Lol ❤ People have been kiln for less, you know. Mine your own bismuth. You’re crushing Jason’s style. I’ll give you a cupel of minutes to remove your comment. Someone farted, Jason smelted it. 😂
Of quartz but it took a long time to iron out his work schedule. Luckily he doesn't seem too vein and will always telluride away when he sees an ore able situation. Sorry if I wedged into the conversation, I'll just siderite over here and chisel out my thoughts.
Jason, it’s always a pleasure watching your videos. I appreciate the content and very much enjoy your collaborations with other prospectors such as Dan Hurd and Brent Underwood. Thank you 😊.
I love all of your videos . I love the fact you are pretty much always out in nature, next to a pretty river or creek and It doesn’t matter much to me if you get skunked. I will always watch your content. You can put up all your videos that you haven’t found gold . Do it for the people. We will watch all of them ! Thanks
I haven’t been inside a mine for quite a few decades .,,ever since I was following 2 others who had already cleared the side branch to the right, and right as I got to the central point of the side chute, a mountain lion freaked out and decided to make her break for it ! That was the end of my mine exploration!
The danger is when the meltal is molten and then you throw something wet in it explodes. My high school shop teacher did just that. Btw love your channel, and Dan's too
Nice job but yes Dan needs a new gold mine. I am already subscribed to Dan's channel; I came here because of him. Now I have two very likeable gold mining channels. I am also subscribed to the fellow who is working the Cerro Gordo mine in South Eastern California.
I think most of us are in the same boat, with no experience with this type of work but deeply fascinated by it. Hell, I videos on cows getting pedicures too.
Hey these guys use neat words too. Crushin', hammerin', smeltin' oh my. Thanks Jason and ( Dan for the samples and mine day) A Blue Chip Special fer sure.
Hey Jason, Like you said at the end of the video - time to find a better gold mine! A lot of work & expense for less than a gram. Thank goodness the adventure was exciting! Looking forward to your next gold mine! Stay safe! Jim
Gents, first, TY for the team up. You guys are awesome together. Second. What (if anything other than video artifacts) are the phosphorescent red patches on the walls as you walk back into the adit?
I like making bismuth crystal pieces for jewelry..little eating sets or necklace pendants .. I even made a set of cufflinks with it.. I don't get a lot of requests or sales of them much..so I don't make it as often anymore.. but it is very fun to play with..and the geometric shapes it makes are beautiful. It is amazing how it naturally cools that way of forming those patterns.. It goes from basically chunky rock like ... to a melted liquid at not that high of a temperature.. and then when it cools again it is much like a metal.,but it is not ...and takes these beautiful geometric shapes . Maybe we can convince Dan to do an episode on using bismuth to make stuff or at least show about it. I learned about bismuth from a place that does smalting of ore to use for making rings and other jewelry.. the guy showed me what melting bismuth does and the reaction.. he gave me some of the pieces he melted down and then a small bag to take home and work with of raw bismuth.. I was visiting his shop in learning some new jewelry crafting techniques. I can't remember what it was he was working with . ... Some type of minerals or whatever with whatever stone or whatever and he had basically not been wearing protective gear and the stuff absorbed through his skin.. he had been dotit for years .and basically the toxin levels built up high enough he got sick and then started suffering serious medical issues and passed away from it . That's wear I started to study learning more about when working with certain materials and stones ... crystals and or gem quality stones that you should wear certain protective gear or not breathe the dust at all...to have an exhaust system and wear a mask....just in case. I didn't know some stone material is toxic to breathe the dust from it.. some are poisonous or toxic when leaching into water... Or give off toxic fumes when heated.. and you can never detect this unless you had special equipment to measure it.. and then it may be low enough levels that you would not know your harming yourself until levels accumulate and it's too late..damage is done..the levels are already high enough to have effect on you ..and it may of take years to get there..
Thanks for letting us know about the mining adventures, a couple of weeks ago I was browsing some of your videos and came across the one that you had some green rocks and showed us the gold in it, just so happens that I didn't have a clue that the green crap that I had brought back to the house was actually a golden treasure, I used the green junk rock to cover My dogs graves since they really liked green grass and the desert doesn't have a whole lot of anything green without spines, so to pay homage to then I pick up a bag full of the stuff every time I get out there, the hardest pieces I take back East to make jewelry from it, so you probably have a idea of what I discovered, Yes what was crappy rock is no longer, took a microscope and thanks to your videos I just may have found a gold mine. 😅😮😮😮😅
So much better than "Gold Rush" on Discovery channel. As a now retired federal firefighter I sure wish the Thumb of Michigan had some geology like this nearby... the UP is an 8-10 hour drive to the copper and iron country where mines abound... even gold too.
⭐ Great team work, Jason and Dan 💛 Love seeing the gold sitting on the inside wall Jason was working on - too beautiful to crush though, but slabbing would be fantastic ⭐ Hope to see a slab in one of the videos 🥰
Hey Jason! Been a fan for years. Could you do an episode on how to processes mustard water? Or your experiences with it. Love your work! Happy hunting guys!
I just love when you n Dan get together at Cerro Gordo silver mine exploring with Jason the owner of the mines n ghost town and watching the three of you prospecting the mines👌👌👍
Hey Jason, been watching your videos for a while! I live in your area and I’ve seen you at my sons school when I was there to pick him up. Didn’t wanna interrupt or anything to say hi at the time. I believe I worked on some rental equipment during a pole building build on your property or next door a few years ago. Anyway, keep up the good work and love the videos!!
Fun to watch you two guys with positive attitudes! I think the Romans would have said "dig, now". Apparently not rich enough for whoever dug the original adits. Who knows?
Man I love these videos. If I wasn't so scared of small dark spaces I could be with ya. I am better suited for the e-waste gold mining for sure. I watched mikes adventures with your foils. I am still a newbie but would like a try at them.
Gold - A human connector. Yay, what a result! Proof - move on which is always awesome. The next one could be 100 oz per yd. Thanks for all you do and great health to you and yours.
I just loove these colaborations of my favourite youtubers. And hey, when are you gonna process that Cerro Gordo slag, get rich and make more awesome vids with the other guys?
Jason's and Dan's skillsets and personalities really complement each other, making for a great team!
Exactly!
thats what she said!
Love seeing both channels working together. Both great channels!
you guys together make a great pair we can tell you guys are actually friends, 2 of my favorite YT shows yours and Dan's thanks for doing a great job
Never get tired of the time you take to explain how you have set up your shaker table. Basically learn something new each time. Great entertainment
Your colabs with Dan are great. You two have wonderful chemistry 👍
Another terrific collaboration. Thanks you two.
Shock of shocks... DAN IS IN A MINE! 😮🎉
This vid answered most of the questions I've ever had about hard rock mining. Then answered some I have never thought.
Some say Jason is all bismuth but I think he knows how to have a good time while he works!
Haha
Lol ❤
People have been kiln for less, you know.
Mine your own bismuth.

Great video! Dan is a awesome guy. You too Jason!

Always cool to see you guys working together

😊 Here's another collaborator of Jason and Dan: mineoperator
@@4seasonspixThink mine operator is chad like him as well
It's now the middle of winter 2024, and .mines
Are closed. But watching reruns of Jason & Dan anyway.😂
You two compliment each other so well. Great video!
Always good when you collaborate!
I enjoy watching you two together- you're a great watch on screen- I can see the genuine respect you have for each other.
Excellent team Jason! And that equipment of yours sure does get me a bit excited! Good stuff.
Jason ,jeff and dan my favorite gold miners Thanks
That was fun! Great video!
Thank you Jason and Dan
You both are entertaining. Jason great video. Start up in mine to smelting. We need more of these
I love these videos man, I’m not a prospector or miner, I’m a freaking software engineer, but I watch them all the same.
exact same situation, software engineer also. Haahaha
I frame houses but in another life… 😂
I think most of us are in the same boat, with no experience with this type of work but deeply fascinated by it. Hell, I videos on cows getting pedicures too.
They are rastering the gold
Hey these guys use neat words too. Crushin', hammerin', smeltin' oh my.

I love that this guy has everything in one video. Great work Jason
Been waiting for this one
Great video !!!!! You and Dan make a great team.
Cool to see closure even if it’s not a big gold strike. Your content is.
I really enjoy watching this union I must say... The way you both bounce off each other makes for great viewing!
🕊🇬🇧
I’m surprised at how little gold was in that great looking ore. Regardless it was fun to watch the entire process, thanks Jason
That's why the first miners quit.
@@Michael-rg7mx many
@@Michael-rg7mx Who wouldn’t quit for that little return? That’s garbage barely worth calling it ore.
@@megapint1626
That's only $200 per ton! That wouldn't cover expenses.
wonder how much into jasons back pocket
What an incredible collab. Again!! Awesome content!😉

you uplift my mining spirit with your fun at work
That was fun. Cool stuff. I know zip about any of this but it is fascinating and looks like a blast....even with the hard work.
⭐ Great team work, Jason and Dan 💛 Love seeing the gold sitting on the inside wall Jason was working on - too beautiful to crush though, but slabbing would be fantastic ⭐ Hope to see a slab in one of the videos 🥰
Great video. Jason when Dan and you make video’s together they are awesome
love seeing your colabs with Dan!!
Great videos guys. We know these are a lot of work. Thanks for making them.
thanks for the ride , enjoying you guys finding out if it is worth it
I just saw like this very big gold grinding machine, great job mate. greetings to our friend Dan Hurd
Hey Jason! Been a fan for years. Could you do an episode on how to processes mustard water? Or your experiences with it. Love your work! Happy hunting guys!
Please be sure to make a video about emptying out your tailings pond, once you get around to that point!
Beautiful collaboration, very entertaining videos on both channels
It is fun to watch the mining / smelting processes.
These two are the gold gods of our time!!
this made me happy.
thank you both
Great job Guys, enjoy learning from you guys thanks
Amazing video gentlemen. Love what you guys do keep it coming
I just love when you n Dan get together at Cerro Gordo silver mine exploring with Jason the owner of the mines n ghost town and watching the three of you prospecting the mines👌👌👍
*Brent* - owner of Cerro Gordo @ghosttownliving
@4seasonspix .....yes correct
Better luck next time. Thanks for the journey
We live in a magical and wonderful world. Everywhere you look stunning truths to be found.
Good stuff...love both your channels😎👍🏻
Some of my absolutely favorite content! 🎉
I have read many gold mines workings stopped because of the call to war and the workers never returned. the leases long forgotten.
It's the hope and friendship that will bring on the gold. (New subscriber).

Apparently not rich enough for whoever dug the original adits.
Who knows?
Amazing cave and formations!!
Love the colaberations
This channel collaboration is glorious
I'm thinking you guys get to have WAY TOO MUCH FUN!
Awesome video guys. Always interesting
You guys are amazing on gold mine.
Awesome adventure Mate. I'm wondering if you vacuum the floor you'll be able to get the gold that fell off the samples. Please stay safe everyone
Man I love these videos. If I wasn't so scared of small dark spaces I could be with ya. I am better suited for the e-waste gold mining for sure. I watched mikes adventures with your foils. I am still a newbie but would like a try at them.
33:32 wow thats actually super cool to see dont think ive ever seen it stuck in the wall like that
Yay, I've been waiting for this update.
What an outstanding video. I was riveted watching it.
thank you Jason better luck next time !
Can't wait to see the Customised Vehicles
Great stuff guys.... Jason... keep up the good work.
Some day that crusher will have to be moved and Dan has to high bank all that gravel sitting under and around it's base.
My thoughts too. Lol
It's his retirement fund xD
You guys are my favorite channels crossover!!!
I love when I hear Spokane mentioned, Lived here my whole life.
I especially like your collaboration vids.
What a good friend hey. Leaves you walking and packing supplies. Amazed you didn't have to pack the gen set too. But anyways good show and nice gold
Great video, was surprised on how little gold was there was.
But that's gold mining.
Dan is the miner most scared of mines. 😂 I slipped on a twig and aren’t gonna even look at that part of the mine 😂 😂
Can't blame him lol
Greetings from the BIG SKY. Yeah Jason. A very good collaboration with the Canuk.
Love all of your work. Hard work, no pun intended!
Gold - A human connector. Yay, what a result! Proof - move on which is always awesome. The next one could be 100 oz per yd. Thanks for all you do and great health to you and yours.
thank you for sharing the adventure and information 😀
Like seing these YT guys working together! Need to get Paulie up there, just keep him away from the crusher ;)
Well done, boys!
More exploration needed at Blue Tooth mine with gold prices going up !
Blue Chip Mine
I just loove these colaborations of my favourite youtubers. And hey, when are you gonna process that Cerro Gordo slag, get rich and make more awesome vids with the other guys?
your so fun to watch thank you
great video guys. thank you for sharing
Excellent video and very informative
