*disclaimer*
In this video and a few others I will be working on and in the creek banks. Please note that this has been conducted in a designated prospecting area that includes the creek, its banks and the surrounding acreage. It is legal to dig here and has been confirmed with our local ranger!
HOWEVER, it is not legal to do this type of mining everywhere so make sure you check your local mining regulations to ensure your legality.
also *first!
I've often wondered about the digging you do in creek banks n beds. I know your old mate from Eldorado cursed fossickers' digs when we went out panning. Some you could break a leg in, especially if you're an old fart like me *. But, I guess, with the Ranger's OK - so important - and the fact that next flood event, tonnes of silt and stones will move downstream, filling in diggings, it makes sense that restoring a dig is not so important. Good to warn your viewers of this issue, though, as they come from all over the planet.
*You're looking good for 30!!! Happy Day!
Congratulations on first comment!
2nd not😂 probably 2000th.Only 30! Am 45 and really feel like am 85!!
@Al Gottsch time is precious and worth more than gold or money! I used to be able to do lots of active things when I was young but the last 20+ years have been rough with pain and not being able to move very well.I have a rare bone disease called hereditary multiple exostosis which grows bone tumours all over my body so I do what ever I can when I can and usually feel it for days or weeks.I love prospecting but I've recently moved house and I'm still recovering but really need to hit the stream for a sluice and pan.😉cheers👍
So how come a rangers opinion overrides dept rules?
Ahh, Upper Bench dirt and Lower Bench dirt, now I understand Parliament better, the Upper Bench is basically the older dirt that hasn't been moved on yet. 😏
For the win!
So true though
Nice! At 5:00 grizz saw you throw that rock...he's a pretty funny guy!
Hes a goof ball
You are very good at explaining what you are doing and showing to anyone that is listening and or watching.
Excellent video. The more you talk about the pay streak and bench deposits the more everything is falling into place. It’s all about the basics
Your excitement is contagious! This was a fun one to watch. Im a terrible teacher I let my spoon do the work. 👌
Oh Pauly, .......... and your mouth. You eat too much of the stuff. Do you swallow? I just keep on thinking where all those kangaroos poo......... scary. Doesn't seem to have harmed you one little bit tho. If I did that, I'd probably end up in hospital enjoying a stomach pump :)
Nice
Great video, thanks for taking us along!
"Why yes, it's a rock. But you, Daddy love rocks too! I just wanted to show my support and love for you, by loving and playing with the same things as you."
I remember 30! And that was 20 ago.. yikes... i watch busted knuckles also! Great stuff also.... All of you guys are great to watch, very entertaining and very info heavy... :)
Quite impressive with those small creeks that you pan from.Aside from the upper banks,your shallow creek gold recoveries are with good results.Best of luck from BC, Canada
Indeed they are
Chris I always look forward to your positive personality. Your a ray of sunshine ☀️
Cheers mate
You're on it now! Good gold showing Chris!
I bet I've seen 75% of your videos. This is hands down the best video. The editing is on point and most importantly the gold was beautiful.
It APPEARS that Grizzly is a ROCK HOUND!
Nice one ! Grizzly is no “ golden retriever “but he is the star ⭐️ rock hound in all videos
He lives up to the name!
The Guru of Gold Prospecting does it again! Awesome job Chris!
Thanks mate
Every time I watch your videos it always makes me think of when I get to the creek I like I read it so much better 👍👍 thanks again
Thank you for the light.
Long time ago I talked to an old chap who worked on a dredge in the Beechworth area as a young boy ,he told me that behind the dredge the gravell was all yellow. He said that there was an old bloke who was panning the gravell got a small pill bottle full of gold out of every dish . I belief that most of the gold we are getting now comes from the dredging , he also told me that the dredge he was working on went up the wrong valley , they run out of gold , so they just left it there. Cheers
Another awesome vid.
I’d love to see a full video on the clean up process once you take your rough findings home.
That last tip on the unsaid information in videos that you can learn from was exactly the method I learned commercial mushroom picking with. Great advice and thank you for the education. You do a great job explaining an effective method of prospecting. I'm going to soon be applying it to my area and see what there is out there in the ground.
Reading between the lines is a very important skill. Most of the information we collect in a day is visually not auditory, so it should be applied to here as well.
Sweet deposit find ! I Look forward to more videos
This video actually helped me understand your methodology pretty well.! Nice Gold haul!
Now if only there was gold in limestone strewn Florida...
I'd like to hear more about how this video did that, for personal curiosity sake.
@@VoGusProspecting Well I think it was test planning in an X pattern. Something like that never occurred to me. It was also a nice nugget of knowledge (pun intended) about wetting your bucket before putting the dirt in the sluice.
On an unrelated note, you did a video a week or 2 ago when you stumbled across a quartz vein. I'm curious if there is a way to get a piece of it and soak it in a solution to dissolve the quartz but leave any gold?
@@1TakoyakiStore Hey Tako, if the quartz is milky white rather than clear you can dissolve it in an acid solution....white vinegar works well
@@allanwysocki6234 I knew limestone was soluble in acid but I wasn't sure if that was the same case for quartz.
@@1TakoyakiStore it depends....if its milky white there is a high calcium carbonate content....if it is already degrading you know it will work well as the natural acidity of rain has already started the process
Another great vid mate. I like how you show us the whole process of finding gold
Great beautiful gold! Nice job. You deserve it. Your knowledge is paying off. Thanks Chris.
Great info again. It's very hard to try and explain everything you do in a video, but when you watch quite a few of these and pick up a bit from each, it all starts to make sense. Putting it all into practice is the next for me.
That's it, any one video will give you some information. But as a collection you'll obtain a large knowledge base.
My brother's dog's favorite toy was his brick. an actual brick! he would groan ever so gently whilst gingerly picking up his brick and then he would prance around the yard with it in his mouth and with so much pride lol.
Love seeing that Gold in that Black mat! Thanks for the video!
Its nice hey
Grizz just chilling with a rock in his trap 😂
As always, another great video with good information for the people!
Haven't watched your videos in a couple months and i have to say the quality has been getting better and better! Way to go man!
Somewhere around that area has to be an “Ancient Riverbed” which should yield pay streaks from a long long time ago. “UNTOUCHED NUGGETS”. Those old digs probably never revealed it. Great vid!
Nah man, this is located in an old hydro sluice pit. Its the gold the old blokes couldn't catch. that's why most of it is so fine.
Great video Chris. Lot's of information all in one video. Thank you for sharing
Well hello there! Sure is nice to see you again, thanks for sharing!
I use to watch you a tear ago then stopped. Now just did again and got to say, your editing and filming are really improving. Loved it. You're going to be huge
Welcome back!
Chris I have watched a majority of your videos and by far this is one of the most informative.
I cant wait to go out to my claim and put this techique to work on a couple of benches I have discovered.
Keep up the great work!!
Jefesgold
Great vid as always Chris. Fantastic info as usual. I was surprised you were using the river sluice rather than the high banker....as I thought the banker would be easier on your back...
Nice find ! I'm getting ready to go on my first prospecting trip wish me luck.
In French Canadian we don't say good luck because it is not a chance to say that so we sat "merde"...I can translate that by "shit" and that's the word for chance so Merde yo!
Good luck! Don’t listen to the little frenchy!
Really enjoy watching Vo-Gus and Shane'Oz. A great big Howdy from Texas!
Cheers buddy
Great video Chris! I just love Grizzly to death. "Grizzly, is that a rock? Gives you the look, then, PLOP😁
He's an adorable jerk
Nice work, I appreciate any advice and different views to try out with my digging partner (my son) my dad showed me what he had learned but back then we had the metal smooth pans and I know we probably lost a 1/3 of our possible finds. Great video thank you for sharing.
Great video 👍👍 keep up the good work and good luck in your search for the golden nugget 🤠🤠
Man I can feel your excitement! Great video...
Great music, beautiful location lots of gold and your wonderful bubbly personality. Love your vids Chris
Cheers mate
Great video Chris, Grizzly's helping you one rock at a time. Good thing it was a large rock. You keep this up and you'll be able to call yourself a full time gold prospector.
When you threw a large rock into the creek, Grizzly thought you were playing with him. Next thing he has a rock in his mouth. Good fun!! Thanks for this upload.
he's a big goofy idiot some days
Nice video mate it’s good you teach info as you go im learning how hard it is to film and Prosepct it really cuts into time that could be spent on the gold so appreciate the work your going too 👍🏼
It take up a ton of time hey
HaHa that was one of the rocks you threw in the river he's a fantastic dog now back to the important stuff look at all that gold teriffic
Really enjoyed the video, great gold and brilliant to see grizzly helping out , what a star ⭐️ 👍😎
Hes a handsome devil
that's good proof that dream mat catchs good dream of gold :)
Really good video mate, great teachings to put into practice. Well done 👍🏻
Thank you!
You do a really good job.I find your videos educational
Decent gold! All that fine gold adds up quickly😀
So many walk away from the super fines because it doesn't look that impressive right off the bat. But 300 or 400 shovels of it adds up quick!
@@VoGusProspecting I have found several decent deposits because people did just that walk away and we where happy to snatch up those areas. As much as everyone wants big gold, you dont often find the big gold without pursuing the little stuff! Any gold is worth pursuing in my opinion, has to come from somewhere. Anyway love the videos, keep them coming👍👌
That first bucket you were working looked like it was full of raw sewage. Nice gold you got there.
Mate I thought exactly the same thing !
I thought " whatcha doing, going thru sewerage looking for swallowed gold teeth ?"
Sweet adventure nice find perfect colour awesome thanks big guy be safe
Ooooo that pay streak at the intersection of both rivers!!👍⛏🤘
Congratulations on another great presentation!
This was definitely one of your best vids Chris. Very informative, lots of colour and a very beautiful setting. Keep them coming, they are a joy to watch :)
Funny thing is I actually didn't like this film when I was making it.
@@VoGusProspecting It's turned out excellent :)
Hello Chris, good find, but I think You should puddle contents of Your bucket,keep pouring water off, to get rid of all clay and light organic matter, then sluice sharp sand.Try it next time on this bench, because it holds so much very fine gold, You ought to get even more ,Good Luck ,regards George
I did, you just didn't see it on film 😊
Happy Pre-Birthday young man. Great video!! Lots of great info.
I really appreciate your videos An old prospector commented your videos are realistic It is a hobby to do for Love I would like to learn how to clean up the concentrates of mustard gold at home before weighing it PLEASE
Great information in every video man hope your doing well
Great information and well laid out . Nice video sir .👍
Good to see Grizzly is helping you . One day he might pick up a rock full of gold 😁
Yer a hefty dental bill lol
You have worked that much dirt over the years I have a feeling your going to surprise yourself soon and come across your biggest nugget yet.
One day, but in the meanwhile I'll take my 10,000 specks!
10,000 specks is awesome.
Grate work as always dear chap. Still yet to get out and try our new dream mat! Stuck in the city :(
Looks great, just found this page. Can't wait to start learning and getting out there
Hope you enjoy the channel
@@VoGusProspecting absolutely mate! Can't thank you enough so far for all the tips and newbie tricks.
WOW..would love to get a 10 bucket run like that, it's been so long since I got out and the fever is burning bad. Well done Chrid.
Excellent run! Good on ya!
So Chris is that type of deposit similar to glacier deposits ? I’m always trying to use the information from your videos for my situations thank you so much for your videos I love them 😍
Pretty much, just on a smaller scale.
Awsome videos mate love them . I hope to catch you out at the creek one day for a bit of a chat & give that grizzly a nice pat & a kiss
Could happen mate.
@@VoGusProspecting hi chris i sent $9.95 paypal payment for a copy of your book just letting you no haven't got it in my email yet .thanks mate .
Great vid. Wetting down slurry is good knowledge. Really like the green mat. Cheers
Got to have wet dirt brother
Another interesting video Chris ty for sharing
Great Day!!!!
4:21 griz is checking out the yowie
gotta love old flood gold huh
Congratulations on the 20k Subs Chris! You put out a quality production that is both educational and fun to watch. Things will snowball from here I'm sure, best of luck!
Thanks mate I appreciate it
Great video. One of these days I'll visit Australia and maybe meet you. Until then I'll keep turning in from ohio.
NICE GOLD always enjoy your videos and total education as you roll. Cheers mate
Same right back at you, everything I know about my GM1000 Is off your channel
thats the size of gold we find around here, i would love to find them bigger pieces that you found,, but i,ll settle for the flour / dust that we find,, be strong, be safe, and be blessed
Congratulations Chris well done mate awsome gold , you deserve it ✌️ it wont be long before we see you on Aussie gold hunters lol i hope something like that does happen to you . Chiris you definitely have the skills to do really well in the mining industry , thanks for posting mate looking forward to your next video 👍👍👍✌️✌️✌️
Thanks for the video. I did question water speed in the sluce because of how low on the mat you were getting gold, did the traps after the black mat trap the rest of the gold?
Looks like you can make wages on that ground. Nice find. Thanks
For sure man
thanks i always learn a lot from you thank you so much
Awsome gold mate I just built a new highbanker 36in by 9 in wide I bought some low profile v mat for it I hope she can run double than the old one. When I tested it I ran 3 buckets of dirt through it it took it pretty well. But I use a sump pump not a bilge pump so I need a expensive battery and a expensive inverter to run on my creek. But thanks for the information it would take quite a while on my creek to find the paystreak.
Nice cleanup!
Looks like a great spot to use the high banker.
It sure was
Grizzly looked so upset when you stopped throwing rocks
(5:10)
He even kept one as a souvenir
(8:06)
Haha, this is a great comment
Great video and great spot, Chris. Now, i think it make sense for some spots that i should try. Thanks for sharing.
Good luck
Thank you that was really cool.
Great video Chris, I love it when you film with your DSLR, really great quality of a Video, and some really nice gold to boot too. Cheers from Canada!
My last 8 or so videos are all on a Canon M50 mirrorless and rode mic
@@VoGusProspecting NICE... :)
Wow great gold🤩 must have killed your back doing all that lol! Love your mad woofit too.👍🤗 thanks from Scotland 🙏🙏
Nah man, I have a stool
Nice.
Test pan your tailing pile below the sluice on occasion.
Already do mate. Important thing to check.
Really enjoy watching your video's. I'm also subscribed to the guys you mentioned. Thanks for sharing!
Nice one Chris. I hope all your tips get lodged in my brain some place. And how do you know my mum? Ha ha
Were old frinds from way back
Cracking vid mate luv your explanations on many things always something to b learned well done cheers
"confirmed by our local ranger"...is critical. regardless of my desire to not let the "Ranger" know too much, I have found, for the most part, "rangers" are very supportive of my endeavors. Most think that I am a nut case anyway. they always seem to have a half hidden smile on there face. Quick story: while on a raft trip some years ago I found an inside bend that was exposed, on top there was about 4 inches of blond sand, 4 inches of pure black sand and then another layer of blonds. I was a rookie at the time and did not understand what I was seeing. after watching your videos and others, boy, did I miss, no pun intended, a golden opportunity. Since retiring and before I get to crippled up from old age, I am going to find that place again. the layering may not be there but on the other side of the river and up a small narrow canyon with a small stream coming out of it, I plucked out a clump of grass with my pan on the downstream side and panned it out. WOW!!! I did not have the time to explore the upper reaches of that narrow canyon. I have a lot to do. I am searching the river via google map satellite imagery and will plot the best way to get in. I luv your enthusiasm and willingness to share your wisdom with all of us rookies. keep up the good work and I will keep you posted on my progress.
Very informative Video thanks...
Cheers man, hope you enjoyed the show.
Great video. Love the content and the education. Heavy pans bro
Thanks mate
Your back at it again good luck and heavy pans bud
You had a rock stuck in your Grizzly....lmao
