    Why is everyone giving good Negan a hard time?! If you do not understand then you probably shouldn’t be watching this video. He has said and any video you watch on UA-cam about pay dirt will tell you it is NOT an investment. You will NOT make any money doing this. The companies that sell the dirt would be out of business rapidly if they out more gold inside than what you pay for it. So why do it? Well in this case he is making videos for US so we know what companies have better paydirt. As you will always lose money that doesn’t mean you have to lose it all. Some companies barely put any gold in and are scams. Why would anyone want to do this to lose money? It is a HOBBY!,,,
    Just like model trains or playing golf or playing video games. Hobbies cost money. It is fun!
    Think of it as the equipment is the Xbox and the paydirt is a new game. You are paying for the experience. You are paying for the fun. If you still don’t understand then you need to find good in your pan for the first time in a river. It is called GOLD FEVER

    If they are throwing processed clean gold into buckets of dirt and charging top dollar for it plus making money on shipping they could sprinkle in more gold.
    They are winning regardless.
    The math does not work itself out in the real world and gold does not come out super clean like that.

    • @MillerProspecting
      @MillerProspecting  5 років тому +1

      @Michael PacNW. Almost all paydirt is slated or it would absolutely suck. In real mining gold is measured by the ton in dirt. So a gram per ton is good stuff, but nobody is going to buy a ton of dirt. So sellers salt the dirt, the key is to find sellers who sell real paydirt and salt it.

    The Nugget bucket was always meant for families who go out so I expect they think you'll have an extra hand or two to help.

      As long as it isn't full of gold it will hold more. Same thing as if it was a sluice, the mats keep working until they are full of gold. Gold is so much heavier than dirt it sinks to the bottom.

  • @cacogenicist
    @cacogenicist 5 років тому +1

    As for the classifier clogging up, with small gold getting caught in there, the force of the water needs to be higher -- like it would be _dumping_ water in with a bucket, rather than sprinkling some in there with the hose.

    • @MillerProspecting
      @MillerProspecting  5 років тому +1

      The force of the water has NOTHING to do with how the Nugget Bucket works or how a classifier works. The reason the classifiers aren't good on the nugget bucket is because they are plastic. A normal mesh wire classifier will flex/bend to allow material slightly larger to fit through. A plastic classifier will not, in fact, it actually makes it easier for material to get lodged in a way it is extremely difficult to extract.

Have alot of clay material in Virginia. That thing looks good for gravels only not dirty pay dirt. I bet the cube slaughters it because of the redundancy. Oh and your better half seemed happy you finally did that bucket as are we all. Wtg bro. And lol in that one bucket you matched what I have in my vial of panning for 1 yr of bought paydirts. But ya know how that goes hit or miss. me I seem to miss alot lol, but still an awesome hobby. Pan on All

      Not only are they extremely close in sizes 1/8 and 3/16th but the holes are extremely spaced apart. Si they clog easy and really slow down processing. I am working on a DIY work around though :)

      Well if you consider the alternatives, much more expensive equipment (3-5x the cost) or doing it all manually and then turning a 4 hour fun excursion into 2 days of back breaking work, it makes it worth the price.

    • @MillerProspecting

      Its not really what the pans color is but how your eyes distinguish 2 colors apart. So some people gold pops out more with black or green or even purple. My eyes see the gold better on a blue pan. If most colors are looking black your real problem will be the black sands, so you will probably need as light of a color as possible. I am guessing pink might end up being your new best friend, lol.

      Hey TJ
      Color Blindness varies so much I could never tell you. What you should do is get a pile of construction paper and a piece of god and give it a go. That will save you from buying a whole mess of pans. Try Blue, pink, blue, green and purple, those are all the colors I now pans come in.

    Kind of using the Nugget bucket wrong. Way more water (Buckets not hose) and you dont have to stop and clear the classifiers every time.
    You can run half that bucket of dirt then clear classifier. Good video

    • @MillerProspecting
      @MillerProspecting  6 років тому

      Hat e to disagree but 100% wrong. I discussed water amount with a nugget bucket representative and a hose is fine. Secondly the material I was running was almost square shaped so after a few scoops all of the classifier holes were clogged. Adding more material would have done nothing as the classifier was blocked. Adding more water again would have done nothing as holes were blocked. It does not take away that I think the nugget bucket is awesome.

    Do you keep all your gold or sell it to pay for more paydirt? And do you ever melt it down? I wouldn't melt my nuggets but was thinking of melting the fly poop gold. I keep all my gold. I have only 8 grams. But i just ordered another 3 gram bag from goldbay. So far they are my favorite. I've done lynch mining gizmos got $17 for $22 bag not bad. And i pan4gold was 2.06 grams for like $108. And then some ebay stuff that all sucked. The 3 food 1's i found were all from watching your reviews. Thanks!!

    Hey Dylan, wouldn’t the gold you would have found that didn’t get through the screen actually .010G less because l how much your triangular dishes weigh? I only ask because you didn’t zero out the tray. If this is the case, you would have actually found about 0.690G of gold. I’m referring to between 21 and 23 minutes.

    • @MillerProspecting
      @MillerProspecting  6 років тому

      Hey, I know it does look like that, but actually all of the trays vary in weight by 0.010 and the tray the gold was on was the one I zeroed out the tray on. Then when I put the wrong tray on it showed the difference. I did mess up though with the nuggets though.

Since that video, they've have modified the handle so it doesn't bend. Here is the video name he is reviewing it in. Prospecting at Arapahoe Bar gold panning area, Colorado - 10,000 subscriber gold paydirt giveaway. There's a code and link in the description if you should choose to purchase one. Enjoyed your video. Looking forward to seeing what the goldcube collects.

      I have seen it, and not sure i would call it best ever made. Another company used to make a full 5 gallon classifier that was great. Also at $72 it would be very expensive to use 3 or 4, not to mention cumbersome. I really like the Cyclone classifiers.

    • @MillerProspecting

      I didnt, but it is my understanding from talking to the Nugget Bucket support that step is to prevent the bowl from floating away not from gold blowing out. I asked them about it a long time ago, because none of the videos show them doing it, and was told it is to keep the bowl itself from blowing out, but doubt it would happen unless you are pumping in a ton of water before adding material.

    Good show man love the reviews. And I say this with no disrespect. You did use the gold Rush bucket improperly. You used a low Flo hose to wash the gold through its classifier. what did gold Rush bucket is meant to be dumping at least a half a bucket of water through it at a time so the force from that water going through is exponentially greater than the hose you used. as well jump in the water through with a bucket swirls it in there a little bit more and it actually fix the pieces up and cleans everything properly. Thanks for the showing again no disrespect I just say what I noticed.

    • @MillerProspecting
      @MillerProspecting  4 роки тому +2

      Thanks and I do disagree of course though, lol. The way the Nugget Bucket works is based on the funnel and catch tray, and has nothing to do with the volume of water. You could use a trickle of water and it would work the exact same. The only difference the water will make would be in cleaning off the rocks that gold might be stuck to. Since this was not "real" paydirt the odds of it having caked-on gold were slim to none. As the video showed it worked "in my opinion" as good as the gold cube.

I didn't use a seasoned pan so it did kind of stick it wasn't that easy to do ,.I'm used to steel pans. My grandfather taught me on them a long time ago. From Vermont not used to the small small gold like that. How do you season plastic pants I know the steel I throw in fire for an hour, then I dunk them and I end up with a blue steel.
