    I wonder if something like a archenemies screw, an auger in a pipe , would be good fir pulling up sand and gravel from a creek or river bottom. A 2"-4" pipe with a auger inside , spun with a drill, have a dump on the side of the pipe, maybe 36" long, a 1" pipe handle anf a ³/4" hoop handle about mid way , have the outlet dump so a large hose can be clamp on it. 2"+. Maybe have a water jet spray into the pipe outlet, so it can be washed into a large collection tub, or 5gal. bucket, with a cloth covered bottom, with small holes in the bucket, use denim or something to cover the bucket so it doesn't hold water, maybe make extension attachments, for deeper water, maybe 3-4, 36" extensions, a lawnmower inner tube near the top, so it floats, with weight near the business end , possibly a teeth ring attachment for the end to help it dig , a spiked tip for the auger. Seems it could work to process gravel in water. And on dry land, just
    Using the auger, using a detector to find the area would be the best, just curious!

      Gold bearing rivers have loads of rocks of different sizes including boulders, which make screws break.

    Chris how do I find the source of the nuggets I find ? They are really smooth surfaced but not in a stream rather on hillsides

    • @ChrisRalph
      @ChrisRalph  Год назад +1

      The gold may becoming from an old river bench. Checkout my video on the topic of tracing gold to its source. See: ruclips.net/video/Q3lwdFf0y9M/видео.html

  • @hosgs14
    @hosgs14 Год назад +3

    Got a question: Do you re check the dirt after you throw it back on the ground? ( the stuff you dont go over the detector after you get the alert). In case you miss another nugget. Great vid Chris.

    • @ChrisRalph
      @ChrisRalph  Год назад +2

      Yes, and sometimes you get an extra nugget out of it.

    Hi Ralph always enjoy your video's, how would you find an old River Bed. I live in the uk & travel to Scotland several times a year. would you look at satellite images were would you start. I know and have books that have test areas showing places that have gold, but old River Beds.

    • @ChrisRalph

      Look for signs of river gravel well up from the creek on the sides of the stream.

    Hello Cris, greetings from Sinaloa, Mexico.
    I watched your video several times where you teach how to use the gold bug pro and the Teknetics G2 as the cheapest detector to find gold
    I wanted to know if you already know the Chinese clones of these devices. I bought a tx-850, which is the Chinese clone of the Teknetics G2 and it has served very well for relic coins and small objectives, but I have not yet tested it well for gold. This clone costs around 150 dls on aliexpress
    Have you already seen some of those, this is the one I told you about, the tx-850 and another one called goldfinder fs2

    • @ChrisRalph
      @ChrisRalph  Год назад +2

      If you think the "clones" are equivalent and the same as the genuine detectors, you are wrong. The clones look similar on the outside, some times very similar, but on the inside are very different. Usually when you buy cheap Chinese you get cheap Chinese junk.

    • @Detectandofierro
      @Detectandofierro Год назад +1

      ​@@ChrisRalph I think it could be an interesting video to compare the operation between the original and the Chinese clone

    • @ChrisRalph
      @ChrisRalph  Год назад +1

      Years ago I compared a GPX5000 clone to a real GPX 5000. The clone could not detect large objects even when they were touching the coil. Problem is there are dozens of fake Chinese clones. How one compares tells you nothing about how another clone would compare.

    • @Detectandofierro
      @Detectandofierro Год назад

      @@ChrisRalph Thank you very much for your answers, what happens is that I have never used the original because it is not in my budget. In the master detector store here in Mexico, it costs around 1000 dollars for the gold bug pro, but I already used the clones (goldfinder fs2) and ( tx-850) and at least as coin and relic detectors they are quite good on my channel I have some videos with them in case you have time

    Why not name some of these pits and/or throw up a map of where they are/where to park/how to get there? Help some of the people w/the research? Some are obvious like Malenkov though as I understand it people can't root around in that location as it's a park. I'm thinking about the people that aren't local to Gold Country.

    • @ChrisRalph
      @ChrisRalph  Год назад +1

      I worked at it and learned to do research for myself. You can do it too. Gold is money. If you ask someone to put you on the gold they found, it is the same as asking that person for money.

    • @uwillnevahno6837
      @uwillnevahno6837 Год назад

      So at no point did I suggest that people are put onto the gold found by another. As part of an educational process we give students a starting point. I'm asking/suggesting sharing the location of a well-known hydraulic pit to kickstart the journey of people. There have to be plenty of hydraulic pits that are well known. If you pointed 1000 people to 1 pit and they spent an entire day metal detecting I think we'd all be stunned if collectively they found 200 grams of gold. @@ChrisRalph
