  • Prospecting for gold is unpredictable. I sometimes swing my metal detector for days and days without finding anything interesting and other days I might dig out a nugget right next to the camp within the first minutes. Not giving up is one of the secrets of finding gold. Metal detector used in this video: Minelab GPZ 7000.

    @rodevans602 Год назад +35

    Congratulations! Hard work rewarded! As an old gold geologist with plenty of WA time I can tell you that it was the mineralised ‘greenstone’ which really got my juices flowing! The white shiney mineral might be arsenopyrite (smells like garlic when scratched), commonly associated with gold. The most exciting part however was the fine gold you got in the pan from just one corner. This would indicate very high grade ore in the context of a hard rock gold mine!
    If the ground is available for mineral tenure I strongly recommend that you get some pegs in the ground! If the area is already under EL, as I guess is likely the case, the license holders should give you a decent reward for short circuiting their exploration process. Good luck!

    • @OutbackGoldFever
      @OutbackGoldFever  Год назад +8

      Thanks for your feedback Rod! After a few conversations with my mates and comments on this video I realise I'll have to go back and pick up the rock to see exactly what we're dealing with here, a few said it could be platinum 🤷🏼‍♀️. Pending EL.

    • @rodevans602
      @rodevans602 Год назад +4

      @@OutbackGoldFever Hi Krissy… On balance I wouldn’t expect platinum to be very likely to occur in that context. Although there is nothing to preclude the occurrence of platinum deposits in the WA Yilgarn, they would be more likely in association with ultra-mafic rocks rather than mafics. The cobbles in your creek, including the mineralised one, looked very much like meta-basalts (mafics) to me. Of course I shouldn’t be too pedantic about such things without any specific local knowledge or an opportunity to crack the rocks myself!
      For all that, I would admit that ‘back in the day’ most gold explorationists were very gold focussed and rarely ran a platinum assay. So you never know what slipped through the net. Things were a little different in nickel mining, in ultra-mafic host rocks. Nickel sulphide concentrates commonly had minor platinum credits, and of course nickel deposits frequently occurred in the same neighbourhood as gold deposits. So…… whatever!
      Good luck to you; I hope it all works out to your advantage!

      @rodevans602 Год назад +3

      @@johnramirez5032 There are many possible analytical methods depending on sample size, anticipated grade and the mineralogy of the sample. But in a case like this a regular fire assay with ICP-MS finish would do the job, to give Platinum, Paladium and Gold in the range 0.01 to 100 ppm (grams per tonne). The Australian Laboratory Services web site quotes this service at $26.30, plus preparation costs and maybe a batch fee, so for a single sample, about $45 to $50 would cover it…. In the case of Krissy’s rock I’d assay at least two pieces; one from the mineralised end and one from the ‘unmineralised’ portion, where the pinpointer didn’t react - which could still have a couple of grams/tonne, and still be ore…..
