    Gold IS AMAZING! Your pieces here are beautiful!! And I have heard time and time again you can find gold anywhere in New Mexico. You are proving this to be true! The arroyo on the Greyback claim in Sierra County NM has A LOT of gold! Love seeing it under the microscope..makes you want to name each individual piece! 😆

      My friend, Shelley, says I fall in love with them they're so beautiful. We're going to join the NM Gold Prospectors Association. They have a claim down in Sierra County that we'll be able to work.

    I scooped up one juice bottle's worth of soil from an arroyo in Albuquerque as I passed through last year. Got it home and found one speck. So I believe you're right.

      I'm going to keep scooping a couple of shovels-full from every arroyo I come across. It's like a treasure hunt.

    Toby, they mentioned you as a treasure hunter today on discord. Miss your show and input tremendously. Glad you started this show too though, really good subject material. Thank you

      Thank you, Brian. That all seems like a lifetime ago. You can tell them I'm still treasure hunting - but, I'm finding it one little piece of gold at a time.

    I am old school with using a 4 foot Keen hand sluice and panning out the concentrates with a normal gold pan, then use the special 4 inch gold pan with a small recessed lip on the bottom of the pan for separating fine gold from the black sands. When our RUclips channels is put together we have already filmed how to pan concentrates with a special way of panning gold called "whip panning, for separating fine gold from black sands without the use of mercury, which is a family passed down procedure. It was meant for old time placer mining where funds for purchasing mercury took food out of their mouths. Mexican Bend and other Southern Utah placers where placer mined by my ancestors from the 1860's to the 1950's where possession of gold was limited to five ounces, with cashing in the gold before reaching five ounces before stating all over on collecting the next five ounce of gold to cash in. Possessing any more than five ounces of gold required a special Federal Gold License, such as primary and secondary production of mined gold and gold exchange depositories that exchanged gold for cash. Personally, I believe in 1933 when the US went of the gold standard for monetary backing of our printed money, is when the gold reserves at Fort Knox began to be drained down for the formation of our secretive, unchecked, US Black Ops formation for controlling and warring on the world. I know that Fort Knox has most of the gold exchanged on the world markets for monetary means of the US Black Ops dirty deeds.

    The atoms of gold, not the small gold flakes, was blown out of four billion year old stars in the form of clouds that started to form solid matter. The Earth formed with collecting gold atoms, then through vulcanizing steams and plate tectonics the atoms of gold combined together to produce the gold flakes in this video, which could be as young as 10,000 years to 300 million years or more old.

      No. I don't have the equipment. Garage prospecting is as fast as I want to go.

      @@rcsurffishing I can relate. I used to thoroughly enjoy prospecting in the local creeks, but I haven’t been in 4 years. I just purchased a Garrett ATX Pulse Induction metal detector, but haven’t been able to use it yet. Perhaps I could visit sometime and we could try it out.

      @@coryondreako8227 because gold drops out in certain places and it concentrates in certain places. That’s where you want to look. Low pressure zones.
