow
I wish I could do this
Go for it!
🤔 Just wondering 🤔 why not move camp to the Gold area? That's a lot different than dredging the 40 mile,10g not 10oz.
Its hard to get water from the shallow ocean for the pump. The hose will suck sand from the bottom.
In my opinion It's better to bring some fresh water to the paydirt and recirculate. That cold salt water creates to many bubbles to catch the majority of fine gold.
Spent the 90s working Bethel, Nome, and Kotzebue. Case of Deet, couple cases of Pic coils and lots of coffee and I'm good to go.

It will suck sand if just tossed on the beach surf.
I want to come up and do some beach mining. If one was determined and worked hard could they make some good money?
No not really, gold is getting hard to find on the beach. Thanks for watching!
How would a guy get to come and dive for people in nome? I would love to try my luck there if you know of anyone needing someone with experience dredging.
