You did well with the 6000 Justin. Awesome way to travel too! Hopefully catch you in Meeka sometime. We're just waiting for the temperature to cool down so we can go back prospecting:)
You sir have the best prospecting rig ever. No flay tyres, bogged in mud, closed roads etc. Might cost a couple bucks to get there but Dam worth every cent. Sign me up if you need a side kick mate.
I can see it on your movements when you throw the small handful into the scoop and hear the clunk and then wave over the detector and hear crickets how disappointed you are. Your body language shows it all 🤣. I hear that clunk too and am like oh boy that’s a good one and then crickets. Keep ‘‘em coming
JB, all us prospecting are very jealous of your remote all terrain vehicle , you have the ultimate Transport Vehicle and not only that you get to do an Ariel survey of the area before you go down for the swing. Very much looking forward to future vids. Stay safe
Great way to prospect. Would have loved to get a chance doing that. Keep chasing your dreams. Greetings from a German prospector ( Australia 2019 - 2022 prospecting pilbara, Victoria and Queens land).
Hi from Greece. I love metal detecting. But here is not allowed. I have 2 metal detectors bought from USA. I have been to N.Y 2 times. I have family there. I served in SF in Greece for 18 months. I am metal detecting beaches here but.. late at night so no one see me. I just love gold detecting. I wish one day I can visit Australia and find gold. Subscribed. Only my best wishes
Remember a 14” DD is technically the same as a 7” Mono. So out of the 2 stock coils, the 11” Mono will punch deeper. The DD is for salt ground or bad EMI. Also, when the 6000 carry’s on, she loves noise cancel button. Brings her back into line.
It took me 3 days to watch this video but I enjoyed every minute of it! Especially the part where you just lying on the warm ground with your cook stove. And the whirly bird in the background! That thing can outrun any storm
I think this is the first time ive seen night prospecting, and after working at cue, mount Gibson ,Leonora and kal and super remote giddge gold mine for many years, it seems,...... its just obvious. I worked as a diesel fitter but always demanded permit night shift, and got it. not many knew how to repair cat scrapers, or wanted to,.... to be precise. still I should of tried a little prospecting back then. I would just buy pretty nuggets at the bar of the foundry hotel in kal. they tell me that's been gone for years now,...... well that is a real goldfields tragedy.
saw 57 degrees at the bottom of harbor lights open cut, at Leonora. only reason we knew was the air ends on the drills kept shutting down. worst thing about Leonora was its 200 kays to the foundry hotel.
People may scoff at night detecting yet the detector does not know the difference between night and day. I always wanted to detect at night. Unfortunately where I live someone would call the police.
Gee whizz i'm only half way through the video and thinking you are do lucky you have a job to go back to be cause if things don't pick up not only you but the pending lease owned? are gonna Be standing in a soup line
That was a great little prospect buddy
It’s so cool how patient and resilient you are finding those little bits of gold!
It's my therapy....self love. Xx
You did well with the 6000 Justin. Awesome way to travel too! Hopefully catch you in Meeka sometime. We're just waiting for the temperature to cool down so we can go back prospecting:)

Hey, the pilot seat is on the wrong side of the chopper! Lol
😅😅
Poor bugga, no corrugation up there. great vid JB. Do you see many wild dogs from up there?
Yeah mate, plenty of dogs.....we soon sort them out though.
I think this is the first time ive seen night prospecting,
and after working at cue, mount Gibson ,Leonora and kal and super remote giddge gold mine for many years, it seems,...... its just obvious.

Night time is a must if you want those super small signals. Good old days huh 👌
saw 57 degrees at the bottom of harbor lights open cut, at Leonora. only reason we knew was the air ends on the drills kept shutting down.
worst thing about Leonora was its 200 kays to the foundry hotel.
Like driving a skidder down the road 😂
Very nice did not get 10 but good enough congrats

Ot makes a world of difference as the ground is cooler. 👌
So you operate out of Carnarvon. I've done a bit out at Cobra Station
There's still a bit going on around Cobra too. 👍
Flash!
the pleasure of finding gold but the few grams you are finding is it worth the 1000s of $ TO GET THERE.
Mostly stopping in at prospects on my way to or from paid jobs.....it's a win, win. 👌 Unfortunately this year I began filming after my larger finds.
@@JBHELI well done, hope to a day I'll be in your situation, anyway you have a wonderful Christmas and all; the best for next year
Oh well, you'll cover some of your fuel costs. But shit m8, ya doin it a bit hard. No friggin cold beer ?!!! Jeeeez. 👍✌🇭🇲
😆😆 It's a travesty I know.
Are all those divot holes your flying over old mines?
Negative.....just claypans.
27:13 Valiant effort to escape, Eh!
😆

Negative...but I'd love to!!
@@JBHELI Tennant Creek when are you coming? Take you to an untapped area biggest nugg i have found 6.2oz

LOL, that's not a mountain, in Canada we call that a hill!
It's actually a Rock.....largest monolith in the WORLD. Not as much snow as in Canada though. 😆
Throw some midnight oil in your music,,
😆 I'll look into it.
