Gold Prospecting With A Suction Dredge! (Plus Minelab Equinox 800 Gold Picker)

- Join us on this adventure while we re-visit our productive creek from a previous video. We start off metal detecting with my minelab equinox 800 for placer gold. Most of our time is spent dredging for gold in a seasonal creek. The trip comes to an end with a very productive gold panning session. We spent the extended weekend prospecting for gold and had a blast!
Last 2 trips on this creek. 2 Part series with chunkier gold and a couple nuggets!

Fantastic Prospecting and Excellent job GETTIN THAT GOLD 💪👍
Thank you, I appreciate it!
My favorite part of the video is the underwater filming. But it was all fun to watch. Thanks.
My favorite part is the underwater as well. Can't wait to do it some more. Thank you for watching, I appreciate it!
Awesome weekend! Thanks for taking us along.
My pleasure, thanks for watching!
Great video.
Thanks for watching, I'm glad you liked it!
Go hammer the heck outta that spot brother. Finding good gold there! Also never seen the spy glass setup before! Awesome video. Ya earned a new sub!
Thanks for the sub! I'm definitely going back. I have a week long dredging trip in the Rockies first.
Fantastic video and great gold! We'll be headed out there next week.
Thank you, I appreciate! Good luck out there!
That is an interesting way of using the dredge and a high pressure hose I guess you would call it moving stuff into the stationary dredge, smart move. Nice little haul there.
It's mostly to break up the stuff in small cracks. I normally move the nozzle around more if I have enough water.
Nice and chunky, the way I like it.✌️😎
Same! Lol I have spent so much time focusing on small flood gold. The last couple years have been more enjoyable with chunkier gold.
👍 Vdos !! Seems like your having fun runs in that area.. curious about doing the same.. I've been prospecting southern AZ for the last year and have done ok.. I have a fun recirculating dual sluice set-up and feel like changing up my scenery.. I would love to drop into southern Oregon for a few summers.. Being half Irish the hunt for AU comes natural and never gets old 😆 Stay Safe ehh.. I'll keep following.. 👍 Willau2c
I would love to prospect in Arizona. I would be all over the place metal detecting. Haha yeah I already look like a leprechaun. I naturally like gold.
Nice
Thank you
Awesome work! Beautiful chunkie Gold
I appreciate and thanks for watching!
Very nice bro thanks for bringing us along
Thanks for watching again. Not my best video, lots going on in life right now.
I thought it was a great video it's getting me pumped dredging season for me starts in 2 and a 1/2 weeks here in Idaho
Awesome, I was headed to the Rockies next week. Postponed now until mid July.
Nice gold
Thank you!
Nice weekend bro...🌟⛏️
Thanks for watching, I appreciate it!
@@prospectingforadventure Np brother! Would so luv to get out that way! 😍 we find powder out here in the east lol
Have you tried gemstones? Depending where you're at. It's a 6 hour drive for me to find good gold.
@@prospectingforadventure No i have not... heard there were diamonds round here, do keep my eyes peeled for them and Garnet Valley is really close to me in Pa, heard there are big colorful garnets all throughout those creeks! I should give it a try since there isnt too much gold to be found here where im at!
@@prospectingforadventure 10 hrs drive to find my first gold in NC
Awesome work man, i love the chunky gold there
Absolutely! It's depressing it's a 6 hour drive. Lol
Nice rough gols
Thank you!
That's some chunky stuff! I'd say you can't be too far from the source. I live in Rainier but will be heading down that way next month for my B-day. Hope to have similar luck! 😁Thanks for the videos! I was lucky "like👍" number 100 BTW 😂
Thanks for watching, I appreciate it! I'm sure one of the sources are right there on the claim. I've found some gold that looked like it fell right out of the host rock. I'm taking a minelab gpx 6000 up there on my next trip. Hoping to find some gold hiking around.
That was a fun trip! Great video man!
Thanks man, I feel like I rushed it again. Oh well, seems to be doing OK.
Add spring steel wire
Just enough to scrape
Move 3 times as fast
Yeah I agree normally I scrape before I start cleaning. I mostly did it this way to keep the clear visibility while I filmed it.
Wow great video! What a place to play and really nice gold to boot! The long skinny one at the top of the "pile" still has quality character....what hillside is it shedding from? I like your bedrock buster👍. Good for you on trusting your gut and letting it lead you to gold....a 🍻 to your brain also!
Thank you! I think the source is on both sides through there and up in the head water too. Some gold you probably saw in the previous video is super tumbled. Then there's gold that looks like it just dropped out of the source. I will probably have a Minelab GPX 6000 next time I go up. I'll spend more time metal detecting the draws and hillsides. Pretty soon there won't be enough water to easily dredge.
@@prospectingforadventure , southern Oregon prospector myself. I find gold that has been rolled and some that looks like it came straight out of the vein as well. Isn’t that weird 🤔. I need to detect the hillsides as well. It would be insane to find a vein one day.
Huge River Jade Boulders
Pretty sure it's green stone or serpentine. A lot of the bedrock is that way and different grades of it.
@@prospectingforadventure hope you are doing well.. We should do an XRF scan on those green boulders. If it's Jade, with good clarity, super super valuable to Chinese who like large boulders of Jade
muy buen oro amigo saludos desde colombia
Thank for watching, I appreciate it!
Hi I’d love to join sometime when I visit USA. I’m a cool person too 😀
Say does the river Chang’s a lot. Like would you recognise you’ve been dredging there before in two years time?
This creek you need to reclaim your spot after you're finished with it. The creek doesn't get high enough to reset the creek bed every season. I also remove any diversions that I make.
Where can I get that feeder header box you have on your highbanker?
It's the black thing with keene sticker on thw side.
The crash boxes we have on our dredges came attached to the sluice box. I believe Keene Engineering sells them separate as well as connected. The other good place would be to keep an eye on gold groups for people selling their gear.
Right on man, that’s a good trip I would say 👌👊. How many days were you dredging ?
Yeah it was a fun trip. 2 days dredging.

Có bán bộ máy này k..tôi thích mua
Not bad
Come to türkiye bro Daily min 10 gr gold
I wish! Definitely difficult to find good gold around here. I went to Turkey back in 2009. Wish I could have prospected. Lol
@@prospectingforadventure Many regions in Turkey are untouched and there are many minerals waiting to be mined.
Hard to imagine with the history there! Different past and civilization than here.
This job SUCKS! WAIT NO.. IT IS AWESOME... BUT IT SUCKS
Yes both.
