Brother's Gold Mining & Prospecting
Australia
Приєднався 27 бер 2014
I wish to share the ups and downs of getting Gold out of a very small Gold Lease, just off the Palmer River in far north Queensland Australia.
With a few Gopro's and a Drone thingy, I will try to make a fun show of it all this season!? 2016.
I'm having a go at it anyway, and any positive support would help a lot!
Please give a Like!
Rob.
PS, There will be some (RCnAbout) vids, just because I love em.

End of mining season 22
The last run off 22, days are hot, water is low, out there alone I dig then hall 12 truck loads to run a bulk sample of next seasons creek. Washplant broke at about 11pm that night, about 7 loads worth run. 30.4g detected out of dirt while digging, (scrape detect while loading truck) Had 20grams in the box. Good dirt! Will show the break down in next vid! Fun and games with equipment all the time, the gold is not the problem here at least.
My father and business partner passed away a few months later, life has changed for me, I am needed elsewhere! The mines are on the market for sale. Ps, you will want good equipment and a few bucks, good work ethic and love the bush n wildlife to live the dream, it’s here, you just got to dig it up. Down side is that this freedom needs a permit. The add is on gumtree and Facebook.

Small scale Gold, Washplant upgrade & mining
Переглядів 24 тис.3 роки тому
Continued from last vid of Doing the Freddy, upgrading our washplant to get better results and yardage, we have gone from 12 yards an hour to over 25 yards per hour!! Very happy, a pre wash hopper would only improve it more! A few more little things to do, but no hassle. Catching the super fine Gold is great but a bugger to clean up! lol. Nice few grams from the old paydirt & tailing's we ran t...
Doing the Freddy, upgrading the Gold washplant
Переглядів 8 тис.3 роки тому
Freddy Dodge couldn't make it here, so we had to do the work! lol, I did try to get em over! Anyway its was time to get the job done. I think, this mod should see at least a 30-40% increase in dirt washed and gold recovered!? Tests will tell soon enough. Bigger motor and new guide wheel set up should help heaps!. New hopper system or a pre-wash type deal is whats needed to maximize production. ...

Small Scale Gold, The Wee Robbinson Gold shaker trailer
Переглядів 1,9 тис.4 роки тому
Its the very first test run of a good mate's small scale shaker trailer. I think it would be an awesome little test plant or small bulk sampler unit. Capable of up to 5 tonne per hour, easy set up and pack up, cheep to run, small generator and a 2 inch fire fighter pump. Few more mods & tests first. Watch for more on this little unit very soon! Heaps on the go,stay tuned. Just sharing the fun w...
Try Hard. Crushing old Gold mine waste ore.
Переглядів 2 тис.4 роки тому
The old timers reef mined an area on the mine, they have 2 big waste piles next to the shafts and a large amount of the surface part of the reef went out as waste. 8-10 tonne at a good estimate. So a random sample of the quartz from said waste pile was gathered to weigh up to a bit over the 100kg mark Crushed, sluiced, panned n weighed in a few hours. Lets say 8grams per tonne, and say I have 1...

Small Scale Gold, New things & some Things
Hello! We would like to Buy your UA-cam channel. Possible? Any price is ok. Thanks
Heh, i have the same ecr58 😊
We both have steel tracks that are rare.
Old video and still going strong.
What’s the price please
This is a good setup. Point your sprayers down a little rather than directly to the side

Hey mate, looking at coming out your way in later July, will you lads be out working the claim late July early August? Heading up from Vic. Any chance could swing past to see how it all works and maybe get some advice on claims etc? Also if you need any parts/supplys bought up from down South that could get thrown on the back of the ute just let us know.
Sorry for late reply, got locked out of the tube? Yea we’ll be out mining unless the leases are sold by then? Got a few coming to have a look this season. Even so will still be mining or prospecting on the other leases anyway so stay in touch mate!
🎉
Well at least you drink VB, my favourite. How long did it take you get that much gold? I'm interested in buying the lease on a vendor financed agreement.
Those gravels should have a good bit in there.
It's an iron bark tree! 😂😂😂
Thanks for sharing mate. Saw the setup on the way through to the old boys ML last week to close up shop. Good work mate. I’ll drop in for a brew next season.
No hassle mate will be in there doing the do for sure next season, see ya then.
Thats awesome
Kick ass
Nice work
So if I have a bunch of gold dust and I pan it out, can I start the process from there? It looks like I will have to do some more work, I know nothing about this, but I have a bunch right now.
Hows it going mate ? Any craic.mine looking good
It’s going mate, all good, new mines to play on, 4 now so selling 2 of em, keep the 2 closer to home. How you guys..? Email me bro

Awesome setup. Great part of the world.
Nice mate
Sorry for your loss! Stay strong mate and good luck in the future 🙏
Thank you
Goodjob
So when do we get to see more videos
When I get new laptop and cameras, posting a few short ones from last year. Best I got for now
I worked on Bonny Glen in the eighties and there was good ground around there so I can only assume plenty still have good pay
Awesome, plenty good pockets, just getting harder to find those bigger deposits. We’re still working a lease on Mateland downs as well, so yea, there is enough around for the keen hard working miner. Thanks Harold.
Keep the videos coming. Love em. Hows the grass starting to. Lay down yet?
Thanks mate, the grass is 6ft here, next few weeks should see the start then the fires will be close behind.
Looks awesome boys, can't wait to see you run it through your trommel.
Thanks for the video and thanks for the chat today 👍
On the gold again. I got the fever mate.
looks nice there!
Nice looking material Rob. Thanks for sharing what's happening. 👍
Just a few short ones till get my software and edit stuff working again, thanks mate
Had you turned up all the way and couldn't hear a thing. Great pictures tho.
Sorry mate, I’ll see what I can do to make it better.? Thanks for watching.
Could not sign in for a week.??? Sorry for late reply’s guys.
Nice gear mate, hope it pays you back 100 fold! OH&S approved construction I see 😂
Thanks man, the OH&S bloke went home wth fat lip and a black eye, but he signed off on the works plan just before he left! Hehehe….. lol thanks mate
Did you guys end up getting the vibrators sorted on the Wilkinson plant ?
Gday mate, after the Jenny blue up, sold it on, got this one instead, fun will start when we hook it ya to a motor and see what happens? Should be good, going electric, but still s but of fabricating to do! I almost like making mining equipment mor than I do using it! Almost… thanks Mathew, might be talking to you again soon mate? lol. If you ever up this way? Pop in and have some fun with us!
Can't wait to see this in action
Haha yeahhhh get it boys! Can't wait to see the beast in operation 🤘 earning them beers for sure
It's looking good Brother. 👍
Thanks mate
nice one bro
Thanks mate
Big year hopefully 🤞
Next few years I hope mate! Thanks
EPIC!!!! ... can't wait to see more boys.
Good job
Lookin' good, should be able to handle what ever your putting in it. Can't wait to see it finished and working. Bloody mines department won't let us renew the U/G lease down here in Vic, since I got crook a few years ago and have not been able to do much there, they've closed us down. Bloody greenies & DPI have put a stop on alluvial lease as there too many trees, which they gave us the go a head 10 years ago, looks like we'll have to give that one up as well. Gotta love Victoria government, first the timber industry now the mining. Cheers ⛏️🍺
Nice, that's a beast, and I reckon that in the near future we will see it in action👍🤠
Yea mate, should see it running in the next few months. Thanks
Haha!!! You ran from that little snake just like would have!! Hehe
Hey friend, I ran across your channel last night and live your operation! I hope you make tons and get to expand it huge!! I was watching you dump the dirt in and had a idea. After watching a few more of your videos I saw that you have the skills to make it happen so of course it was all I could think about last night and just wanted to drop you a comment. 😂 I’m a engineer and been in industrial maintenance my entire life so I get thoughts and they stick with me lol If you had a little narrow conveyor, heavy duty of course, going from that dirt mound to the machine and a speed control on it then it would keep your pay dirt feeding that machine continuously once you got the speed set good. More dirt ran means more gold found. Then all you would have to do is drop the dirt on top of the end of the conveyor and it would auto feed it. Just a thought friend. I have a small conveyor for my little hobby but my machine is not as big as yours. It works great for me, especially when I’m by myself and my wife is not there. Anyway, good luck this season!! I hope you find lots!! 🙃
Sorry for late reply mate, we just so happen to be working on getting one for the future! Not cheep though for what’s in em, but would pay for itself in no time. Just working our way up the ladder one peace at a time, it all just started with a gold pan 8 years ago,! Getting there is half the fun. Thanks mate, and I wish you some good luck too bro. Rob
