🤔 Hmmmm Pauly. Let's see now, you could open a kids playground behind Andy's house? Or, put it in all those buckets and use it for backfill during the reclamation phase at one of Andy's claims? Or, put it in Ziploc bags and sell it with lemonade on the corner...? 🤣 The possibilities are endless!
For the money he spent on just the buckets he could have, those buckets are $21 for a 3 pack so he probably spent around $150-$200 just on the buckets and they didn’t even need more than 1 or 2 of them lol.
@rexhorning7228 Yeah, I think the key here is the source of the sand. From where I am at, I could order a load of sand and there would be even less gold in it.
i did the same, honestly if I wanted some gold I live in california 10 minutes away from the San joaquin river i just need the gear and know how to pan for gold but there is lots n lots of sand along the shorelines
One problem is that "Home Depot" sand doesn't all come from the same "sand pile". California mother-lode sand may have more gold than Kansas sand or Mississippi sand. Sand tends to be sourced locally and bagged for Home Depot as near to the point of sale as feasible because it's heavy and expensive to ship.
I'm glad you mention that because some of the bags had really fine sand, and others were much thicker. It would be cool to figure out exactly which piles came from where 🤔
I used to love to prospect for gold. That is until I started finding enough gold that I could quit my day job to prospect full time. It's not as much fun doing it full time as it was when I was only doing it on the weekends.
Yup. As soon as you turn a hobby into any type of real "work" it seems to suck the fun right out of it. I have no idea why. I guess it's the lack of freedom to do it how/when you want.
I used to breed tropical fish, then I bought a tropical fish shop. 3 years later I closed it and I have never had a fish since. "Make your hobby your job and you will never work a day in your life" RUBBISH - you just lose your hobby. I now make mens bespoke handmade historical suits as a hobby - I REFUSE to commercialise it. I make for family and friends and people who are super passionate and happy to wait my time scales. But I dont take commissions.
In Arkansas there is a diamond mine you can buy bags of dirt fro and search for diamonds in it. You can also go there and dig up your own. Its a public mine inside Diamond Mine State Park, they dig it out and spread the dirt out in a huge field for you.
It's actually not a mine. In that area the kimberlite pipes come up to the surface. It was a farmers field and he gave the land to the state. The park does grade the surface of the field daily I believe so to give people a better chance at finding the diamonds with out having to dig. But you can dig if you want. There was a large yellow diamond found there and Hillary Clinton wore it when her husband was governor of Arkansas.
The thing is that diamonds aren't rare at all. They only have value because of the labor involved in cutting them and the fact that the deBeers cartel has artificially manipulated the market since they established it.
The whole gold prospecting experience for me is the excitement of discovery of the hidden gold, minerals and gemstones. Prospecting is a fun hobby that stops being fun when you expect to profit. It's the journey, not the destination that drives my curiosity.
Send me about 10 of those buckets! Also, I’m sure the manufacturer is aware of the presence of Gold. They probably determined it was more profitable to sell the sand without running it through a trommel first.
@grantrennie I live in a gold bearing region that has 3 sand pits which supply sand for most of the major vendors(you would be surprised how rare construction grade cement sand is). Other than screening it, they do not run it through a wash plant. I suppose your employer was an exception and is probably the ones that sell the pre-washed play sand.
They probably run it first to make sure it is clean enough to be sandbox ready! And any profitable gold that is readily available is already been removed.😢
Well we clearly have a bracket here to say absolutely without a doubt it isn't even worth the labour, never mind the equipment and maintenance. I assume the sand has already been graded to whatever efficiency to remove a quantity of gold already.
In 1987 I spent 3 months in Fairbanks, AK. When I was not working I was in the old gold fields for hours slushing tailings with a home made slush, then panning my concentrates in a steel pan and picking out the tiny bits of gold I had. These two guys got much, much more gold from that HD sand. Amazing. I still have the pan, the tweezers and my gold find in a small glass container. And a good memory.
You could offer to clean everyone’s sand from playgrounds to get more gold panning possibilities… and maybe someone needs sand for a beach on a pond they have, or a rec park for their sports area.
Is gold really worth it to buy ? In terms of the short term considering taxes and overall cost of upfront purchase then trying to resell when I actually need the liquidity, is physical or gold stocks more worth the cost ? Because it seems to be when people speak of gold their not being specific to the short term or Long term approach to justifying the purchase. Let me know your thoughts , thanks anyone
Only worth it for your long long term investment, short term a guaranteed loss. It's all manipulated and so is Mike bias on gold because that's his business. Always keep that in perspective.
Gold is often seen as a safe-haven asset that can protect against inflation and economic uncertainty. But like any investment, it carries risks. To determine if gold is the right investment option for you, an investment advisor can help you weigh the potential benefits and risks of investing in gold. They can also help you create a well-diversified portfolio that includes gold as part of a broader investment strategy. An investment advisor can help you decide how much of your portfolio should be allocated to gold and select other investments that can complement your gold holdings.
Glad to stumble on this commentary, I've been getting suggestions to use one, but where and how to find one has been challenging, Can i reach out to the one you use?
We live in Northern lower Michigan where glaciers deposited a lot of gold along with sand. In many areas I find a flake of gold per shovel full of sand (sometimes a lot more). One day I am planning to sluice a whole mess of it from my yard. Cheaper than buying sand. lol
@markchandler1828 He has Michigan sand. It's better than all purpose sand. After all, he lives in Michigan. And I have Michigan sand in my yard too. Only I live in Ohio.
I really enjoyed that video PP. That was super cool and entertaining. And ya know, it may cost a lot to do that but it's quite amazing there was that much gold! Hell that was cool ... Win, dude 🎯
I took a trailer from u haul and filled up the roadside dirt from the pechanga area, when they built the wider onramp, to large scoops in the 6x12 open trailer off to home we go. in the end , i sluiced out all the gold and gold detected the some rocks and in the end, ended up with 8.72 oz of gold out of 4000# of dirt that the contractor was throwing away? the rock got crushed and got extra 1.21 oz out of the crushed rocks, to hell with 64 bags of sand, the area is rich of gold , but since i was removing the dirt with the contractor i didnt get in trouble because this was pechanga casino property,
Very doubtful!!!!!! professional prospectors won't get 8.72 ounces from 4000 lbs of dirt OR..... did you mean to 4000 tons???? More fairy tale than a true story! 😆
I work at Pechanga. You said the new on ramp, I'm assuming that is getting on the 15, next to L.A Fitness ? But you said it's owned by Pechanga, , that's owned by Caltran, I think, it's not on the Rez...I'm a little confused. If you can be a bit more specific, I would like to grab a few buckets and have some fun. Thanks. John
good to hear you’re finding colors in anza, i live in cahuilla and i plan on digging in some of the creeks down the street from my house. interested in what i might find.
Coming to a local Park near you...😂 Pauly borrows Andy's trommel without permission 😮 taps into a local fire hydrant for water 😮 and cleans up at the local kiddie play area 😂
Completely wasted almost $400 on the buckets, truck, and fuel. He never needed the buckets cause he could just have poured the sand out of the bags… and he never needed the truck because Home Depot is free same day deliveries for orders even a fraction that size
Paula, can you do a video with a yard of sand dumped from a local Canadian sand pit? That would be awesome to know what you find from an area that has gold.
I live on the shore of Lake Michigan and find flour gold most every run. I use the Blue Bowl to recover it. Quicker and easier than setting up my sluice.
Which was a bigger waste of time and money dude making 25 bucks off $1,000 worth of product and a whole day of hard labor? Or people watching this video?
In Alaska there's spots where they paved roads with tailings from dredges, there's nuggets over the size of the dredges screens in the road now, people have told tales of finding big nuggets in the road.
There's a Home Depot in northern Arizona which is literally built on top of a very productive placer gold deposit. Panning the dirt at the edges of the parking lot paid well enough to go back multiple times. About $20 per bucket at 2016 gold prices.
Saw a guy on an outdoor channel do the same thing about 20 years ago. I have found small amounts of gold in some mountain creeks in East Tennessee but nothing near anything worth the time and effort it takes to sort through all the rock and sand. Still fun to do when you have the spare time!
After watching: HOW did you Over Pay for Play Sand @ $874.50 USD? Its only $5.98 per bag and you only purchased 64 bags of Play Sand? Buckets you can get FOR FREE from restaurants recycling or trash and Hot water wash them out.
@PioneerPauly Lowes and Home Depot in USA New England area near Canada have the sake Sand for only $5.98 per 50lb bag of Play Sand. Sometimes, Lowes Home Improvement has them on sale for only $3.98 USD per bag. Can have it delivered to the U.S. Canada Border line, even with a private mailing address, such as a P.O. Box w/ UPS nearby, and pick it up.
@SoFreshSoClean2024 A $5.98 bag of sand at current exchange rates is $8.18 Canadian. If in Ontario add 13% sales tax. Then add in delivery fees and it's cheaper to buy it in Canada
About fifty years ago I was in the vicinity of Fairbanks after a particularly snowy winter. Seeing the gold in the sand alongside every stream or river was exciting, although the amount was trifling. Easy to understand people getting gold fever. Upstream of where I currently live, on the San Joaquin River in central California, they built a big dam in the 1940's and gathered the gold, which paid the cost of mining all the gravel.
In the Arkansas river valley there are large deposits of sand. Around the turn of the last century, 1890s+, in the Witchita area, several companies were formed to dredge for gold. While they revovered moderate amounts, they were never profitable.
What should I do with all the left over sand? Return it? 😂
eat it
Yes. Say it was too sandy
🤔 Hmmmm Pauly. Let's see now, you could open a kids playground behind Andy's house? Or, put it in all those buckets and use it for backfill during the reclamation phase at one of Andy's claims? Or, put it in Ziploc bags and sell it with lemonade on the corner...? 🤣 The possibilities are endless!
Mega castle
Take a bucket at a time when you go to the creek and put back into the earth.
Sell it as purified sand with the heavy metals removed.
For twice the money!! Or more with the right label. Guiccify it!! Good thinkin' on your part though. Didn't occur to me.
its what I would do haha
Genius.
"Vegan sand"
You got a work out and the ladies are laughing 😃 over a beer.
For the money spent, you could have paid a dump truck driver to dump 20 yards of sand in your driveway.
For the money he spent on just the buckets he could have, those buckets are $21 for a 3 pack so he probably spent around $150-$200 just on the buckets and they didn’t even need more than 1 or 2 of them lol.
Harder to handle that way though.
I wonder if there is any gold in their local sand that would be the way to go.
@rexhorning7228 Yeah, I think the key here is the source of the sand. From where I am at, I could order a load of sand and there would be even less gold in it.
😄 🤣 😂 😆 😄 🤣 😂 😆 😄 🤣 😂
The real gold here is the 500k views on youtube.
1.3M*
1.4m@KBratcher11
Simp
Yeah, this dude is mining clicks, not Au.
And still counting
Definitely one of those videos you go straight to the end
Or not watch after reading the comments
i did the same, honestly if I wanted some gold I live in california 10 minutes away from the San joaquin river i just need the gear and know how to pan for gold but there is lots n lots of sand along the shorelines
Bro has vampire teeth
😅I was looking for this comment 🤣🤣🤣 I dont blame just its true 👍
64....64 bags of sand. Ah, ah, ah ,ah!!!
I was hoping they'd find some silver and turn into dust.
A dentist could round those down some.
$25 worth of gold for $1,000 worth of materials AND a full day of labor. “Not bad” he says 😂 ☠️
YER BUT THINK HOW MUCH THEY MAKE SELLING THEM BAGS OF PAYDIRT THAT HAS ALREADY GONE THROUGH THEIR SLUICE...😂😂😂😂
Welcome to gold prospecting my guy.
Don't forget nearly a million views on youtube can be $2000 to $30,000.
Well, at least they covered the cost of a few of the buckets 🤷♂️
Water bill
One problem is that "Home Depot" sand doesn't all come from the same "sand pile". California mother-lode sand may have more gold than Kansas sand or Mississippi sand. Sand tends to be sourced locally and bagged for Home Depot as near to the point of sale as feasible because it's heavy and expensive to ship.
I'm glad you mention that because some of the bags had really fine sand, and others were much thicker. It would be cool to figure out exactly which piles came from where 🤔
Construction sand is not as processed as kids sand, it's another opportunity to save some gold
@PioneerPauly for where i live all the sand pits are marked publicly. in case you need a crapton of sand.
or mabie 3 yards to search for gold..
In canada, there are virtual tons of gold mining operations and they may be making a few bucks on the side selling fine sand.
Florida sand is the BEST. ( jk, nothing at all in it)
I used to love to prospect for gold. That is until I started finding enough gold that I could quit my day job to prospect full time. It's not as much fun doing it full time as it was when I was only doing it on the weekends.
hire me hire me 😂😂🤣🤣🤣
What State are you in? Id love to quit my job and prospect instead
Yup. As soon as you turn a hobby into any type of real "work" it seems to suck the fun right out of it. I have no idea why. I guess it's the lack of freedom to do it how/when you want.

@VoidHalo Because all of a sudden results matter more than the enjoyment.
The pioneer paydirt is probably the leftover sand dried😂🤷♀️
The real gold is donating all of that ran sand to the local playground sandbox. I’m sure the neighborhood kids appreciate it.
In Arkansas there is a diamond mine you can buy bags of dirt fro and search for diamonds in it. You can also go there and dig up your own. Its a public mine inside Diamond Mine State Park, they dig it out and spread the dirt out in a huge field for you.
Thats so cool to know!! Thank you, it’ll probably be closed by the time i make it there but thats something to go on the bucketlist
It's actually not a mine. In that area the kimberlite pipes come up to the surface. It was a farmers field and he gave the land to the state. The park does grade the surface of the field daily I believe so to give people a better chance at finding the diamonds with out having to dig. But you can dig if you want. There was a large yellow diamond found there and Hillary Clinton wore it when her husband was governor of Arkansas.
Over the decades people have found some great diamonds at that park.
The thing is that diamonds aren't rare at all. They only have value because of the labor involved in cutting them and the fact that the deBeers cartel has artificially manipulated the market since they established it.
@briansmyla8696 Are Debeers Immortal Vampires? cause I have heard of diamonds being a thing since before the time of the Crusades.
Dude is a Daywalker Vampire, check out those fangs! No wonder he found gold.
Are those fake?
Well we know he's not looking for silver
At first I thought he was playing a prank when I saw those fangs! 😬
Dammit got there before me.
Love them fangs! I wanna see them capped with the gold you find
Home Depot will now be doing this before it hits the consumer
The whole gold prospecting experience for me is the excitement of discovery of the hidden gold, minerals and gemstones. Prospecting is a fun hobby that stops being fun when you expect to profit. It's the journey, not the destination that drives my curiosity.
Send me about 10 of those buckets! Also, I’m sure the manufacturer is aware of the presence of Gold. They probably determined it was more profitable to sell the sand without running it through a trommel first.
I worked at a quarry, and the sand was laced with gold to the point that you could see the wash plant run off sparkling at night with a flashlight
@grantrennie I live in a gold bearing region that has 3 sand pits which supply sand for most of the major vendors(you would be surprised how rare construction grade cement sand is).

Have to say I expect gold in my sanding creek behind the house
I miss Andy's content. I hope he is doing well.
I came here to say the same thing, love Andy!
@Archimark1 I second this!
Same here! Loved his channel
Is nobody going to talk about his giant canine teeth? I kinda feel like he's a werewolf...
If someone tells you to buy Home Depot sand and get paid off with all the gold you find mixed in it, tell them to go pound sand.
This guy's the national sales director for the Home Depot Sand Department.
Ya know Pauly… you could have used the buckets to hold the sand after it came out haha
really nice to see Andy again, have a wonderful day!
"I'd say these are almost more cool to look at than gold" we'll make a totally addicted rockhound out of you one day.
I love the smell of inside Home Depot, especially the lumber area.
Yeah me too
In 1987 I spent 3 months in Fairbanks, AK. When I was not working I was in the old gold fields for hours slushing tailings with a home made slush, then panning my concentrates in a steel pan and picking out the tiny bits of gold I had.

I was 4
I was 5.
Not sure why RUclips threw this into my feed, but very entertaining video 😂
15:29 that one piece of gold look like its flipping the bird.
I thought the EXACT same thing!!!!! Two great minds think alike!!!! ✌️
Vampire guy is really optimistic.
You misspelled pathetic
You could offer to clean everyone’s sand from playgrounds to get more gold panning possibilities… and maybe someone needs sand for a beach on a pond they have, or a rec park for their sports area.
0:53 *brings like 30 buckets* says Andy needs SOME😂
"We should return the sand back to home depot."
Costco would
With today's return policies, you probably could
Pioneer Pauly, the peppiest prospector under a tuque!
Ok, I gotta try this for myself! 😂
Prospect pat and pioneer pauly need to collab on a video
You Northern Canadians are friggin resourceful as heck. Much praise

Her name is Rebecca Lynne Buie can't divulge much. Most likely, the internet should have her basic info, you can research if you like.
FRAUD ALERT!! These comments are all designed to con you.
This will get a lot of views mark my word
We live in Northern lower Michigan where glaciers deposited a lot of gold along with sand. In many areas I find a flake of gold per shovel full of sand (sometimes a lot more). One day I am planning to sluice a whole mess of it from my yard. Cheaper than buying sand. lol
Nice, I live near Detroit, hoping to get up north to prospect this summer
@jerryjayson67 Study the glaciers, bring a pan and sluice box and shovel some sand. Gold is everywhere up here.
@TheDoItYourselfWorld Thanks I was Thinking of camping at the Porcupine Mountains soon so we''ll see.
Why didn’t you use all purpose sand ?
@markchandler1828 He has Michigan sand. It's better than all purpose sand. After all, he lives in Michigan. And I have Michigan sand in my yard too. Only I live in Ohio.
Keep in mind that high grade ore only yields between 8 - 10 grams per ton.
This was 1.5 tons of sand
Lmao that intro should be the sale pitch
finally Dracula opened his YT channel!
I really enjoyed that video PP. That was super cool and entertaining. And ya know, it may cost a lot to do that but it's quite amazing there was that much gold! Hell that was cool ... Win, dude 🎯
Your at about a 97% loss. RUclips video earned about 4k, your at a 300% profit 📈.. Win Win.
Andy is your version of my Mick
@VoGusProspecting we need more Mick as well please 😁
Facts🤣 hi chris
@adventures-with-joe We do indeed. I dunno about you, but I haven't had any for 7 years mate !
The way that he put in the foot on him made me burst out in tears 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Ok am i crazy or is homie a vampire?
Been missing Andy Thrax where you been hiding Andy
If you could get rich from homedepot sand, every homedepot employee would quit tomorrow.
oh please there to lazy to do the job they were hired to do 😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣
No they wouldn't. That's why they're working where they are.
Thanks for bringing Andy back 🙏. I loved the video. Thank you, Pauly
ANDY! YAY!!! More Andy!
This was fun to watch. Great video production!
0:02 that left handed chunk of gold tossing the middle finger is amazing.
𝓘 𝓼𝓪𝔀 𝓲𝓽 𝓶𝓪𝓷
You should try getting the sand from a bulk source. Would be cheaper to purchase something not packaged.
SO much cheaper. I just bought a yard of sand, it was $60.
Exactly. , im done with the crap made up drama. Music mix etc..
@gregd637 Oh come on, its entertainment.
I took a trailer from u haul and filled up the roadside dirt from the pechanga area, when they built the wider onramp, to large scoops in the 6x12 open trailer off to home we go. in the end , i sluiced out all the gold and gold detected the some rocks and in the end, ended up with 8.72 oz of gold out of 4000# of dirt that the contractor was throwing away? the rock got crushed and got extra 1.21 oz out of the crushed rocks, to hell with 64 bags of sand, the area is rich of gold , but since i was removing the dirt with the contractor i didnt get in trouble because this was pechanga casino property,

Sweet! I'm right up the street from there. After a good Rain I go out to the creek past Anza and do some panning. I got some flakes.
I work at Pechanga. You said the new on ramp, I'm assuming that is getting on the 15, next to L.A Fitness ? But you said it's owned by Pechanga, , that's owned by Caltran, I think, it's not on the Rez...I'm a little confused. If you can be a bit more specific, I would like to grab a few buckets and have some fun. Thanks.
John
good to hear you’re finding colors in anza, i live in cahuilla and i plan on digging in some of the creeks down the street from my house. interested in what i might find.
Looking pretty beefy there, Pauly! You’re definitely hitting the weights hard in 2024.
I met a guy years ago that had a gravel pit. He washed all the sand through a trommel, the gold he got out paid the expenses on the operation.
Yes sir, how much bullshit would you like, all of it? Very well sir
😂😂@RaulPerezperez-c3j
All I keep thinking as I watch this is my father's gravity table he used to run to separate metals in foundry sands.
Coming to a local Park near you...😂 Pauly borrows Andy's trommel without permission 😮 taps into a local fire hydrant for water 😮 and cleans up at the local kiddie play area 😂
should have got utility sand because play sand has been screened down and cleaned for children's play boxes just like pool sand
I was thinking the same thing, I work in a bagging plant that makes Sakrete.
Paul got all the kids crying 🫡
😂
They needed the buckets and sand for their grow operation. The gold was just for fun.
I think we need to see a 10 yards of home depot sand video!
Just you wait, we got a much bigger one coming 😂
@PioneerPauly Dump truck of home depot sand? 🤣
😮
@PioneerPauly Is it 'Playground related'?
he is a vampire
Completely wasted almost $400 on the buckets, truck, and fuel. He never needed the buckets cause he could just have poured the sand out of the bags… and he never needed the truck because Home Depot is free same day deliveries for orders even a fraction that size
It was all for the video. He made way more then $400 on the 2.8 Mill views
😂
I wonder how much of the flour dust gold floated away!! Lol
You had me there right until the very end....LOL This was a fun video.
Paula, can you do a video with a yard of sand dumped from a local Canadian sand pit? That would be awesome to know what you find from an area that has gold.
Didn’t mean to call you Paula. 😬
I live on the shore of Lake Michigan and find flour gold most every run. I use the Blue Bowl to recover it. Quicker and easier than setting up my sluice.
Which was a bigger waste of time and money dude making 25 bucks off $1,000 worth of product and a whole day of hard labor? Or people watching this video?
Haha
In Alaska there's spots where they paved roads with tailings from dredges, there's nuggets over the size of the dredges screens in the road now, people have told tales of finding big nuggets in the road.
4:35 Look at the third nugget from the left. Gottem! 👌🏻
😂
There's a Home Depot in northern Arizona which is literally built on top of a very productive placer gold deposit. Panning the dirt at the edges of the parking lot paid well enough to go back multiple times. About $20 per bucket at 2016 gold prices.
Is dude a vampire
Lets goooooo
Both of you got enough buckets for a lifetime now lol
3:30 i dont either Pauly but i love it 😂😂
Only trouble is they start biodegrading and go brittle
@timandrews1613 oh, didn't know they were biodegradable. Thanks for the info!
They arent....but in the sun they do go brittle and break. Keep em in shade and it takes a lot longer
@RICDirector ahh gotcha
Saw a guy on an outdoor channel do the same thing about 20 years ago. I have found small amounts of gold in some mountain creeks in East Tennessee but nothing near anything worth the time and effort it takes to sort through all the rock and sand. Still fun to do when you have the spare time!
I saw you in my home town of Biggs California once saw your camp car
Pauly has the best incisors ever! I'm jealous
🦇
@PioneerPauly Canines. With the beard you got Lon Chaney jr. vibes for days...
They're fake. You can hear how he speaks that they aren't natural.
After watching: HOW did you Over Pay for Play Sand @ $874.50 USD?
Its only $5.98 per bag and you only purchased 64 bags of Play Sand?
Buckets you can get FOR FREE from restaurants recycling or trash and Hot water wash them out.
The bags were $12-something CAD, and the buckets being right there were just super convenient
@PioneerPauly Lowes and Home Depot in USA New England area near Canada have the sake Sand for only $5.98 per 50lb bag of Play Sand.
Sometimes, Lowes Home Improvement has them on sale for only $3.98 USD per bag.

Really only needed one bucket and there was probably an empty one sitting around the other dude’s house somewhere
I should have watched the whole video before buying 5000 bags 😂
Why this guy got werewolf fangs?
Did he keep saying moment of tooth?? 😂😂
Pauly the vampire gold prospector
Can you guys link that final stage sloosh with the funky pockets you use? Very cool.
its 4am and watching Chewbacca trying to get gold out of already refined sand.
All their gold is in their lumber area. Just scan the prices.
Man, I wish yall would come to my sand dredging operation here in South Carolina!!!
About fifty years ago I was in the vicinity of Fairbanks after a particularly snowy winter. Seeing the gold in the sand alongside every stream or river was exciting, although the amount was trifling. Easy to understand people getting gold fever. Upstream of where I currently live, on the San Joaquin River in central California, they built a big dam in the 1940's and gathered the gold, which paid the cost of mining all the gravel.
I run a dredge and often wonder about weather we have any in our sand. If there’s any at all, it’d probably be in the dewater wheel housing
Coulda put buckets under the spot where it pours it on the ground
