Old Patch STILL PRODUCING GOLD!
Вставка
- Опубліковано 29 вер 2024
- After a long road trip I drop into a few areas on the hunt for gold, having no luck I head to an old faithful, this area has produced gold for years and on this day it was no different, I was able to walk straight onto gold.

Yes old Crouch would love it there..
Well done 👍.
Cheers Famo59👍🍻⛏️
I'd imagine he has surfed a few Rip Curl Classics there back in the day, legendary place for legend surfer. Cheers Tony 👍

Crouch territory for sure Crouch is a great guy 👍👍👍👍 another cracking episode with lots of lead and Gold ❤
Crouch would have graced those shores many a time and I'm sure taken away the odd title. Cheers Andrew, Thanks for watching.
Nice Pete,on the gold buddy,your hunch about the old patch payed off that day,sweet.Thanks Pete,cool video man.
Thanks Morgan, it's great to have these old patch areas on the back burner, they have saved the day more than once. Cheers mate 👍
I think that lead shot did you a favour, you might not have found that gold without it, yep! That larger piece looked like Caromel Koala to me. A bit of quartz with a golden cherry on top! Nice! Not to bad on the weigh-in guesses either! Cheers!
I think the lead might have been the secondary target and popped out first, anyway I was happy to have found the gold. It's funny the shapes of gold, everyone can see something different that's for sure. If you find enough small ones it makes it easier to guess, I need more big ones to guess. Cheers mate
Thanks for the shout out Pete. Sorry we disappeared from the footy game. The kids had been with me all day and were hounding me for dinner!
Great information about finding a patch. Its good to keep one on the back burner for scratching the gold fever itch. 0.33 it a nice bit of scratch.
Cheers and thanks for sharing your adventures Pete 🌄
Family first mate, have to keep the kids happy, we'll catch up soon enough, thanks for stopping in, we didn't do the best, but away games are more difficult. Catch ya soon mate. Cheers
Well done Pete, ive been getting gold and shot in the same holes a few times in the last couple of weeks, heres hoping that their not interbreeding.
Sshhhh, dont give up all your trade secrets 😁, told a mate to do the same, (work the hill).
He ended up with 3.4 in three bits and a species, while i got a few .1 ers off the holes.
Cheers Craig ⛏️
Thanks Craig, sounds like you've been doing well. The sides of hills is good advice, lucky there's heaps of them out there. Cheers mate
Thanks for sharing another great adventure Pete. Nice few hours detecting session . Keep up the great work and see you on the next one. Cheers mate. 👌👌👌👌👍👍👍👍🤜🤛
Thanks mate, it was good to get out for a couple of hours on the way back and a bonus to get a few. Cheers mate 👍
We’ll done Pete some nice little bits and it’s good to see you have the same passion for led shot as me 😂😂😂😂
It's nice to get the gold, but that lead shot is a pain in the ass, all a part of it I guess. Cheers mate 👍
Good video and cute gold ..must be freezing out there ...
Thanks mate, pretty cold at the moment, but I'm in Cairns for a week, so all good now. Cheers mate
Great swing 👏 3 is better than none. Great channel from meteorite mac channel Derbyshire.....England
Cheers Colin, I'll take what I can find. 👍
@@PetesGoldAdventures great 👍 channel
We all do the same thing don't we lol, try new areas not getting the vibe and head back to old patches. It usually pays off👌. Cheers mate.
I've had old areas save the day plenty of times, you can never get them all and these are the days your happy to have left some behind. Cheers mate 👍
Always important to check the hole, amazing how many pieces are found with lead shot. Hope the footy is going ok
I've found several two for one deals in the same hole, one had 17 in it, so that was a good day. The footy was a tough day in the office, but you get that on the away trips. Cheers Guy
Thanks for sharing well done stay safe
Cheers mate, thanks for watching. 👍
Hello Pete, I enjoy your video's very much, you seem like you take it as it comes.
You don't seem too annoyed when it's lead, and excited when it's gold.
I'm new to prospecting and enjoy just getting out there.
Good luck in the future.
Regards Shayne.
Thanks Shayne, appreciate it. I do get frustrated with the lead shot, but as long as there's gold about it makes it a lot more bearable, and finding gold in any size is great, I'll take it. Good luck and I hope you are or going to get on the gold soon. Cheers Pete
Thanks Pete, for the tips, we'd been given further pointers to where folk from the gold-rush days wandered routinely, who would have worked a few feet from the next digger, but then went up to escape to their tent or dug-out up the hillside, to the fresh water, to the provisions tent store, butcher's, tailor, grog tent, "entertainment"... bridle trails, holloways between giant slag or mullock heaps, ridge or creekline walkways, and for relics in towns, from Luke, Dig It Detecting, grassy laneways, particularly if they lead from a big worksite (bigger mine entrance) to the nearest pub! Bluestone laneways harder to dig if you get a signal, item wedges vertically in a crack. Warren Wild Colonial Boy used a pinpointer in a flagstoned interior setting, wish they had a headphones jack or silent pulse so you don't get sprung! lol Cheers, Gabi.
Nice Gabi, you really like your comments and there much appreciated. Any advice you can pick up a long way is valuable, you put it all together and apply what you can to your situation and if any of it pays off it might just result in something special. Cheers mate
Good effort, i dont know how many times i see videos and think that place looks familiar, I think most of the bush looks the same.... no wonder people get lost in it! cheers Mate
Thanks Neil, the bush does look very similar, which is good, helps me keep my spots a secret, well I can only hope. Cheers mate
A nice day out and some gold to take home.u can call that small area a patch cheers Glenno.
It certainly was Glenno, that area has given me a lot of gold over the years, it's a great "go too" place if you need some gold. Cheers mate
Cheers Pete cool vid the look on your face when that lead shot came out was priceless but you got rewarded with the double check 👍🏻
Thanks Chris, those lead shot really know how to kick you in the nether region, but this time I was lucky enough to have a golden surprise waiting for me. Cheers mate 👍
Well done Pete. Though it was bad, I did love your response to the deep lead in the great ground 🤣🤣. We all do that. How did the bloody thing, it has no right 🤣🤣. Glad you got onto some. Good luck on the next outing mate 😁👍👍
Thanks Andrew, it is truly amazing where you find lead shot, and in some area's it just shouldn't be, like perfect gold ground, but it's all a part of the chase I guess. Cheers mate 👍
Great effort Pete. I could hardly “bear” it 😂😂
Nice little result.
Cheers, thanks Daza. 👍
Cheers, thanks Daza. 👍
Hahaha old bells beach yes
Loved it surfed it at 8-10ft on my 9’ malibu after the Australian titles in Victoria harbour
Bloody cold it was too
Geez that second one I too said it’s gold then it was lead wtf
But was still there I find that the lead is louder and gold softer in sound
But the bigger ones like half gram are loud so it’s difficult ay
As they say digem all lol
Nice work and thanks for the sneaky shout out very tricky lol lol
Cowabunga dude lol

We didn't hit the beach, just played footy at Jan Juc, camped the night and headed back to Central Vic. It was pretty cold, but in Cairns now for a week, so much warmer, then unfortunately back to the cold weather. Cheers mate 👍
@@PetesGoldAdventures I built two bottle shops in Cairns
One opposite the Casino and one next to the girlie bar next street back lol
Enjoy
@@thesurfingprospector6345 Where out at Trinity Beach, nice spot, good pubs 🍻
Good on you Pete. I enjoy your weekly video. Keep up the great work.
Thanks mate, I'm glad you enjoy the video, although I'm not sure how I'll go this week mate I'm up in FNQ so I'm not sure what will go out next week. Cheers mate
Well done Pete, footy & gold sounds like a great weekend to me 👍
Thanks Allan, it was good to be able to squeeze in both, otherwise I would've not been out for a couple of weeks as I'm up in Cairns for a week at the moment, escaping the cold. Cheers mate 👍
Well done Pete, still producing, keep em coming
Thanks Sam, the old spots that keep giving are great. Everyone should have one. Cheers mate 👍
Perfect ground, mate.
It's been a great piece of ground over the years. Cheers mate
3 bits is better than none. Cheers Andy
I'll take anything I can get my hands on mate, all gold is good. Cheers mate 👍
I could hear the frustration in your voice when that bird shot came out but it worked out well in the end
They can be frustrating, there's so many lead shot out there, but as long as there's gold, I'll manage. Cheers mate
@@PetesGoldAdventures hey, at least you're doing your part to clean up Australia.
Well done Pete very nice 👍
Thanks mate, it was a great save heading there for the last couple of hours. Cheers mate👍
Great work
Cheers Matt, thanks for watching.
@@PetesGoldAdventures you give me inspiration to go swing my 6000
Get into it mate, plenty of gold out there for the 6000. 👍
