Gold Mining in Alaska Part 1

  • Опубліковано 8 лют 2025
  • Jason from ‪@mbmmllc‬ invites ‪@mineoperator‬ Harry to a gold mining client in Alaska. We walk the ground and tour some mines. More importantly we run Jasons milling equipment in a very remote location. In Part 1 the equipment needs some attention as it sat for two Alaskan Winters. In Part 2 we run and mill some high grade gold ore and smelt into a button.
    Stay tuned for Part 2

    Gold looks like it's going big this year. I really want to profit from it this year. I have about $140k I want to invest. My brain doesn't do very well in understanding these things. How do I go about it?

      Don't act on every forecast. It is best you speak with a market expert before making any investment decisions. My two cents.

      A good number of people discredit the effectiveness of financial advisors in exploring new markets, but over the past 4years I’ve had a financial advisor consistently restructure and diversify my portfolio/expenses and I’ve made over $3million in gains… might not be a lot but i'm financially secure.

    i can imagine a spherical grinder machine that could roll about in a mine and grind away through it to gather up ore and rock as dust and chips, etc. basically it could go in any direction and support itself in any orientation, and could even be single person operated, with its own water and air and electric and hydraulic supply. i dont know why, but i have the inexplicable urge to smooth out ALL of those walls in either a full or half circle or vaulted with a point shape lol... probably a waste of time to do so, but i can imagine it lol. that, and you could, in theory run a sluice system out the back of said machine and process ore as you went. using a recirculating system for the water, and a de-watering screw type device so you can then haul out the waste material near continuously... mad scientist style steam-punk sort of contraption, but my mind just does that lol

      ​@@mineoperator A good position to be in, rather than having to pay to run pumps 24/7 to keep the workings from flooding and rotting. With all those slips there's probably a lot of cracks for the water to find its way deeper.
