Your happys are contagious. I love snow and gold!
A choo, now you haves the haPPies
Fun video ! Like the gold too !! Can't imagine is snows down your way. Burr !! I'll box up some desert heat and send it your way. Lol !
GRIZZ WAS HAVING A BLAST IN THE SNOW. LOVE THE GOLD IN THE ROCK.
He was so happy
HAVE FUN WITH LIFE AND REAP ALL THE REWARDS.Fun in the goldfeilds for Griz and friends.
Not long enough Chris, needed a lot more. Love your SDC and your hi-banker, mainly because we're not allowed them (hi-bankers), here in Qld.
Grizz wasn't impressed with his snowball at all and spat it before it could melt, making it a Grizz spitball :)
Go the Mighty
Minelab SDC 2300
I definitely know the power of the detector..
Eureka Yeee Haaa..
Cheers Tony.👍🤓🍺⛏

I'd be keen to pick your brains about it man
Vo-Gus Prospecting
Any time..
You can get me phone 📱 Number From Neil Colston..
Cheers
Your new detector is working great! Nice gold. Thanks Chris.
Another great video. The SDC is a great detector for backpacking into remote places. Make sure you get a Lucky Knuckle Protector and also throw the Minelab batteries in the bin and get a set of rechargeable batteries that have a larger positive terminal to stop it restarting every time you bump it. Gets annoying real fast....
I figured the battery thing out today lol
I take it you don't get much snow there.. LOL. Glad ya had a good time on it man. 1st day with the sdc eh? I've just decided - am selling my ATPro kit and will get the SDC over the Canadian winter months. Great vid overall man.
What a nice speci and loved watching the site manager play in the snow looks like you had fun
Nice work Chris, you're going to love Pulse Induction!
Having battery issues. Only got 5 hours from a set
@@VoGusProspecting yeah, I'm surprised minelab hasn't updated the battery in the sdc, they still sell enough of them to warrant the update. Still, way lighter than my 4500, even with an extra set of batteries in tow.
When we are hitting 40C on the heat index you and my little brown buddy are playing in the snow! Looked like fun...
Is it a airplane . Is it a rocket . It is captain snowbeard . Nice video chris . Always fun to watch
Fruit Boxes ? Looked more like nut job boxes to me >>LOL.. great vid Chris and i love your SDC.
Nice one Chris. Can't wait for some cool weather here in Idaho...
Love winter man
hey brother fantastic video and very funny Congratulations greetings from the warm Dominican Republic
Tank you! its a great machine
I would be sure to check all your tailings in that area. There are areas here in U.S. along the Appalachian mountains where the gold ends up with layer of something black on it that you need a brush to get it off to see the gold underneath.
Great first find with the new equipment... Now you know to work that pit a little better
The snow run was a hoot lol .
Nice hard rock gold! How crazy has this cold weather been - Its not often we get snow in the Capital!!!
Griz loved it
Great preview Chris 👍 im looking forward to seeing you find some big nuggets with that SDC .keep up the good work mate you are doing great 👍✌️⛏️🇦🇺
Man id be happy with anything over half a gram
Hey that's awesome, I recently got myself an SDC and found a 1g nugget on my 2nd outing so I know the feeling of elation you would have been going through! So far I've found 7 little nuggies in total, 3.3g in total and I haven't even gone to a proper gold field yet just a couple creeks that I know has some chunky stuff though mostly flogged... so the SDC was a great choice to make mate. Hopefully the first of many finds!
Also just a suggestion... one of the best investments I made on top of my SDC was to get the SP01 (by SteelPhase) booster/filter, along with the Audio Adapter Lead and a good set of head phones (if you don't have one already as the stock headphones are pretty crap). With the SP01 I can get it so there is virtually no background noise at all, only audio I get is a signal. Have picked up multiple tiny tiny steel shots like this which I know I would have struggled to hear had it not been for this audio setup!
That was crazy fast. Glad you had lots of fun. Keep doing what you are doing and have a great and blessed day.
I go fast
@@VoGusProspecting that looks like a lot of fun.
We enjoyed your video, as much as you do!!! Great video, great people, great place! P.S. Trying a sluice on ice would be epic!!! 😁
No stopping you now mate, all the tools are coverd.
The sdc is a great machine perfect machine for hammered areas because it picks up nuggets below 0.1 grams
I found a 0.06 a few days ago
What a great way to start your video, having fun on the sled :) Nice gold you found and oh so quickly, awesome !!
I couldnt believe i found gold, i kept looking at it to make sure it had not changed
Nice speci man!! What a result.👍😁
Thanks man, was stoked to find it
WOW !
Nice!
Thanks for sharing the adventures. Grats on the gold.
Cheers man
Congratulation mate nice find with the new SDC2300
Thanks man, i was surprised to score day 1
More snow probably coming too. Another arctic low pushing up through the bight.
It got bloody cold today
Thats the one I was talking about I'd say.. lol. Don't envy you in that regard mate. :)
19.5 deg here at 7.20 pm. Follow the sun.. lol
More snow Sunday probably. Down there that is .Absolutely beautiful on the Central Queensland Gemfields.
They look so nice when sticking out of a quartz rock with gold growing like moss in various spots.
It took me ages to figure out if it was gold
Nice Gold there! Don't forget to watch my latest video. Pauly and I did a Blindfolded Gold Panning Challenge..you might want to see who we chose as the next contestant.
Ive watched, now i have to find someone to film
Looks like you all had a great day in the snow. I also have a SDC 2300 it’s deadly on shotgun pellets 🤔🤣👍🇦🇺. Ps you will definitely enjoy the SDC.🍻
That is really cool to see reef gold you say.
Great video Chris keep it up
If I'm not mistaken you can clean that rock nugget up with some sulphuric acid! It will leave only the gold.
Awesome take!
Im keeping it in the rock because its cooler like that. Vinager also works
That is a really nice specimen well done
Awesome fine. thanks for sharing .
Old mines r sweet places aye relics and missed nuggets n history as they left it luv em great vid mate cheers
I miss the snow.... Really nice video my friend! You may not be suited for band life with AC/DC but you’re one heckofa gold miner.......
The Wizard Team
Haha, best compliment I've got all week.
Opportunity knocks. You guys know so much more getting out the mine detector 👍 Thanks
Well done with the SDC
Thanks bro!
Great video Chris, you must be up in the mountains for that much snow. All the best Cheers from Canada!
I was up a big hill called Big Hill
Nice little spot you found. Aren’t the SDC 2300 going up in price and another model being discontinued? I’ve probably got it around the wrong way. Every time I go out I’m going to have AC⚡️DC stuck in my head now. 🤘
You got it right, the SDC is going to be a few hundred more and they're discontinuing the GPX 4500s. Makes me happy I just recently bought myself an SDC (was tossing up between that and 4500)... already found 7 little nuggets totaling 3.3g and I'm up in far north QLD, didn't even look in any of the proper gold fields yet. :D
You always find the coolest species duuude!
Great work mate 👊🏻🤠👍🏻
Beautiful gold specimen! cant wait to see the full episode! cheers Chris
Cant wait to go back!
Wow, cool , enjoyed the vid , do some detecting vids with the new machine , from the grizzly fan ⛏👍🐶
I will be man, got one filmed, just have to edit it
Cool gold and cool sledging🤗👍
Thanks bro!
Did you notice that the end of that tree branch looked like a arm and hand reaching for the gold in the box. lol
Sneaky tree
Well done my friend keep up with nice finds sir
thank you
Cant wait Chris!
how cold has it been the last few days with the bloody winds too! great to see you having some time with the gang
Looks cold!,!
Love the snow sesh mate looked fun as!!! Great find today too
Ive never done a box slide before so it was awesome
Still not enough snow to compare to canada snow lol we can get 3ft in a day. My boxer is like grizzly in snow too super excited!
Cant please the snow dwellers lol. Grizzly was a goof ball in the powder
You should get Minelab to sponsor a trip to B.C. -- hook you and the B.C. UA-camr guys up with some gear, go on some grand detecting adventure (with plenty of product placement). :-)
glad to see you having fun!
hmm,but isn’t finding any gold,make it good gold?!
👍
Any gold is good gold because the real value is in the adventure
Good lesson
Your going to love the SDC 2300, I am going to bring mine up to Bright on Friday and give it a go.
Hope you had some luck
Hey Chris,
Love your work brother. Hope to see you out on the fields one day. I'm just getting started in this hobby. Hope we can team up one day. Have a great weekend.
Ibi

Me too!
Good stuff the detector is already started to pay for itself.... on the gold
Awesome specimen :) & pickers, nice find on the mine :)
Looks interesting 😀👍
Fantastic
Thanks
Cool. Goo buy.
Hope you beat Minelabs price hike.
And they will be going up in price again in a couple months.
Best portable Gold Machine ever. And boy does it love species.
My tip. Get the cover and wrap the headphone cable through velcro so as not to tug on the headphone plug. A known weak point. Keep it at 2 no matter what anyone says and use headphones religiously.
Have fun mate. I know you will. 😁
Would you recommend this detector or gpx4500
Tezzasbigbuz 4500 👌
Personal choice is all it comes down to.
Both will do an amazing job, they are both high end detectors. Biggest thing you need to do is look at what you want to achieve with a machine.
SDC is a rugged, transportable, water/weather proof unit that EMI cancels like a boss, turn on and go unit. But lacks fine tuning and hardware options.
4500 way more choice in how the unit runs making it overall more versatile. But it's fiddly, costs more and isn't as good at EMI canceling or water proofing.
Pick what you want to do and choose the machine that suits.
That's why it's cold in Tassy all the cold air is coming from Vic
Good on ya mate! I love my SDC! awesome piece of kit
weapon of a machine
Congratulations chris on becoming an owner of the f@#$" awesome sdc! Nice choice bro, and you found gold on the first day may that be the first of many!
It's an absolute weapon
Hi mate, bit of advice please? Newbie here, ive bought the gold monster, and didnt realise not waterproof! What would you recommend? Thinking nox 800, or 3030? Thanks
I got An SDC sounds like you need to go clinic lol 😂😂
haha
Love your AC/DC song made me smile
Thabks man, not many people appreciate art
Nuggets!
Thanks Chris...love your videos and Griz too!
Thanks mate
Thanks for the video! Congrats on the awesome specimen.
thanks mate
That's still not snow. :+)
I know it was only a matter of time before the true luv story of the sdc would amurge .. goodo carryon pip pips 😁happy trails
I love it, but its a bloody awful balanced unit lol
Yeah sweet, nice score buddy, make sure you thoroughly detected the area next trip, there will be more.
Ill be planning a hike up there
A real detector.
What the reason for the selection sdc 2300 and why not the gpx4500. Is it for the water proof or something else. It great find you got on your first run. Its a great feeling. Russell
I like idiot machines, turn it on and go. No fiddly tuning or set up, wont mater if i drown it, can use it under power lines, in the rain, etc
Thanks for your response. I am going to look forward to see what you find. A few years ago i went to a farm with bush land. Walking with the owner, i was shown to be careful. There was stick fallen from trees. A small hole. But it was a long drop mine. Then one after another there was more. So from there on i have been careful. If i get a chance i go for another look around. Remember to keep it ground balanced. Ground balanced is not the ground but power ground and you use the ground up and down movement to set the zero point with the noise that comes from the ground to help set the op amps. I worked on strain gauge amps for a few years and made a silicone chip detector. Russell
The 4500 needs to be checked for case ground to circuit board ground. The coating on case can stop the grounding. You can get a filter to help electric transmitter lines filtering. Russell.
My perfect day! (Feeder)
Nice video
How would you compare it to Busted Knuckles gold monster? Man he finds tiny gold with that thing.
Two completely different machines. I'm making a video on this subject, but for now...
The SDC is a high end unit. It does not chatter like the GM, it can handle hotter ground, it punches deeper. But it's 4 times the cost of the GM and the GM will find smaller gold.
Cool man! Thanks for explaining! Look forward to the video.
Go the sdc such a great detector⚒👍🏻
wich nuggetty gully there are several named the same in the triangle
That's the point, it's not easy to find 😉
Fab 👍☺️
Wonder what happened to your gold monster 🤔🤔
Nothing i still use it
That's not that much snow.
For a place that hits 48c in summer and never sees snow it's a blizzard.
So how do you process gold ore like that?
You don't, it's worth more like this. If you did you just crush it.
@@VoGusProspecting way cool!
Nice man
I've never even owned a car worth as much as your metal detector.
Me either
@@VoGusProspecting Too funny.
i found it haha
