I once dropped 3 grams of fines in my bathroom floor. Swept the whole floor with a paint brush onto an index card and into a pan. Managed to recover 2.9 grams of it.
Watching these videos makes me miss summer because it was literally 28⁰ F today... Then I remember I live in Texas and it won't be cold for very long and I should appreciate it while I can
You and Gadsy entertained me while ive been messed up for 2.5yrs after a cerbral angiogram d.e.i fuck up at the gold coast university hospital . I dig in a lamporite mine , but have a hankering to hit the golden triangle . I appreciate the knowlege you spit .
That was a fantastic video. Thanks for sharing the carpet spill scene, it's a rare opportunity to get a good demo on how to deal with that! I'm new to this and the very first time my kid and I went to weigh our total gold from the year, I tried to pour it on the pan, used a brush and the brush bristles amazingly flicked all of the little gold flakes and micro gold all over our dinner table...which incidentally had cookie crumbs all over the place. So, I was able to collect everything that looked suspicious and eat it....er I mean pan it out again. Anyway, thanks for posting your vids...gold panning is a new hobby that my boy and I started earlier this year; your videos are fun and kid friendly ...99.5% :-)...the 0.5% isn't too detectable, and thanks for that too!
Hey Chris, you make a ply pusher the same profile of the hopper in the high banker so you don't need to push the rocks around by hand so you can pull/push the rocks in one go, or even dam the end of the high banker up when you're digging clay filled soil.
Wow at the 9:35 mark when you did that pan reveal i nearly skipped to the end to see the final weigh in. Can't wait for the next episode where you break out the gold monster 1000 on that mat
I always get a kick out of the brush and the guitar pick at the end of your vids. Never change! Congrats on the awesome location. Keep the vids coming and Merry Christmas.
Another great video Chris. I've been subbed for a long time. Always eagerly waiting for the next. Your editing is superb. I'm from the UK, no gold here, well maybe in Scotland but I just love the channel. Top respect from the UK 🇬🇧
A rag over the end of the nozzle on the vac cups in when the vac is going work great ,,,better than the way you did it as the gold stays on the rag and doesn't go through the machine
Been there.My grandkids poured a 1 ounce vial of fine gold over the christmas tree to get more sparkle.That was a chore but I did recover 99% of it.I did not recover the 5g nugget they decided to polish in the sink.The trap did not catch it.I think the dish washer had enough power to push it threw.Moral is hide your gold from kids.Great vids and merryX mas to all.
Chris, can you make me happy by putting a reducer on the end of that yabbie pump. The smaller pipe extend up into the larger pipe a bit and will catch gold as well.
always wondered if there was a way to attach your water suction pipe to the top of the abby pump and have it suck directly of the bottom into the sluse. would save time and if it was a great pump would suck up fast something like water archaeologists use put with more umph since your just picking up stones etc then you know the bottom would just be clean and just gold to dig out with facemask or bucket viewer ie bucket with a glass bottom. :)
Great system you have. Nothing like dredging in the comfort of you own home lol😁👍 I can't wait to get the Paydirt i will have to make a video when I pan it
Always great videos and content. And GOLD! Not to be a know it all. I hope you go over your tailings with the SPC. I do QA/QC (15yrsplus) on very high tolerance machine work, electronics/cables, etc. I can tell you that if you go too fast, when doing visual checks, you will miss something even if you've done it a thousand times. Painful in the end of the Vid. Gold dust is in your filter now.
Next time when you drop your gold on to your carpet, (wich I hope will never happen again) just use a piece of cloth and a rubber band, or a coffee filter in front of your vacuem cleaner, that way you can suck up your gold, without having the chance some gold getting lost inside your vacuem cleaner. Loving your video’s keep up the good work!!
hi mate. If there is gems there it may be worth getting a set of gem sieves and busting some sieves with those course tailings. you never know where a nice big saphire may be hiding
I don’t know dawg! Doesn’t sound any dirtier then telling us your going back to the glory hole😂 Beautiful gold and awesome creek Chris, thanks for sharing!!!
You didn't mention selling off an exclusive type of pay dirt. Miners carpet, :P a new way to replace what's there, if that's a thing ; ) Fully enjoy your shows.
Do you have a messenger account. I can share a few pictures and short videos. I just started prospecting this year as a hobby and had a bit of luck. Again, sorry about your loss of your best friend and prospecting partner. Thank you for sharing. Daniel.
Don’t know why RUclips put this on my feed but Cool vid man. Must be a drag to haul out all that gear. Am thinking the fish hate you for messing with their stream. Lol
I know you dont like advice . But again if you would set your Highbanker up as a 2" drege at the vaccume nozzle take 10 ga wire and make a cross at it to keep rocks from jamming it up . You will increase your gold content . Heck you may get by with an Inch 3/4 in let that pump will handle it no problem and you can make the venturi system from PVC sink pluming
You should've put a t-shirt or rag over the vacuum nosil and then you wouldn't have to empty the vacuum.....used to knock over the bong mix all the time in my teens 😂😂😉 now you'll have to try and get the flour gold out of every riffle in the vacuum hose flex 😂😂
Solar = all day run time. Complicated answer. The dream mat is very good but also very short. On this small gold, 100-300 mesh, if you over feed it till loose 20%. Keep to the correct feed rate it'll keep 98%.
@@VoGusProspecting thanks so much Chris I love your high banker videos I just never heard how often should u clean your matts on da videos. Thankyou for your information Chris on that it's slow for me but still learning how to do it properly but any how I am getting a little bit of of color 😁😁🤠
This was a rollercoaster of emotion. That beautiful pan! And then... But then...
It's been really cool seeing your cinematography evolve over the course of the past year Chris, These highbanking vids are also my favorite.
I’m seconding this. Cinematography on point. Video making level strong!
I once dropped 3 grams of fines in my bathroom floor. Swept the whole floor with a paint brush onto an index card and into a pan. Managed to recover 2.9 grams of it.
At the end of the season, old timers would burn their miners moss and pan the ashes. Next time you move house, burn your rugs... lol!
Greatly edited video....this is the 3rd video I have watched recently where gold has been vacuumed up....pioneer polly and two toes!!!

Nice work Chris I want you to take me out on one of these adventures when I come yeh 🙏🏼
Of course
After that t shirt on one video and the picture behind you, its hard to concentrate M8 LOL!

nice vid good close-up of the spec. and a big thanks for the trip down memory lane with the picture of young and jackson's chloe

awesome spot. winter here in Colorado so great to watch your videos!!
You're in trouble now that zoey knows you can use the vacuum. More house work for you 🤣🤣.
I know right 😂😆😂
Ya only because it involved finding gold. In this case refinding it lol
Wow that was a great find then oooops tere goes the pan at least it happpened at home where its alot easier to recover have a good day chris peace out
I guessed .7 !!! Beatcha😂 definitely need to snipe that bedrock now.👍😉💛
Great video. Vacuum t-shirt? Nice! And congrats on 70k Supporters Chris! All the best my friend from this old moldy hat! Cheers from Canada!
Thanks for sharing! Looking forward to seeing whats on the rock!

Great as usual!
Thanks for your time and effort Chris, I look forward to your video's the most, out of all my gold channels.
Morning Chris!! Great video as always!! Merry Crissy and happy Holidays to you and your family.
Nice painting of Chloe you have on the wall.
Very professional Chris, I like it 👍
LOVE the new angle mate really works !! another great vid to match it !!! thankx from Brendan and Gin n b safe over Chrissy
Happy Holidays Chris & Family
Couldn't find any larger rocks then ? 🤣🤣. Nice vid . Stay safe and healthy 🇬🇧
Video evolution, your skills are levelling up chriss 😊🏴
Enjoy watching your videos and I learn alot while watching.😀
Love the grizzly light show in the back.... Ive made a few like this in school.. Awesome job bud
Chris, just so you know, brother. You are definitely not the first person to pan out your living room carpet vacuuming. LOL!
A rag over the end of the nozzle on the vac cups in when the vac is going work great ,,,better than the way you did it as the gold stays on the rag and doesn't go through the machine
Legend says VoGus Prospecting never came back from the Vacuum Dredging Adventures! Awesome video Chris! Merry Christmas!

Thats a rough day
Man the gold in the rug was unexpected but I know Pauly would be extremely jealous because his rug didn't come close you're cleanup :) Stay Well!
Appreciate the absence of music, it's like being out there yourself :)
That the idea mate
Nice gold Chris! Merry Christmas🌲
Those XP pans Rock, it is only pan I use now. Love it, great product for flea poop.
I always enjoy your show !!!! Never a dull moment 👍🏻
That is awesome!!! Love your videos!
Maybe you should start using Miners Moss for carpet. It makes accident clean ups easier. Great videos.
Chris, can you make me happy by putting a reducer on the end of that yabbie pump. The smaller pipe extend up into the larger pipe a bit and will catch gold as well.
"I'm on a very strict time schedule" - Vo-Gus in a nutshell xD
hey chris should tell pauly how to get a better spec count out of a carpet lol great vid man look forward to the next

best info friends ,, !! greetings from the Indonesian Traditional Gold Finder ,, 💞💕🇲🇨🙌🙋💯👍
You have reached a new level of prospecting Chris, congrats! What are your next goals this season?
Damn it's refreshing to see good camera work... and the gold too of course!
I'm trying really hard
Great system you have. Nothing like dredging in the comfort of you own home lol😁👍 I can't wait to get the Paydirt i will have to make a video when I pan it
When did you order it?

Nice gold. Bet there was a few choice words when you dropped it .🤬 lol. Great vid 👍
Great video Chris
Great video. Need to get those nuggies. Might be time to move to Canada.
yeah man I see i am not your electrician. lol.thank you for sharing the adventure and nice gold.
That was quite the pigtail on that battery, Well worth the effort tho, I would like to see the content of that quartz specimen you found..
You moved a lot of rocks, Chris, so I guess .......... YOU ROCK!
When you do the pumping thing how does the gravel not fall out as you go from intake stroke to over pan or buckit?. Thankyou for vidios
Because it's still under suction
Hope you are thinking of diverting that creek, you could clean up big time once the bedrock is exposed.
Lmao...I had just dropped a bunch of fine gold in my carpet also 😆
I love the solar panels! Are they charging the battery or supplementing the pump? Video quality continues to improve. Look forward to the next
Charging the battery.
Hi Chris. Can you please give me the specifics of your 12vdc battery and how long will it keep your pump running. Thank you for sharing. Daniel
18amp, give me 2 hours on a 2,000gph pump, all day with the solar pannel.
Do you have a messenger account. I can share a few pictures and short videos. I just started prospecting this year as a hobby and had a bit of luck. Again, sorry about your loss of your best friend and prospecting partner. Thank you for sharing. Daniel.
Working like a man that has a wedding to pay for. Awesome video as always
And thats how you find gold.....twice!
If u put a stocking on the end of the hose u should capture everything you dropped and there will be gold stuck in the hose
Nice cleanout.
Thanks!
Don’t know why RUclips put this on my feed but Cool vid man. Must be a drag to haul out all that gear. Am thinking the fish hate you for messing with their stream. Lol
Quite the opposite, they come eat the bugs we stir up.
I spilled my gold vial once on the carpet. I feel you
Nice. That`s a very nice little creek you have. Why is the water so cold? You`re not in the mountains are you?
I forgot to say I like your setup for your high banker, using punch plate type grizzly instead of expanded or rod type. Gotta keep the flat chips out.
awesome as always how many offers to clean your carpet lol
11:30 im not sure if youtube will like that painting lol
Nice another video. The videos are gold themselfs
Oklahoma USA says Hey there and looks like your having fun 😎🤙
I don't do any sort of Gold hunting, Yeah I know crazy since I live in Las Vegas, but I was wondering if you could use one of those sucking dredges?
Unfortunately they are illegal here. Thanks for watching mate.
lol ! Never thought about trying a gravity dredge ?
Illegal.
Did you look for sapphires in the tailings pile?
Loveing this new spot m8.
Yeah me too
A vacuum??
Well, that sucks....
Make my day Chris.
You've been watching pioneer pauly and how he found a secret pay layer in his bedroom
Apparently at one time that hole was the drop of a waterfall
Chris I couldn't help but notice that you moved some rocks on this day.
I checked your shop but didn't see your knife for sale anywhere. Is it available for purchase?
Ahhh, carpet gold!
I know you dont like advice .
But again if you would set your Highbanker up as a 2" drege at the vaccume nozzle take 10 ga wire and make a cross at it to keep rocks from jamming it up .
You will increase your gold content . Heck you may get by with an Inch 3/4 in let that pump will handle it no problem and you can make the venturi system from PVC sink pluming
Dredging is illegal in Australia
You should've put a t-shirt or rag over the vacuum nosil and then you wouldn't have to empty the vacuum.....used to knock over the bong mix all the time in my teens 😂😂😉 now you'll have to try and get the flour gold out of every riffle in the vacuum hose flex 😂😂
Do you put the rocks back when finished?
Sure do mate
How much does your solar array help? How much gold do you find in the bottom section of the sluice (percentage wise)?
Solar = all day run time.
Complicated answer. The dream mat is very good but also very short. On this small gold, 100-300 mesh, if you over feed it till loose 20%. Keep to the correct feed rate it'll keep 98%.
Do you ever metal detect the sluice over run ,to see if any escaped or was inside the rock?
Yes, every time.
Hi Chris how often should I clean out my 6"gold rat I made the hopper for it and put miners moss in da back of it please help
I run mine all day
@@VoGusProspecting thanks so much Chris I love your high banker videos I just never heard how often should u clean your matts on da videos. Thankyou for your information Chris on that it's slow for me but still learning how to do it properly but any how I am getting a little bit of of color 😁😁🤠
