    I give you a ton of credit for being able to withstand the constand beeping of your detector while shoveling or chiseling around it. It drives me crazy when mine does that. I don't look for gold in Maryland, but I did in California. The first Silver coin I ever found with my detector was a 1545 Mexico City One reale. I found it right here in Port Tobacco Creek off the Potomac River, about a mile from my house. I was stunned when I first saw it. I didnt have a clue what it was but knew it was super old and super rare. When I realized it was the oldest coin minted in Nort America I was elated!

    Idea for opening the caves or any caliche wall. Get a battery concrete saw that can go 6-12 inches deep. Cut a grid pattern. Break out the 6-12" cubes with a pry bar. ..it might come out in whatever size bricks that you cut, & the cutting will take minutes. 🤷🤞🏻

  • @WheelieShinyGold
    @WheelieShinyGold 2 года назад +17

    I'm really at a loss of words for how amazing this video is, from start to finish! Who did all the drawings (amazing) for the drift mine? I also was wondering what would happen if you actually DID hit a water table, and are you worried about that?? I like how you easily summed up the first year into "research". Researching for an entire year is probably pain staking. Everything about this and what you did to get here and what you're doing now is nothing short of amazing. You put so much work into this video, and to look back from when you started, it must have been a challenge (mentally) to remember and to think about what you've been through with your father over the years and since the start. Tell Lila thank you on our be half for being amazing as well. You never fail to mention she's your saving grace, and we can clearly see why. Just remember you may be down there alone most of the time (physically), but we're at your back cheering for you and always excited to see what's next! I can't believe the size of that MONSTER, I actually started shouting at the T.V. "OMG GET OUT, ARE YOU SERIOUS!" ..seriously couldn't believe it hahaha! Congratulations on such amazing progress. If it isn't obvious enough, just know that you are, in fact, truly an inspiring person and there's never going to be another Jeff Williams. Thank you for what you have done over the years, and continue to do. Better thank Lila for us as too, because behind every good man, there is a good woman! This video definitely ranks in my top 5, thanks again!

Check on the worms too may have found a new prehistoric species. Also the worm fossils could be worth money. Many mad people like me collect fossils and crystals. Pay good money for unusual things.

    I always heard where you see those little beads you'll find gold. Some of them are glass, some are diamond, some are ruby, other minerals and precious stone/ minerals ect. Stuff left over from when the earth was hot, then rolled around for millennia with dirt and water, ect. My grandma's backyard had all different color of them in it and where I would see them I would see little tiny flakes of gold, all over her yard. I always saw so much of those things I never thought to collect them really, and definitely never thought to keep them.

    Come and listen to my story about a man named Jeff
    A poor mining man, barely kept his family fed,
    And then one day he was pick'in underground,
    And off blew his pants once he'd seen what he had found.
    Au that is, shiney gold, Nevada Nugs.
    Well the next thing you hear "ol Jeff's a millionaire",
    Went to New York city so that you could buy a share.
    He said "Buy them now at a very nominal fee",
    Then you cash them in later at your nearest treasury.
    Bank of Slim's that is, mining-pools, bullion bars.
    It's The Ask Jeff Williams show !

    Hi Jeff. The bedrock of kaolin soils. They are illite and alonite, the presence of alonite caused the washing of general soils and gold was separated from them and accumulated in the form of nuggets. It was a very informative and interesting clip. You are the best professor in the field of identifying gold-rich soils. I love you one world.

    relace your dynamite with Dexpan, You drill a 1.5-inch hole however you want. Dexpan comes as a powder. you get a bunch of holes ready then mix up your powder with water.
    Give it 4-8 hours and come back and it will be all broken up. Best way is to pour your slurry at the end of the shift. When you come in the next morning everything broken up, no need to wait for air to clear. They use this a lot in cities where they cannot blast rocks and old foundations

    For the cave system just have to slide a muck sheet under and slashing a drift with your opening, you done the mining soo right jeff!
    You should also bring your slusher behind to the ore chute you made, dig well as you can and drill a pin hole to fix the pulley at the face and scrape out the muck straight into the bucket before set track, you will be good for a good hundred feet of easy mining by this way.
    Soo many technique are good anyway, but if i can use slusher, specially an air slusher, its operating fast and really well, add extra pulley to scrape floor even more further ☺️

      I think by driving a drift cut in the waste caliche with enough room for the slusher then once the waste is done you bench it all and scrape a long section of ore sound good ☺️
