yes I do think that is pretty cool ....would love to a few core samples on it ..... beautiful area and so much Gold ....love the set up on your Gold Rattler..... now that is some good looking Gold ....might have to get a claim down there after seeing that ....good job my brother ... we smashed that like button ...Smashed it HARD !!!!!
Yeah, I was very impressed with that dike too. I'm wondering if the enrichment settled further down from the surface? I didn't see any evidence of drilling, so I bet it has good potential. 👍 The material we were running came from a claim about 5 miles up the road. Members dug up 35 buckets and brought it back to the camp where the Rattler was parked. Contained a lot of silty schist, rendering that chocolate brown appearance. But that's ok. It contained good gold. Thanks for smashing that "Like" button my Brother ! Yeehaw !!
Thanks great compliments Doug ! Hope you and Chuck get one some day. 👍👍 We'll try to get out in the public more often so folks can have a feel on the operation. Our next show will be a the Placer Pete event at Coolgardie, north of Barstow. March 24-26. Best of luck to you Bro !
Hey Allan, a great turn out🤙 I am GPAA but wish I was LDMA lifer for sure💯🌟 That was an awesome set up out there and yes, the rocks came out nice and clean☺️ Can't wait to get out to the San Domingo area and get me some shiny soon🔥 Thanks for a great day out Allan🏜️
Hi Lisa, Yeah it was a great time out ther. Weather was perfect ! We all sat around the campfire at night sharing stories. Everyone got to take home some gold. That was my first visit out there too. Looking forward to doing more exploration ! I will be at the GPAA Placer Pete event at Coolgardie, near Barstow, Mach 24-26. Best to you !!
Looks like everyone was having a good time. Seeing them shorter ladies getting the bucket up there to dump it was quite a challenge, BUT they did it!! I was going to say they were older ladies but then I had to stop myself. I bet they're right around my age... And I'm not old just yet... LOL I'm just physically broken at this time in my life... Soon in God's time I'll be back out having fun looking for the shiny and other pretty rocks... LOL... Thank you for sharing the videos, they really help me keep dreaming of the day I'll be back. Until then I got y'all's videos...
Hey Bobby, I bet we are ! Hahha ! Yeah, the one lady was bold and determined to step up there. She actually poured in several buckets. The other ladies did too ! 👍 We all had a great time there. God speed on your recovery ! Hope you can get out there soon ! 👍👍👍👍
Hey Melvin, thanks for the kind compliments. It's a real eye catcher, and it works. LOL ! Glad you enjoyed the video. If you haven't seem my previous Gold Rattler videos, stop by my channel and check the out. Hope to have this unit in production by mid 2024. Best of luck to you ! 👍👍👍👍
Very nice Allan! It was really neat to see everyone taking a turn trying it out. If any event had people that need that, it's there! Question, a lot of that gold mizer dirt looked more like black potting soil. Did they bring that from somewhere else? Also, at 10:18 you have a shot of the clean rocks, but there's a bit of water pooling under the unit on the ground. Was something not right? I haven't seen that before? Were people feeding too fast? Not a criticism, just curious if you know where and why the water is coming from so you can get it back in the system. Anyways, what a great time! I wish I could have heard all the speeches! Sounds like there is some controversy regarding gates going on! Go get em! lol
Hey Chris, you noticed that too ? Yeah, the material (35 five gallon buckets) came from a claim up the road a few miles. The "potting soil" was black sand mixed with silty schist, rendering that chocolate appearance. First time I've ever seen it look like that as well.... The Gold Rattler was set up on a slab of hard clay in the middle of the event camp. The water pooling underneath is from the moisture retained in the tailings as it rolls off the plant. Usually you don't see that in my other videos, because the Gound absorbs it. It's part of the calculated loss (40 gallons) for running a yard of material. Thank you for being so observant ! 👍👍👍👍
I've discussed this in previous videos. It is completely dependent on the type of material. High clay and silt content verses stream gravel makes a huge difference in the viscosity factor. Generally speaking, I can run about 2 yards of gooey clay material, or about 5 yards of stream gravel before purging, which is excellent, considering using only 40 gallons to wash a yard ! This includes washing all rocks up to 5 inches diameter. Obviously, someone running higher production will have a proportionally larger reservoir of water to operate with. For hobby prospecting, this machine will outperform any typical high banker recirculation system. Thanks for watching ! 👍👍👍👍
@@allansgoldmining wouldnt more filters, do so eventually it would run longer ? but yeah but how long would it take to run those 5 yards ? and 120 liters are not too bad for 2 yards, of gooey clay, i really enjoy your videos and i wondered if, doing a prewash of all material would make your system to be able to run longer?
@Ragzuz definitely more filters could extend water life. You could add more sand filters and tubs for sure. The current set up is designed for a single operator using pick and shovel. It would take most folks all day to run a couple yards, which is the niche market I'm targeting. The Gold Rattler can handle up to 2 yds/hr. Not sure if a prewash is necessary ? The vibration and sprayers of the upper deck do a pretty good job. If you're working dry, harden clay, it may require soaking several hours ?
@@allansgoldmining i saw your machine is insane at cleaning but due to that fact it also put heavy stress on your sand filter to keep all the silt and clay out which is why i was thinking it would help the lifespan of it if a prewash, but idk really you would need a large container for that sort, since you're limited on water, what can we do to make your water usuage more effecient :)
@Ragzuz the only other option is a centrifuge. I've looked into that a couple years ago. It's what the coal, gas, and mining industry use. Unfortunately, to scale one down for small production is cost prohibited, and would take up a lot of space.

That mechine is just awsome.nice job Allen. Haven't seen anything out there like yours

Good Day Allan,,were you out prospecting with your Gold Rattler just this last weekend in the Arizona area off the 93? I thought I spotted you 🤔
Nope. Must have been an impostor. Lol ! I was out there, but nowhere near the 93....
Very nice Allan! It was really neat to see everyone taking a turn trying it out. If any event had people that need that, it's there!

Have you come up with an estimated cost for the rattler
Hi Thomas. The estimated cost is about $4500. Haven't settled on and exact price because inflation has been a factor lately. Best of luck to you!
i would love to see a timelapse of how fast or slow the water gets muddy like thick vicsous xd of how long that system can last xd
