    Nice work. That's a good section of the river. You would increase some fine gold recovery if you were to wet classify your material but it does make the buckets heavier lol thanks for sharing and heavy pans 😎

    Get some magic fingers from Keene. Also bring a hand brush to get all materials off of the bedrock. Also a heavy duty crevice scraper for narrow cracks. I've found big nuggets deep in those cracks where my metal detector doesn't get any signals but then I tear the crack way open and a foot deeper than you thought it went and there the gold has dropped down and now rests where nobody would have found it without tearing up that bedrock.

    You found some pretty nice color but I have to break the news to you: leaving all that skim dirt laying on the bed rock unswept means you just left a big payday for the next guy that comes along... And the worst part is that YOU did all his work for him!! (Ya gotta sweep the bedrock or you're just fooling yourself)!

    Cool spot! I started using a battery powered vacuum cleaner ( 2 gallon Dewalt) now I am curious what would of been found had I vacuumed that up after you were done!

    I can’t help but notice classifying wet do ya reckon you leave a lot of good on the rocks? I found a dry canyon here in Utah which at the moment of the year found some bigger gold for the area I’ve been told. It’s wet now with snow. Would I be wasting my time moving snow and taking all the dirt out to run

    I’ve cleaned bedrock across river from that spot and have done reallllyyyyyy good. Also found a 1.4 gram nuggy with my detector there.

    Hard to tell from the video. Those grey pieces you called led might be mercury covered gold. Just might be led though hard to tell from what I could see. Only saying it so you don't throw out possible gold.

    • @tommyboutdeaf1453
      @tommyboutdeaf1453 2 дня назад

      I watched a few times. Definitely not lead. It's shaped similarly to the gold so I'd agree it's gold with mercury on it.

    Once again! Maybe you should try making cooking videos.. because you suck at making Gold videos.
