      @@rayon3383 If you understood the logistics involve having a resort out there on the Arctic Tundra, the price is very reasonable. Remember, there are no roads to Nome. Everything is shipped via dog sled, freighter, or plane. I wasn't there to strike it rich, but to enjoy the vacation and shoot a few videos. However, if you work hard enough you could easily pay for the trip. Gold is everywhere up there. 👍

      Hi Jay ! Glad you had success with the wash plant ! Hope you find lots of gold with it. 👍 I've been super busy on multiple fronts, so I haven't had time to shoot videos lately. I will be retiring from my day job Jan. 3rd, so I can devote more time for Gold Rattler production. Also experimenting with a new accessory for the plant that might be a huge game changer in the water filtration process. If successful, will definitely be making videos on this. Best of luck out there !! 🤠⛏️⚒️👍

    You guys should sell the gravel. It is quite unified in size, and it is water shaped, round gravel. People use it for decorations, pathways, around plants to get rid of weeds... They sell these bagged by 30kgs in hobby shops. And you have it pressure washed.

      No market. There's literally hundreds of square miles of it. Virtually all metamorphic Schist. Flat and crumbly. Ship to lower 48 is too cost prohibited. Remember, there are NO roads leading to Nome. It has to be flown or arrive by sea barge.

    Nice rig but very low throughput. And throughput = gold.
    If, as he says, it takes 6 scoops to make a yard and he's feeding them at about 1 scoop per minute (it appears) then he's only working 10 yards per hour, not the 25 he says the trommel can handle.

      It’s true that this wash plant can process more material if run at a faster pace. I’m just demonstrating how it operates and the results it produces.

      Through put does not necessarily equal gold. One needs to take in account for the rock type. This rock is flat layers of schist. If you feed too much rock into the hopper, some won't get washed, thus less gold. So more is not better.

      You can't. The material is flat Schist. Flat material is much harder to process than rounded. In this case, slower is better. Yeah, he could by a larger plant, but that's easy to say from the couch. Coughing up the $$$$ is another thing.
