I love your videos because you don’t do very many shorts! Nothing better than being able to sit back and enjoy a 15 to 30 minute video of the great outdoors! Keep up the good work
I really enjoy seeing it too! The world won't stop needing rare minerals like gold anytime soon. But the sooner we switch away from methods like mercury mining & arsenic leeching the better
If you have never had genuine swedish meatballs, you don't know how good they are. My grandparents all emigrated from Sweden and one aunt could make the real deal.
14oz ground beef 1 thoroughly whisked egg (without egg the meatballs become dry, so skip the egg if you like them dry) 1 onion sliced into atoms (you can use a grate) salt pepper (personally I add some powdered cayenne pepper just for that rounded spicy taste) Mix together thoroughly like a dough, roll into balls. The technique is to roll them between palms, first tightly so they become flat, and then slowly cup the palms around the meatball to a good round size and stops swelling on its. The right amount of compression of the meatball is key, so it doesn't fall apart later. Fry in oil or butter, medium heat, flip/roll them around often for even searing. Done. /Swede with grandmother's recipe
@@gandalf8216 I would suggest that you simmer tem before frying. Put in a pot and let them simmer until they float to the surface. Then let them dry for a minute; and THEN go frying!
The gold mine I worked at had the gold frosted on the pyrite cube. We used a heap leach technique recovering the gold through a filter press using zinc dust and silver nitrate solution. Our bars has some zinc and copper so we used glass sand in the blast furnace to help get rid of a lot of the zinc. I ran the mining operation in the pit. It was a lot of fun. When they were doing a pour I'd go up and watch sometimes just for fun. The ore body was a shale type rock with disseminated sulfides and cross cutting hydrothermal quartz veins with chalcopyrite. Where the shale wasn't altered the sulfides were hematite in a grey shale and when they came into contact with the hydrothermal alteration the shale turned green and became softer like talc stone filled with pyrite cubes. Any areas where there would have been hematite there was now pyrite. The cross cutting red stained quartz was of a higher gold content than the altered country rock..
Nice to see some video from this mine, I have been there a couple of years ago, and I really hope the owners will be successful. BTW Rolf is a really nice guy😊 Greetings from Sweden🇸🇪
Swedish Blueberries is the real Swedish Gold! You Americans call em Bilberries I think, but they are so superior to the "bush blueberries" in sweetness, flavor and color. (They are blue throughout!)
Have been with the children to Sweden to panning gold several times with Rolf and the team. They have a really nice place in Ädelfors. Where you can wash gold all day at an old river bed. Twice as rich in gold as elsewhere in Sweden. Found your channel today and subscribed right away. 💯👍💯 Regards Kenneth the Norseman. Btw, thank you for sharing👌🤠
Hey Jason, Great video! Those outcropping veins are amazing! That one section had more pyrite than quartz - incredible!! Glad you had fun! Thumbs up! Jim
Jason, you had me worried when the videos stopped. Glad to see you're okay. I look forward to your gold claim videos and your Europe travels. Nice work!
So fun to have you in Sweden Jason. Hope you enjoyed it alot. Sweden has alot of potential, but the interest in Sweden for gold mining is limited. Everyone thinks that Sweden dont have any gold.
Well worth waiting for, Jason. I always learn so much from these presentations on your channel, and this one was no exception. When I was a kid, I thought the only two places in the world where you could find enough gold to mine was the Americas and the African continent, but I've learned over the years that plentiful gold can be found just about anywhere where the correct geological conditions are present. And it certainly looks like this Swedish gold mine has those conditions in spades! Thanks so much for another terrific video. As usual, it went way too fast! 😁 OBTW - How were those Swedish meatball sammiches?
Great video, well worth the wait. I really enjoyed your Africa videos as well so I can wait to see where you got off to next, and of course I can't wait to see you back at your mine.
Fun to see you drop by Scandinavia :) Interesting! I see gold prices peaked in 1980 to similar levels as today (inflation adjusted), but then dropped to a quarter of the value (again inflation adjusted) during the 1990s. This probably made the mining unprofitable. Also, it does surprise me that they left gold if they actually did process it back in the '80s-'90s. As far as I know, they could be almost as good at recovery as we are today - not that much has changed. It could be that they never got around to setting up a proper operation to process the sulfides and only got the free-milled gold, and what they get now is the, by now, liberated gold from oxidized sulfides. Have they tested the sulfides left in the processed and unprocessed ore? Would be interesting to see. Could be more fine gold there that needs more advanced processing. Haven't read the comments yet, but hopefully, we get some of the old miners/workers commenting - some of them are probably still around.
That Raptor epitomizes real miners go to vehicle. FORD AT ITS BEST FOR OFF-ROADING IN THE SWEDISH KLONDIKE! Great video showing their entire operation.
Great video Jason , IT looks like at that rate maybe the last shovel full will be in about 2 or 3 Thousand years from now, stocking that pond with some good. Eating fish would be a good idea also .
Sweden produces over 50% of the world's underground mining equipment and have some of the most efficient mines in the world. I hope ventures like this and stories like First Nordic Metals and District Metals helps put Sweden on the mining map again for investors.
I got some of your mine paydirt. It should be fun going through it without anyone knowing what the outcome will be. But I mainly got it to help support what you do for all of us with this channel.
Oh my god! No way you are in sweden, i have been watching you for along time and i just got on vacation for a week, are you still situated in sweden, because i know a cool place with quartz crystals which i havent explored much of yet :D Love the video!
How fun is this. I just been at there sister company 2 weeks ago to pan gold at there campsite that they also run. Really fine gold that they have up there.
Not trying to dox the mine but where about in Sweden is this? Like middle? Great video as always! Hope you enjoyed sweden! edit: I saw on the map now. Pretty close to where I grew up!
You are much to kind. Our english is maybe better than most europeeans due to a couple of facts. We have englishclass from early grades, we are used to have movies and series subtitled instead of dubbed wich i think is a man factor. And ofc, english music, swedish music with english lyrics has been popular for decades:)
I was once backpacking in the Eastern Sierra Nevada mountains in California. We took a right turn after Paiute Pass to avoid the crowds at Golden Trout Lake. We stopped in a nice meadow to have lunch and kept smelling strawberries, but not grocery store strawberries. It smelled just like artificial strawberry flavoring. Eventually we realized that the whole meadow was a carpet of alpine strawberries. Many strawberries met their end that day. Sadly, no gold. Bort, bort, bort!
Wow 😲 those guys have hit paydirt...✅ Just viewed Chris Ralph latest video... he's showing how to smelt...all about fluxes and such... Your channel gets recommended 👍
Not many times I'm listening to my native language on RUclips lol. Really cool seeing you making the trip to Sweden to look at an operation here. :)) Cheers from e long time Swedish sub 🤙🤙
It would be interesting if you could cover what techniques are that much better that allow them to get that gold out of tailings. I never would have guessed tailings that were modestly processed would have any worth.
It´s easy to understand the term gold fever as you are in my country and I could almost feel it and started wonder if there would be any other claims left to do this :D
That lake would be awesome for skipping stones...the kid in me had to say that lol I love wild strawberries, theyre far better than any bought version ..theyre the only ones I grow That entire area has a huge potential Wow the process the original miners were using was awful to leave that much gold behind but very nice for Rolf and the gang. Thanks for sharing
i know absolutely nothing about mines or mining, but this was really interesting to watch! :D also, i've never in my life heard someone say "a third of a meter" before :D
As a Swede, my inner Dwarf goldminer is humming in happiness!
You tall guys just couldn't be satisfied with the sky lol
Kanon kul grattis gubbar. Önskar er all lycka.❤

Please don't come to Finland. Our nature is already ruined enough.

Swedes are great in general that's why I married a swede. 😊
So delighted to see no use of chemicals, Mining operation approved!
Thank you for kind words!

Thanks Jason, one of the most exciting videos I have seen for a while.
Great to see, the new content is coming out , I'm ready for all the adventures.
Jason this was an amazing video. The slow motion video of that gold line on the shaker table was incredible.

Who are "everyone" and why do they think that? Sweden and Finland are the top gold producers in the EU. Sweden mined 8 metric tonnes of gold in 2019.
@@parsvanstrom5791 Not everyone is educated like you.
This is nice to watch just for the Swedish forest! Thanks!
Im from Sweden and yes it very very fine gold here
I have pan gold for 30 years now hehe
Great video
I had no idea we had gold near where I come from. I thought it was mostly in the Northern parts of Sweden. Eye opener for me. Great video
So where is this place?

Now we know where Jason has been for the past month. :) Thanks mbmm!
Beautiful pit, and Rolf's cargo overalls/jumper is awesome with all the pockets.
Really cool, always wondered what gold mining was like here in Sweden. There's not a lot of content out there what I found.
Surprice to see you pop up after so long and in my country! Welcome here man!

The thing is that they stopped backing money with gold. Thats when all went to shit.
It reminds me of NE Maine, where we called summer "the 3 months of no snow".
Cool team out there in Sweden! Hope to see more of their endeavors
❤ thnx
fun to see you visit sweden just live about one hour away from the mine :D
Cool adventure, Jason. It gets me excited for your gold mine vids.

Fascinating. As you said, it looks like those Swedes are sitting on a real goldmine.
Hey Jason, great way for ya to promote your equipment & a great location...
I was looking for mbmm on any of the equipment and didn’t see it. I thought maybe that’s why he was there?
You must have had a great deal of fun. What a great place. Good luck to them . Blessings
Awesome video Jason. Wow so much gold left behind.
Must have been a great trip. 👍 bucketlist place for me. There and Finland 🇫🇮
Awesome stuff Jason, it's nice to see again. Keep up the great work!
