    9:00 what a ripper 🤩and the other pieces as well very coool back to the vid…😳😳😳 what a monker holy cow that’s a beautiful nugget congrats,the work paid off. Nice tip for the Dutch oven. Nice history and sheep.. my son found an Australian Shepard mix puppy in the white mountains of Arizona in a snow storm in the middle of the woods so he brought it home. The dog lived 17 years and passed away a couple months ago he was the best dog I’ve ever seen he only barked when it was important and he was smart as a whip. From 3-10 years we called him Houdini because no fence could hold him he actually chewed through a gate made from pallet wood just to be standing out front looking at the windows of the house to show us he could lol. He was never trained but he knew how to heard other dogs and small children without them knowing they were being herded! I’m 52 and have owned and seen plenty of dogs in my day and that Australian Shepard mix was one of a kind 🤩😀 thanks for the great reminder and for sharing this adventure see you on the next one 👍🏼👊🏼

      Hi 48th, many thanks for your comment and I'm sorry that I'm so slow in replying. Wow! What a story. You can really see a dog's intelligence when you look in their eyes huh? I think Kelpies give off that vibe. And you really had a great run with your pup living so long. Thanks for the story M8 ...

    Yiiiiiiiiiihaaaaaaaaaaaaaa G'day mate good to see you back amongst us side chair prospectors lol. Wow talk about slowing a man down with that oversized Behemouth bloody things should be on big rigs on another road. Great idea of gridding your area and as for camping right next to your area. Amazing chunks you have found thus far and digging deep for them over there in the West. I have seen a few other prospectors videos and how things are going for poachers over there in the West!. Mongrels !! due to all th crap going on in the Northern Hemisphere the price of everything is going up. So the Dog's are out after all the scraps they can get their mits on one way or another. Anyway I wont get too much into that , am glad your out there like a true Digger doing your thing and keeping us at the edge of our seats with your awesome finds. Take care mate and look forward to the next upload 😁😁

    • @prospecting101
      @prospecting101  2 года назад +1

      Thanks Hot Rod, I appreciate your extended comments, and insight. Yea M8, those Big Rigs should have to pay a levy for using the WHOLE road and making us suffer. We all could split that levy, there is a highway police car moving everyone off the road, he could have smart camera, record everyone on the road that day, and split the levy that way. Those Road Trains (3 Semis together) are really inconvenienced when they have to pull way over, stop, then get all that weight going again. Damn! I'm rattling on as much as you! heheheee Cheers ...
