New Sub here and awesome video my friends! Im looking forward to an updated video on this Gold venture! 👍👍
Awesome!!! I knew yall had been excited to try out the new excavator and seems like you've got a nice spot to dig for a while.
Hey buddy! Yes this was just a quick sample we had finished the road and connected this area for the 4 wheelers. But I had a hunch there would be some pay dirt in this valley. There is creeks on both sides and both have chunky gold in them. So far it seems the material is low grade and not a lot. But the gold that’s there is chunky. Lots more to come. I can’t wait to get back up there.
I'm in! I will follow your journey of dredging the forgotten waterways of Northern Georgia🔥 Came over from Rookie Prospectors channel🤙
🌟New Subscriber🌟
Glad to have you! Lots of cool new stuff coming soon!
@@sluiceboyprospecting Looking forward to it🤙
Really great video boys!! I feel the excitement.
I’d love to see you highbank a good couple yards of that sweet crunchy conglomerate gravel 😊
Yes sir that’s the plan next time!! Can’t wait!
You need some help? I live in Alabama. I been prospecting all over Alabama. Not Georgia yet
Very cool you boys are doing it big time
Thanks Brian! We are trying to get something started. We were just working on the road here but this is the first sample of many to come. Next we have to build a small trommel!
Awesome man Great gold 👊👊👊
Thanks Mandy!
Wow 😮 Interesting video I really liked your video, keep it up!
Liked and subscribed aswell :D
Awesome thanks brother! We need the watch hours. We got demonetized by yt. So we appreciate you watching! I have a bunch of new footage from our last trip coming next week and week after!
Id definiley bring a trommel in for a yardage test.
I just made my second purchase through yall. First time ever panning and I can say with confidence I have gold fever 😂
Ohh buddy! You and me both! Thank you for choosing sluiceboy!
Bro I act like a road man to try fit in. I can’t afford these pay dirt bags at the moment and the thought of one day buying one motivates me to get a job. For free - your videos are a reminder that if I try my best I can be happy and make money at the same time
Yes sir! You absolutely can. Thank you.
I live in the soquee River in ga with bedrock everywhere I have some equipment and I’m almost done building my dredge. I don’t know a lot of people in the area that dredge or mine but would be awesome to team up on my property
Looks like wire gold chunks.
That's how to get it done fam. Just amazing work fam. Keep on having fun getting that au and living the dream. Gold Squad Out!!!
Thanks brother!
Let's say you found the very richest deep ground at 5 grams (5×$55=$275) of gold per "cubic yard". Then remember you would still have to:>> cut down trees, dig a very huge open pit hole, have 1000's of gallons of sluicing water, pay for the excavator backhoe expenses, and deal with a massive amount of waste material consisting of black dirt overburden & gravel tailings in order to make any big money. Then fill the hole back in for reclamation. >>Are you ready to do this in all respects.??
We would start small and yea we have a whole system that we would turn an acre into 4 pits with berms and use two for recalculation and one we would back fill into it. We are just sampling now. But yes you better believe it if we can find some gold worth digging we will figure it out!
@@sluiceboyprospecting ~Good!! I do not want to be negative but just positively giving you a realistic heads up help. I was on two large placer mining camps. Yes you are doing the right thing by sampling and keep sampling if you can use a 4" to 8" mini micro plastic sluice which is better than only a gold pan. Sampling with a plastic sluice you can clean it up much quicker with no matting. I have a mini 5" Angus MacKirk highbanker plastic sluice set up. Also look at the Kreeger plastic sluice (from California) for final clean-ups. You never know what you will get sampling the different horizontal layered zones. The hunt, solving the mystery, and "gathering learning knowledge" is enjoyably fun. "YES" fill in the old holes with tailings from new holes.
@@royjohnson465 absolutely! I didn’t take it as negative at all. This was just us finishing up the road we had to dig a hole and see what we could find. I will be running my samples through the monster hog. We did it in another area as well. It was mainly old tailings. I have a 13 ft highbanker with a 9 inch hopper. Thinking about trying to find a small used hopper feeder to feed the giant high banker. I have a few videos with us using it. Thanks for watching and chatting, are you subscribed?
@@sluiceboyprospecting ~So you have the older Monster Hog 'before' the Super Hog came out, what a high production gravel chewing beast!! Maybe with the backhoe excavator fill 5 gallon buckets with a hopper "funnel" feeder first, then manually dump the 5 gallon buckets into the Monster Hog. I have 7x plastic Angus MacKirk, Washplant sluices for high production but I have to put it together. You could use a Le Trap plastic sluice for clean-up. I do hope you get rich. Over and out!!
@@royjohnson465 Good god man. I bet we could talk for hours. 😂 I have never owned a letrap. It looks really easy and I’ve always been curious. I have a few really good freinds that swear by them. I like to bring my cons back and classify them and run the separate sizes through separate sluices. Then I take all the tailings and classify them +50 mesh and blue bowl them. But I could maybe start with a letrap first. I was especially interested with them when I was running my dredges because I saw people using them to clean dredge cons with the dredge engine on idol. That looked super easy and you don’t have to take the cons back to camp.
One big thing to keep in mind. Mines go broke when you don't have a good plan and mine management.
Other then that great job finding the pay !!!
Yes sir! This was us making the roads. We figured we do a dig in an area we suspected virgin gravels. Everything I do I plan way out and account for everything. I’m still building the plans and have lots of legal hoops Togo through before we can actually mine. We will start prospecting and running 10 yard samples in a few areas to get a better idea of what the grounds worth vrs our costs. Right now this is just a hobby and good material for my gold paydirt bags.
Sounds good and you earned a new sub
@@davevan1928 Awesome Dave thanks and glad to have you!
I just received my first paydirt bag ever and it was from you guys havnt panned it yet but it should be fun will put review up when done thank you so much keep up the good work
Hey awesome how cool is that! Glad to hear and thank you very much. What bag did you get and did you use our website?
@@sluiceboyprospecting the 1lb and no I didn't realize u had a website I used amazon I was planning on ordering another bag next Friday from the website i had just went to your website like ten minutes ago for the first time and I prefer to order stuff directly from the source especially if it is a small business and again thank you
@@wildernessunknown2641 yes please do! We have better prices on there. Because Amazon takes 15% fees. Plus a transaction fee of 1.00.
So we can do better on our website and we do alot of free gifts from return buyers on the website!
@@sluiceboyprospecting will do for shure thank you for everything you do
Hope you have a great Christmas enjoy your videos and paydirt
Thank you Pappy! Merry Christmas!
Interesting.
Thanks buddy! Yes more to come. We were just doing the roads and figured we do a few sample holes! Some chunky stuff but not much.
I need one of those lol enjoying watching you chasing the shiny enjoyed the video
Thanks for watching Donald!
That was an awesome trip and that excavator is amazing! We need to watch out for those trees though 😂
It really was! I can’t believe the road how good it came out! Now we just need to pave it with gold! 😂
Yellow brick road
Just wanted to come on and say thank you. My daughter bought a bag of your pay dirt as a gift for my birthday. Had lots of fun panning it and was decent gold (had a good smile in my pan). Came in a nice box with good instructions for beginner panners and the “thank you for supporting small businesses” card from Roy S. was a nice touch. There are lots of scam “pay dirt” bags out there and I’m glad she found you guys. Keep up the good work and god bless.
Awesome glad to hear! Don’t forget to subscribe!
