      I am on the other side of the world, I never got to meet him, I still choke up when I realize he is gone now. I know he is running back and forth along the creek that Rainbow bridge spans, watching Chris and waiting for him.

    The adventures of Prospecting for Gold always makes me 😁 !
    I've subscribed to 25+ channels with yours as my most viewed ! I really enjoy watching all the different approches to prospecting. Unlike some that are "Slow Death" with my finger itching to punch the smash button. Dig, shake, Swirl and Repeat isn't all there is to finding Gold. You impart Tips and knowledge that are helpful an can easily grasp. Your choice of music, the slow motion, fast forward shots and "Ozzy Humor" are most appreciated as well. I've been to Australia twice before, wish I could afford one more trip an join the hunt. Keep up the great work, "I'll be watchin' " ! 😁😉😎

    Thank you Chris another informative blog, I prospect around Bendigo and most time water for panning is not available on site so taking pay dirt home it's the best way to see how rich or poor the gully might be, would love your flowing creeks over here, Cheers, Mate.

    • @workingfortheirfuture
      @workingfortheirfuture 3 роки тому

      I do a lot of sampling away from water... 300-500 m from any source- I’ve leaned to carry a 2 litre water bottle and really get good with reusing it. My friend laughs that I try to settle cons in murky water, but it works for me - 2 litres will get you about 4 decent sample pans of a kilo of material in a pan...
      If you think it’s in there, keep cons in a sock in the same water in a freezer bag and move along... pull out the sock, keep the water for the next pan.

  • @maxcloutier5285
    @maxcloutier5285 3 роки тому

    Chris, I have begun to find gold but... yesterday, I found only 53 dust and one picker.
    0,08 gram alltogether. So as you say, not as expected.
    I calculated that with my first harvest year, it will take 38 years before I get my ounce, lol.
    AND that I will reach one ton of lead before the once of gold.
    To add to this result, you are lucky that your gold is 98% pure. Mine is often bicolor which I suspect is a mix of Gold and Silver. 90% to 50% gold content depending of the sites.
    Main thing is I have fun and this is after looking at your videos.
