Enjoy seeing you collab with Dan Hurd. Very interesting to hear the reasoning behind your smelting recipe.
Love the Dan Hurd collaboration videos! You two make a great team.
Great collab, awesome to see you guys doing things like this! Keep up the great work!
Thank you very much for the explanations of the smelting process !
Like a boss...A Perfect teacher/Professor/student instructional Thanks...
Immediate like! By far you are my favourite gold UA-camr . Thanks for the many hours of entertainment Jason.
Great video Jason! Content like this teaching young people about your craft is what youtube is all about!
That glassy slag looked amazing!
I think that's the best smelt I've ever seen you do, I mean the cone mold.
Very simple yet informative
Love watching you both! Looks like you both have a lot of fun together!
Hell of a good video. I love how you explain each step.
Hey Jason! Been watching you and Dan working together for a while and I love to see the process of crushing the stone and then of course smelting to see what ya got.😁 The "Beast" is one awesome machine!!
Thanks again for a great video.
All the best. 👍😎🇨🇦
Very awesome work Brother years of hard work are paying off way cool 😎 thanks alot MB😊
Great stuff Jason, I really enjoy seeing your equipment in use, and your mining vids make me feel like a part of the crew. Thank you for the entertainment and the knowledge you bring evety time. Peace.
Good video. I truly like when you and Dan collaborate. Great stuff
Very interesting stuff once again Jason
Jason, another excellent video. I love the collaboration videos with you and Dan. I can’t wait for your upcoming gold mining videos.. 😊😊😊
Great video Jason, thanks for sharing with us. Stay safe and I’m looking forward to your upcoming videos.
If you grab the crucible from the 3-9 o clock spot instead of noon to the 6 o’clock pour spot, you’ll have an easier time pouring and less heat on your hands
Great Job Jason! Loving the rock slabbing!
The slag looks so cool.
That was such a perfect smelt....and for Dan. Just great, thanks for the shows.
Hello Jason! I looked it up for confirmation and this is the origin info: [Borrowed from French coupelle, from Medieval Latin cūpella, diminutive of Latin cūpa (“cask”).] It's pronounced like "cue PELL" so now we know for sure! Good to see you and Dan doing what you enjoy.
You and Dan make a good combo.. love watching both your videos.
Thank you. I subscribed. Learned lots. And your a very good teacher.
I enjoyed both videos,very nice
Great seeing the gold. Really cool to see how it's done.
I really enjoy how you two work together. Thanks
You always make the videos interesting, thank you.
Thank you for sharing this awesome content
Excellent explanations, I appreciate each and every one of them even though I'm sure you're tired of describing the whole process!
Great stuff always enjoy watching the videos !
Thanks for your knowledge
Perfect smelt. You had to keep Dan happy! 😄
Loved the video, nice and straight forward. Get a bucket for used cupels.
Thanks for sharing awesome job
Loved it. Will gobble up any more Dan Hurd related content for sure. Also will gobble up any Andy Thraxx crossovers . Also will gobble up any goshdarn thing you ever post so... Keep being you. :)7
Always great to see you and Dan working together
These team videos are awesome 👍.
Jason, you and Dan are such fun chill dudes. When I watch yalls collabs it feels like buddies just hanging out. I'm very jealous I dont have any gold mines in Texas!
Yo tambien
Gold will find you.if you look for gold.
Yeah, but we've got so much other cool stuff in Texas; who needs gold?
Not too shabby Thank you for sharing
Love the coaberation
😁👋👍👍👏👏💕🙏🏻
Hi Jason thanks for a great episode. I always learn something new, actually more than one thing. Every episode. I really like watching you do stuff. And I really like watching Dan do stuff and the two of you together makes it even more fabulous. The machines that you've created are amazing, I am just floored.
This is so cool!
Would be great if you could do acid tests on the beads. Would find that really interesting.
Interesting techniques explained. Enjoyed watching 😅
Thank you
Very nice Jason!! Great Team Work! JJ
awesome!
Dan was right about this video would be ready.
Good job
Excellent mining production.
Well done 👏....great collaboration 👍
very interesting video my friend, thank you for sharing the video.🤝🇮🇩🔔🔔🇮🇩👍
Till the next one 🍻
You need to be very careful around ceramic fibre insulation, some packaging will mislead you into thinking it is a safe product but all ceramics will change the structure when superheated and the result can then become a serious heath hazard!
The dust ? I have some but sealed it in a bag until I learn more......
@@pappawheely yes as I am led to believe the superheated dust will no longer be body soluble and could stay in you system for years!
@@foxfish7115 nano dust sounds bad. I will keep it bagged for damn sure ... thanks...
@@foxfish7115t's not soluble, what happens is after formed into fibers, the pieces or strands are generally too large to be inhaled with much risk. Heating to high temps on the other hand can cause it to become more brittle especially with repeated cycled, allowing it to break in smaller average sized pieces that can get caught in your lungs more easily. I suspect that what can happen is the same as breathing in glass particles that will cause your lung tissue to scar around the inhaled particles. Repeated exposure would then significantly reduced your lung capacity. It's the exact reason why media/sand blasting either takes place in a sealed box, or they wear a full body suit with a respirator.
@@pappawheely I use a lot of ceramic fibre products and have done so for many years! It has only been recently that I discovered the hazard potential but I have always been pretty cautious wearing mask when handling the stuff!
I think you just need to be aware…..
Great idea to work with Dan Hurd and connect the video's.
I'm here straight from Dan's video / channel. Lol 👍
Thank you for all your hard work
Great video
Cool video!
Wow, thank you Jason for putting the smelting video on home it's the same time as Dan's video, now we are not stuck with a cliffhanger. LOL
🇺🇲💰🇺🇲
Great 👍
All the best from Amsterdam 🎉
i do wanna find more videos like this
Great video! I saw another video you did about roasting and I was wondering when you roast the sulfides, do you still need to use flux?
What was the free gold plus the bead weight/ assay per ton?
nice, very clear step by step walk thru, i just fininshed dans live. thanks for sharing
Excellent colab with Dan outstanding video sir I would ask is it possible to recover the lead in crt tube? Thank you for sharing this six stars brother
subed from dan hurd love the vids
Could you use some free labor lol . I'm retired and have been watching you and Ben for a while. I really love what you can do with all you equipment and knowledge. I have a good retirement so money isn't the answer at all . Excuse me most of the time anyway. Thinking it would be nice to know more about this prospecting . Thinking later maybe ending up on Arizona area maybe and would be nice knowledge to know as well as equipment needed. I can also just watch your videos that I love to watch. Thank you for your time and consideration. God Bless you both.
Sorry Jason but Dan's came up first so I watched yours second. Can't wait to see more on the gold mine and also the helicopter run. Great colab.
I knew I smelt sumpthin!😂
It would be fun to compare your smelting with Sreetips having a go at separating the gold with chemicals.
Hi Jason, Nice refine! Any gold mine would be very happy at 12 grams a ton! Stay safe! Thumbs up! Jim
Question on bismuth: is recovery necessary? If you did grind up the cupel, could you just add it to the next smelt in place of the added bismuth? In other words, could you combine the separate smelt needed to recover the bismuth with the next regular smelt reducing the cost?
That is very interesting but it looks like it is a lot of work So what I'm question is it worth all the time and gas that you spent for that button Thank you so much for sharing and God bless and I hope you find the mother load
Where did you get your slag molds? Did you weld them up yourself?
💛
Im a “city boy” and this was eye opening. I’d love to learn this trade
Is that Marbor #7 cupel? I use those. My friend did XFR on my cupeled gold, no sign of bismuth at all, I cupel at 1000 degr. Celsius... However I bought bone ash and magnesioum oxide and will try to make my own cupels, as Marbor are hard to get here and are a bit expensive, also, sometimes I need bigger, sometimes smaller...
oh Dan sent me
First I saw that codys lab use bismuth as collector metal 😀 did you also see from him?
اخى العزيز انا مشترك فى قناتك من زمان ومتابع جيد لك وفديوهاتك جميلة جدا ومفيدة تحية حب واعتزاز وتقدير لك يامحترم لى سؤال لو تكرمت واكون ممنون وشاكر لك رسالة هو ماهى لو انا عايز اصهر كيلو رمل سليكا اضع ماهى مواد الصهر التى أضيفها على كيلو الرمل وكميتها كام للكيلو عشان المصهور يكون سائل كالماء كما تفعل انت بالظبط عايز مقادير مواد الصهر لكيلو رمل سليكا واسماء المواد عشان يصير المصهور سائل وشكرا اك
Ever thought about offering crucibles? I don’t need anything near as big as you use. But finding anything that will survive is impossible. In a very small scale that is. I work in small parts, like 1lb samples tops
❤
please make video explaining the sulfide you mention all the time.
from all the video you made that i watched i presume that there is some gold trapped in other metals corrosion or something ... idk
I like your Vids. I got a question: how can you seperate the gold from the silver? Regards from Vienna!
Look up inquartation to learn how to separate them.
Side note, I would also love to purchase hard lead if that would be an option? This is a common request among garage bass fishing bait makers
Roger❤
👍
Jason where do you buy your crucible at what do they cost
Здравствуйте! Скажите пожалуйста, на сколько плавок хватает тигеля из карбида кремния, при таких условиях?
اخي كيف يتم صناعة بوتقة التبخير هذا الذي تعمل بهاء
Always enjoy the logic end of this. How bad ass all of our forefathers where.
New gloves? Is there a story here?
where can i buy this type of Cupel/pupel ? link:
Hi.bro.What is flour?
ليش مافيه ترجمه
First Creek Rock Shop over in the Swauk was selling their rock cutter, if I had money I'd grab it...sigh.. broke...
Wait a sec Jeff's sample you smelted about a year prior to this video was like grey colored, and that was estimated at 80% gold. Dan's has a yellow color to it and it's estimated at 75%? Either you've gotten better at estimating since then, or your camera/software has changed the way the gold looks. :-P
Try making a wood ash paint for your cone mold i basicaly mix wood ash and water and paint the inside of my cone mold and then put it on top of the furnace to dry youl basicaly paint it twice and almost never again
