      Thanks Glenda, when the weather plays it's part and you can have a wild camp with the dog who's been everywhere else with you, it's always going to make you feel happy. As you know, a few specs of gold is a bonus.
      As for the tin, I couldn't believe it but the good old penknife saved the day and that chicken curry is pretty tasty for a camp meal too.

    Another good video Daz keep at it 👍have you ever panned where you can see a exposed quartz vein? I see plenty when out in the mountains in the Lake District and Scotland, there's big bands of exposed quartz mostly close to the summits but usually there's no water nearby so would probably have to just collect a sample. Do you think when the quartz is liquid and been pressurized threw the gaps in the rock usually from a magma chamber far below the mountain that the gold particles would make it to the top of the mountain or can they only rise up so high within the vein?

    • @MrDazP1adv3ntures
      @MrDazP1adv3ntures  2 роки тому +3

      Hello Jonathan and thank you for the comments buddy.
      There's a huge exposed vein in the mountain side visible from the valley below at the river Orchy near Tyndrum and all of that area is surrounded by faults with an abundance of mineralised juicey stuff.
      The old timers across the globe used to find the gold and chase it either underground or higher up the valley sides looking for the motherlode.
      I saw an interesting feature about vein structures where the geologists noted that over many different periods of time, they can become active and transport heavy metals through them which cool down again, leaving several layers of visible mineralization.
      It's all interesting stuff and I am not a geologist but this hobby makes you think a lot about these kind of things

      Hello Jasper, you can get permits at 3 locations in Scotland. Leadhills, Mennock and Baile An Or. The campsite in Tyndrum promotes gold panning from beside your pitch in the river.
      Hope this helps buddy.
