Its refreshing to see a full production, meMiner, Cobalt silver, metaldetecting, insulator finding, Daisy birding, rock cleaning, rock cutting, rock smashing, silver revealing, with a bit of cobalt lol, awesome video again. Good stuff, Grieg 👍
You know i was hoping you would show a bit of the mine and it has that spooky vibe and when you did that with the eyes you got a little jump out of me i have to admit. maybe a slight cortisol dump. lol
Noice haul considering you were not expecting any real finds, just goes to show what I keep telling bleepers, you sweep in arcs that touch one end giving a z pattern and you miss almost as much as you sweep, so there will be finds for years , unless meminer and daisy have been there first I didn't know my eyes were so shiny, no one ever caught me before.
It is a bit complicated. With the NOX, smaller targets (especially small pieces of leaf silver) have lower numbers. With metals, iron and cobalt are low. Silver mid range and nickel is high. Larger targets are generally high (ish). Mix of metals (nothing is pure) or nearby mineralization or junk change the numbers too.
I think someone before you had interest in that rock and gave up on it because it was so big. I was fooled by the big rock too. I thought for sure it had silver. Oh well.
I know this has nothing to do with this video whatsoever but I got small garnets that I banged out of the mica schist and I has a small amount of s*** on it I got a rock tumbler I don't know what stage to use without ruining the shape because they look hexagon I just want to clean the junk off of them it's not much but a little bit of
Kinda figured so, most of us are like that. That's a score I've never gotten hold of any cobalt ore just wanted to check it out. Appreciate your vids, always enjoy them.
I have a million dollar question for ya. The reason why it's a million dollar question is because I have not found any one that can tell me what kind of rock I have. Not even a geology professor at a college can tell me what it is. I live in Pennsylvania across lake Erie from Canada. I found this rock while metal detecting. It had a lot of calcite on it and I removed it with apple cider vinegar. I was left with this amazing cool kind of rock that has this silver metal in it. It's not in veins and it doesn't look like silver ore does. It has a doll look to it until you catch it and then it's a shiny silver looking. This is not a hard rock like silver ore. This is the only time I've ever seen a rock like this. The way the silver looking metal is in this rock is a lot like gold does but not into a vein form. The college geology professor said he's never seen anything like it and that we don't have this kind of rock here in Pennsylvania. He thinks that it might have came from Canada by way of glacier. For the size of this rock ( about a golf ball size ) it weighs 70.23 grams. The silver metal is hard. Do you have any clue what I have or might have? If need be, I can send pics. It comes up on the metal detector in the gold range and not silver range. I've watched many of your videos hoping to see a rock like this but nothing yet. Oh and this rock doesn't have a smooth side anywhere.
Really can't tell unless u do some testing I would say. I'm close to you geologically speaking, and we have things scattered about that aren't native to the area. When the glaciers came down they deposited a lot of material scoured from Canada's surface. If your ever up by superior you'll see idk 40+ types of stone not native to the area. Canadian shield accounts for a lot of it in the great lakes. There are a lot of metallic looking minerals, and ore. The dull Grey ones I can think of right this second you may be finding would be things like lead ore (antimony) nickel, galena, chalcopyrite, hematite ect. There's a lot of things it could be. If you know how to come to specific gravity n hardness, would make identifying a little easier.
@@SassSafras I can rule some of them that you mentioned out. I know most of them. You're right about lake superior. I follow flower gold wizard and he goes there for the beach gold and yooperlites and other stones. Thanks for the help. The rock itself, the parts that are not a metal look like bone or tooth with a shiny glaze.
@@meMiner I ruled them out. I've been all over the internet trying to find something like it. The rock itself, the parts that are not of metal, look like bone or tooth with a shiny glaze.
All those pieces turned out fantastic !!!!!! Sweet
😅 I'm not going to lie the eye's thing made me jump.
LOL
Stop doing that Grieg! I’m old! 🫀😂

Only thing missing was a steak dinner. ;-)
@@meMiner hahah yep!
Yes for sure, keep them coming 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 And you got me with the eye balls too😂😂😂😂👀
Those rock slices will make lovely cabs with the silver through it 👍👍
Well my friend another fantastic adventure took me 2 days life lol beautiful area and awesome finds specially when cut. Wow to me impressive thank you
Glad you enjoyed it
Loved seeing the silver ore after it was cut. Beautiful. Massive nuggets! Wow.
You know i was hoping you would show a bit of the mine and it has that spooky vibe and when you did that with the eyes you got a little jump out of me i have to admit. maybe a slight cortisol dump. lol
It looks like you did pretty good and a few nuggets to boot. Woof to the pup. I hope the fires and smoke stay away. Be safe.
Thanks 👍
Thank you, and good luck to you. Enjoy your 🪨 rocks...
Really nice specimens.
amazing sir. good job
Thank you! Cheers!
Scared me with those eyes you edited in the mine shaft! Had the volume up too high... Hahaha!
lol
Good cutts!
Really cool video!
Thanks!
Very Nice....
Awesome!
😎 Cool video 📹 😊
You’re funny. Jumped in my chair. Lol

Nice
Fun!
Very neat adventure, I take it the silver nuggets or mostly silver show a higher number on your metal detector?

I agree and it sat there beside his hole for a while. Nobody else took it because it was hidden in the forest.
Does silver pan like gold? Your saw water well must be loaded with silver powder. Also the water you tumble rocks with.
It isn't as heavy as gold, but can be panned.
Well You Have To Take The Dog's For a Walk Just As Well Get Some Rock's
right?

I heard running with aquarium gravel works but I haven't tried.
Great vid greig! U have any of that cobalt for sale? Thanks!
Sass safrass❤
I don't sell. I collect for fun
Kinda figured so, most of us are like that. That's a score I've never gotten hold of any cobalt ore just wanted to check it out. Appreciate your vids, always enjoy them.
@@SassSafras I’m from the cobalt area and would ship you cobalt and nickel ore if you were interested
People called me a fool for testing potential ore with and pinpointer at an old mine site :D who's the fool now hehe
I especially like checking my hole and between big rocks with a pinpointer, where a detector's coil won't fit.

Could also be molybdenum or zinc.
