  • The Dustdevils find an old gold processing plant and plan to process the ground around the site to recover any gold that was lost during the decades the mill was in operation. But will the fine gold they find be enough for the crew to hit their season target?

    You're so intelligent for thinking outside the box and finding that waste from a variety of sources that others wouldn't have ever thought of. Sign of a real entrapaneur .

      Maybe that's because of the lack of water? They get rid of most of the fine dirt with the help of the wind, leaving only little pebbles and bigger dirt chunks in the pan, needing less water to wash it. Well, that's my hypothesis at least, 'casuse I don't know shit about this! XD

      if any gold washed to the end part it would be very fine, if they try to pan them it would still have 99% quartz. unless they melt that they still would not know if there was gold

    • @Lucas_Tulic
      @Lucas_Tulic 3 роки тому

      I heard in one of these videos that the gold is worth more if you melt it into a bar, 'cause the process gets rid of a lot of impurities, so the final result is a more refined gold, with a better selling plice.

    @ spot. assuming its 22karat+
    but i dont think they can get spot, unless they pour single ounces and sell them on ebay. otherwise they are gonna lose around 3% all around....so definitely not reaching 180k for at least a few years. lol.
    those dore bars need further refining too. i didnt even see any flux in the pour. (could have been edited)
    kinda weird. show the whole process next time.
