Jason let me just say I am appreciative of the fact you aren't like dave from goldbay who literally tries to sell the underground video of him finding any gold in rocks as a NFT collectible, you're about learning and teaching and definitely always entertaining because you like to explain what's going on and how things work, Keep it up dude.
@@chubbydinosaur9148 just imagine the guy that made a few mil from a tiny digital cartoon put in his applications for Walmart lol. Whether you think it's stupid or not that guy made more out of that silly nft than Walmart would have made him.
Slabbin rock, slabbin wood, you'll have no problems reinforcing your mine this season. America needs more people who know how to do things. You're the man
Jason, That sample was very rich but even if the average amount is half or a quarter of that, you may be the first You Tuber to show us the Gold in them thar' hills o' the Cascades! This is going to be an awesome adventure. Cheers, Rik Spector
That is some very nice ore! $16k per ton of ore is great. Hope those values hold up as you start digging and processing tons of ore at one time. Still, sounds like scale of operation will have huge impact on profitability. Can't wait to see how this evolves!
I couldn't care less about gold and it's value, but there's something addicting to mining and panning for it. I love how you explain the geology and the chemistry behind mining and refining the material.
Saw you this evening with Dan Hurd and the Blue Chip ore test. So I came over to this vid. Very interesting! I sent this vid to relatives near Lynden. Loved the close ups of the cut quartz slabs.
I can't wait for more from that mine, especially if we can do a ton in one go! It'll be cool to see how many ounces come of said ton cause it'll probably be a mixture of very high to mediocre grade. Brilliant video tho dude, the whole process is fascinating and you're an amazing host, could listen to you for days on end
Bismuth be your lucky day! Lol! Jason if I wasn't such a old beat up antique, I'd GLADLY😅 come over and muck that mess up for ya! Lol! Keep the materials coming! Keep that prospectors beard on, I seen Dan trying to hide this enormous crystal in his! lol! Love it all! 😂💰👍🤠
Jason, I don't see any collapsing roof debris in that area but the room seems a little large to have no roof supports. Please don't let your excitement for that rich vein cloud your judgment. Love your discussions as you go.
i really like learning about the prospecting and processing. Thank you for sharing! i just learned there is a hazard to crushed quartz. How concerned are you about silicosis?
Hi Jason, Fantastic results! Really looking forward to seeing the results from the muck on the ground! Should be some exciting videos coming out soon! Thumbs up! STAY SAFE!! Jim
Wow, Jason! That's an incredible amount of gold in that ore. To be able to mine ore like that is so worthwhile! I can't hardly wait to see your next videos to show your hard work paying off! Go get'em! Blessings from Alabama ❤️
If your crucible’s are sticking down in the furnace, place a bit of cardboard under your crucible prior to firing to prevent it from sticking (edit: thanks to bigstackD for the awesome knowledge”
Hey Jason. Crazy idea. Take it or leave it. One episode I saw you used a helicopter to transfer your rocks to a location from the mine. The other day I watched a video where this guy bought a affordable drone that could carry his body weight with ease. Approximately ( 230 lbs ) why not look into getting one for transporting your rocks? It would make your job way easier, and save costs in the long run. Sometimes I'm sweating just watching you. Lol lol. Your video's never disappoint. Keep up the good work. 👍😎🇨🇦
I'm super excited to take this journey with you on this. I've Watched Jeff Williams for years and still in his mine. I've watch you for years mainly for smelting purposes but I enjoy all you post🤙🏻. I wish you would experiment with Acids. I taught myself with melting silver and For gold with AquaRigia. Both are Very easy to make and much cheaper and fun than smelting. Your end result with smelting after acid is pure powder. Smelting is so very easy. Anyway. Good luck and happy hunting.
Hey Jason! Been watching you for years, and just wanted to say thanks for helping to inspire me. You and Jeff Williams are a wealth of knowledge, and I'm super excited for you opening up this active mine, I know it's gonna be a hit! I got outbid last time, but I'm gonna win some pieces hopefully this round....but fyi, they're going for a ride in my little mill ;-) Take care man!
I went and looked through a couple pieces of serpentine I collected from my local river with a 90X loop and was amazed to see a few little pieces of gold, some bright yellow gem, some black gem (likely obsidian or onyx) in certain little areas, and bright silvery flashes all over the rock. One little piece of gold is standing right next to a tiny little piece of what appears to be quartz in it. I guess they do run together.. really makes me wish I had my own truck and could take a few hours to go explore the mountains around where my grandparents are buried and find a big deposit of serpentine and see what I can find in it, I have found asbestos crystals on pieces up there before but never thought their might be metals in it. I still am not 100% on what that bright silver/white metal is, I'd think exposed silver would be grey by now... maybe zinc or titanium? The only things I can find to alloy bismuth with would be tin or antimony. After cutting all those slabs you'll eventually need to clean out all the muck from your saw and smelt it down.. I can promise you there's gold in there.
Your videos are always super interesting, thanks for the great content! I'd understand if it's sensitive information, but I would be interested in seeing more of the financial side. Did you buy that mining claim or are you leasing it from someone or the state? And how much does hauling the ore out cost vs the gold you get?
Cool stuff Jason thanks for sharing 1/4" is perfect for cabachons. Maybe just a little lead to soften up the bismuth? Keep the copper. I think you're headed in the right direction with the bismuth mix.
As always I just want to say that you are a very nice, and knowledgeable young man and I look forward to seeing more of these prospecting and hopeful mining videos in the future. I hope you hit the mother load.
Looks like there are tellurides in there besides the gold. Handy tip for sampling Jason: Get yourself an empty milk jug (because they are square and fit against the face). Leave the top on it and cut the bottom off with a box cutter. Now you have a jug with a handle that you can hold against the face under your rock hammer to catch the sample. Easy peasy to pour it into a sample bag and you don't have to get your sweatshirt filthy using it as a drop cloth. If you need a chisel, then you'll need a helper to hold the jug unless you have three hands.
Nice to watch, keep up....🤠🇩🇰🇬🇭 Rgds Danish Viking living in GHANA 🍻 I've been following you for some time, and as always it's education and nice content....!!
Good stuff Jason it will be interesting to see what your oz per ton drops to when your not high grading but taking the whole vein. Love that disc crusher that thing always amazes me do they still make those??? Thanks for sharing see you on the next one 👍🏼👊🏼
Jason have u ever tried using those electric blasting caps they use to break rock? I was wondering if they could be used in a gold vein to aide in mucking out ore,from what ive seen they are low impact meaning they dont produce a huge blast,i watched Dustin from gold rush white water use them to break rocks in the bottom of his hole that he was dredging,seems like an economical way to muck ore.
I enjoy your videos Jason! Thank you! Just had a question that no one seems to be able to answer. Do you know if iron pyrite is attracted to a magnet?? Thinking it should be because of the iron.
I look forward to the day you decide to clean out your rock saw and pan the dust! All these rocks you have been cutting have gold so I hope you make a vid of that please 🥺😂😊
Pretty good stuff! As long as the ores come down in the mine and you don't have to haul them up its all good. :) So, are you going to process the ore all the same way? That powder maker looks a bit small if you want to do tonnages through it. How many kilos are you expecting to get this year? If I guess that ore is about a square meter you are going to get out with the eye-drift and about 8 meters long. You should get about 8x1.5x.25=3kg of gold, which is about $190k worth of gold, presuming the value found in the ore is the same and a cubic meter of ore weighs 1.5 ton. So it actually is worth it to spend all time this year to get it done while it is a big payoff. As long as you stay healthy and safe it should be worth it. Greetings, Jeff
Question; if there is that much gold still left to be found in that mine, why was it originally abandoned. Sorry if you had already answered this question in an earlier video, but I just caught wind of your channel at this point in the series and it peaked my curiosity and interest. I'm still undecided whether I will subscribe and follow along on your journey.
Gee thats about a rich as it gets! Is that a mesothemal vein? Any wall rock alteration with gold in the sulfides? Looking forward to seeing you mine it!

Goood stuff Jason ,))
Been watching you for over a year. Great stuff. And, I've learned a lot! Big thanks!!
I love your combination of real science and mining common sense. Keep it up Jason.
Looking forward to a great season for you Jason, .... Much Gold and many blessing on the year ahead. ⛏⚒⛏

Can't wait to see how this evolves!
I look forward to your mining season. Be safe!
Can't wait to see the blasting in the mine 😊
Hell ya Jason! I'm eagerly waiting for these upcoming videos.
Woo hoo! Nice. Look forward to seeing all your machines in action getting the good stuff out!
I couldn't care less about gold and it's value, but there's something addicting to mining and panning for it. I love how you explain the geology and the chemistry behind mining and refining the material.
Saw you this evening with Dan Hurd and the Blue Chip ore test. So I came over to this vid. Very interesting! I sent this vid to relatives near Lynden. Loved the close ups of the cut quartz slabs.
the patterns on the cooling materials is always mesmerizing.

I enjoy the way you are teaching us to do the same . Much love to you for the share. Can't wait for this season.
Pretty cool watching your videos because i wouldnt be able to go down there i get to see how the process works which i would otherwise never see thnx
Awesome video Jason. I found it very interesting. Good job 👏
Man I love your videos keep it up enjoy every video man good luck on the mining.
I'm so excited. Great stuff!
i really like learning about the prospecting and processing. Thank you for sharing! i just learned there is a hazard to crushed quartz. How concerned are you about silicosis?
I love that little thing you attach to your camera phone. That's awesome
That's going to be an awesome mine can't wait to see more of it thank you for sharing this six stars brother
Hi Jason, Fantastic results! Really looking forward to seeing the results from the muck on the ground! Should be some exciting videos coming out soon! Thumbs up! STAY SAFE!! Jim
Great job guys 👍 👍
Thanks for sharing. More gold please. I appreciate it.
Hi Jason. Fantastic vid. Use silver as collector! The pros in Mauritania swore that the Ag works best :)
That is amazing! Good for you. Love your videos.
Really stoked here...wish you all the best.
Awesome can't wait to see what you can get done once the snow melts!!
Congratulations on the new hammer! UPGRADE🎉
Look forward to the mining videos
Gold! I love Washington! Stay blessed bro! Maybe ill see you out in the fields one day!
Wow, Jason! That's an incredible amount of gold in that ore. To be able to mine ore like that is so worthwhile! I can't hardly wait to see your next videos to show your hard work paying off! Go get'em! Blessings from Alabama ❤️
Most interesting and informative. Thanks Jason!
Fun videos, Jason, thanks.
Can't wait to see more of the mining videos

just seen that from bigStack

man im super excited for the videos of the mining season coming up!

I live in central Oregon and we just got some snow in them thar hills…Good Luck Jason

اشكرك لقد عرفتنا على خام الذهب شكرا
Great stuff! I'm really looking forward to seeing the golden harvest coming out .
Mined in the homestake mine in South Dakota in the sixths and sevevtys. Thank you.
Looking forward too seeing some big gold.
1/4" is perfect and easy to work. Keep up the great work there very educational 👍
Good Luck JasoN!!
The knowledge and expertise! And the videos are so well made.

Thanks from Australia
18:13 very nice !
Oh hell yeah great way to start a Saturday!
Could you recommend some good resources for learning about smelting and the chemistry behind it ?
Pouring the stuff into a rag isn't a bad method, but for as often as you're doing this you should really get yourself a Buchner funnel or two.
i very appreciate this video thanks it's sure i see your next video !
I want a countertop made out of that gold ore quartz!! 🤔
props for not using any toxic metals! i've never seen it done with bismuth before, pretty sweet
I enjoy your videos Jason! Thank you! Just had a question that no one seems to be able to answer. Do you know if iron pyrite is attracted to a magnet?? Thinking it should be because of the iron.
Good grade. Does the width carry, or is the good stuff only the narrow part?
17:40 always my favorite part, molten ore cooling in the mold.
Jason, how many tons of ore are you hoping to remove prior to Winter setting in at the mine?
Thx for the vid!
I look forward to the day you decide to clean out your rock saw and pan the dust! All these rocks you have been cutting have gold so I hope you make a vid of that please 🥺😂😊
Amazing value . I'm thinking your mine is on my Baker .
737👍's up thank you for sharing 😊
Pretty good stuff!
As long as the ores come down in the mine and you don't have to haul them up its all good. :)
So, are you going to process the ore all the same way? That powder maker looks a bit small if you want to do tonnages through it.

Jason, you were kind of cherry-picking that ore, lol, still, beautiful!
What an interesting video.
❄ You guys still have snow? ❄
Kudos for the 'manly attempt' to snap that corner off the slab. 😏😎🖖
Wow good mine, waiting for good gold bars to be made from your mine.
Good job 👏 👍
I was wondering what you were doing.
You had quite the time apparently 😊
