    You know I watch your videos all the time. I'm self-employed in the United States state of Washington sometimes that I don't have money to send you and that edit the last of your video it didn't quit it's like you were spitting in my face therefore I disliked your video and I'm going to unsubscribe good day sir

      I was not asking for money my man. I was saying thank you to the people who have been supporting my channel financially.
      I completely understand the struggle, in 2016 I was homeless, with $300 to my name. I tell everyone that there is no commitment expected from anyone to support me with money because I know most people simply can't and I don't want to put that pressure on people.
      But the people who have decided they want to deserve a thank you. They did it out of their own choice and I'm appreciative of that. Patron is how I fund things like give aways, petrol etc to make these videos.
      This was not an attack on anyone, it was just a thank you to some people who have helped me out.
      Hope you understand, if you want to leave that's OK too. I wish you the best.

      I'm in the northern Adirondacks of NYS. There's glacial flour here but it's sporadic and we're talking 5 to 15 miles or more of hiking for known spots. I might get into the bouquet river but our rivers freeze over here and an ice dam breaking would erase me. I'm pretty much snowbound till thaw and runoff. It'll come sooner or later and I'll be out backpacking!

Get the drone upstairs and look for unusual drop offs or depressions in that vicinity. I reckon your big pay day is right around the corner. 😀.

  • @karbofos023
    @karbofos023 3 роки тому

    I think the reason you did not get a lot of finer gold, is the speed you were running stuff through the sluice. Maybe slow it down some and give the sluice some time to run through the material. Definitely take a bucket, classify into the bucket, then run the classified material through the sluice one scoop at a time letting that scoop clean out before adding the next. I know that seems very slow, but i think it'll help you get more gold.

Because I was just thinking about us loose that short when you’re running that much material through who is to say that like rocks or what not don’t eventually just pop the odd picker or what not into your tailings. Just an idea I had. Thought I would throw it out there.

      All our gold is guarded by deadly animals, most of our snakes are highly venomous, roos will punch your head in, platypuses have a venomous barb, large lizards the size of alligators, have infectious bites, plus we have wild dogs, wild boars and wild deer, that are all dangerous, not to mention lethal scorpions, leeches.... Yep, leave Aussie to Aussies. We are not even allowed to carry a sidearm for hiking and such...But we don't have piranhas, so that's a blessing..
