It's the mole men that made the tunnel. It goes all the way to Jeff Williams mine.
If`n I see Jeff Williams pop out , I`ll play a tune for him on my 6 gun ....ha ha so come on , lets goooo !
I love Jeff Williams gold shows. He’s an amazing person.
Now I’m watching what your trying to find. Best of luck.
You guys kick ass. This video has it all. History, discovery, artifacts, plan of operation and of course gold. Best of luck to you.
Always appreciate your visit !
You guys are some hard working Miners, Fantastic video and incredible Gold Nice Thanks for sharing 👍🏼 😀
You should see the guys that ate the Mule!
Thanks 👍 I really appreciate you swinging by ! We are the real deal unlike some Nugget Heads out there !
@@IBRAKEFORBEDROCK I see you do serious work for that Gold I enjoy watching
Love the history, Relics always make you wonder about the people that left them.
I agree ! Thanks for the comment
Bee ess table lol 😆 you kill me... 🤣 😂
Lol, “You put it in your eyes…” 😂
That bottle is very old for sure Incredible find
The first bottle was an opium bottle “ elixir” From the late 1800’s. Second bottle was a pepper sauce bottle made in 1875
@@IBRAKEFORBEDROCK Thanks for letting me know I was so curious I love old bottles
Nice bottle find also
Just amazing fam. Nice au indeed. Keep at it. Gold Squad Out!!!
Reading the bottle reminded me of the clip in dumb and dumber where he's trying to read " THE " best part of the video 🤣 but what a cool find......
In fairness to him there was dirt and patina all over the bottle.... Thanks for dropping by 👍
@@IBRAKEFORBEDROCK Yeah not judging at all, which I'm sure you know. I just have a mind that goes to old movies every time I hear something and that took me there.
It’s a 1930 vegetable pain killer bottle. Worth around 50-60 dollars! Nice find!
We also found several peppersauce bottles , unfortunately they were broken. One of them had a stamp on the bottom 1874 ....
It's a turn of the century Davis Vegetable pain killer.....$2.00
Great video, yeah the old timers were there and left some good junk behind, some bottles fetch more than gold! I like the pocket knife you found and I found one too at 12 feet deep detecting an excavation hole searching for nuggets in Victoria's golden triangle. Cheers.
Love it , Thank you !
Always enjoy seeing your guys, videos. I would suggest saving all of your concentrates that do not have free gold, everything that is In that dry washer tray that is not visible gold and run it through a ball mill crusher you may be surprised how much gold is in that material Every Placer miner needs to start doing this I only know a few that do. Maybe I’ll start a business buying Placer mine tailing piles🤪
Ill pass that on to bounder dash. Hes literally an expert on hard rock refining and recovery
well I don't think your gonna get rich but the coffee Bacon and beans are great 🤣, it's a labor of love .
Cool video guys nice finds and good gold too, added a like and FB share. Cheers
Thank you so much !
I found one of those same bottles in an old outhouse hole in BC, the hole had only been there from the 1950’s
This one has very specific features that date it back to the 1880’s along with the other pepper sauce bottles we found. Really cool stuff
Love your humor guys! Others guys got here before us and that's pretty messed up. Is my face dirty. You crack me up! Is that on a claim?
Yeah, this is on a mining lease. Thanks for the comment !
It's an ancient root from a huge tree. The organic matter has since disintegrated.
Sorry , no Definitely worked ground . We followed their workings for a long way . Thank you for stopping by !
Beautiful Gold. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you for stopping by🤙
Wow! You guys killed it out there! Awesome,awesome job!
Good Times !
Really epic find guys!!! Looking 👍
Thanks for stopping by !
That was some very fine gold, especially for a dry washer. Eva was most impressed by your partially vacuumed sluice.
Thanks for tuning in Keith & Eva !
@@IBRAKEFORBEDROCK You guys are good. Well worth watching. If I ever need help with detectors or dry washing, I know who I will be asking.
A friend I sold my Homestead to in the 80s just found a 40 ounce nugget yesterday.
Shut the front door !!!! Amazing ! must be more
Looks like you may find more stuff from old prospectors camps that got washed out in a flash flood
I hope so !
Awesome finds! Enjoyed the video! Keep them coming!
Thank you sir !
Wonderful video show & explain more about the holes!
Focus in a bit more too.
Thanks great gold.😎🤠
Thanks, will do!
The Davis bottle is a mega common bottle and worth 50 cent at best if you could sell it at a bottle show. That will get you one mile in gas towards the bottle show. Plus $10 for parking plus $ 60 for your 8 foot table and $ 7 for the hot dog and small coke. Fill up your gas task for the trip home. The broken bottle was a common pepper sauce.
Do you find davis bottles from 1875 with the liquid still in them and original cork ?
So cool! I sure hope you guys detect those coarse tailings, never know if a big one is hidin in there...
Ugh ! dont say that ! ....We did detect some but definitely not as much as we should have .
O M G, a mini excavator and a grizzly!!!!!!! Im so jealous, except for the 107 degrees. Great video guys.
Thank you for swinging by !
DANG ! Yer Killing It !!! I Have to Dail My 140 In !! The Frist Time Out Found some Good Gold , The next few times very little . I Might be running to Flat , Have to rethink the Angle of the Tray ....
GL&HH Greg
We have been drywashing a long time. Air volume, feed rate , and tray angle all play a role in good recovery. The number one bad thing I see people do is push way to much ait through the 140. It doesent take much to run that machine.
@@IBRAKEFORBEDROCK Thanks for the advice and that it cooling off I'll spend more time watching it run than shoveling it full so I can get out of the Heat ! 👍🇺🇸 VOTE
Love That Kari Lake for Arizona Governor
This was so much fun. Finding gold is the best cure for depression. Lol.
I fight serious depression every day man. Yes nugget hunting helps a little
Nice,you guys are having fun and getting great gold...awsome video
Thanks 👍 I really appreciate you stopping by
Good stuff and the video was good too .the micro gold adds up.its a great time to be in the desert. The food just taste better after a hard day's work see ya the next one.
Agreed !
I sure hope they missed a bunch for your sake very interesting though and I hope your pans are Heavy 😁👊👊✌️
Wherever u guys were where the birds were singing really cool they were trying to lead you to something or away
Thanks for the comment !
You guys rock.
Thank so much !
My wife found a bottle just like that one while dredging in Montana this summer. Wish I could post a picture of it. Perfect condition from the 1860's!
That would be so cool ! Wish you could post it too !
That was totally awesome🔥🔥💯💯💯
Thank you so much !
awesome gold i'm headed to AZ in February again to get out of the snow. do you still have the claim for sale quartsite area?
As of right now, yes we have 2-40 acre claims for sale in Quartzsite.
It might be pain killer, Nitro 🤣
Good gold mining video
Glad you enjoyed it, and thanks for swinging by !
Wow! That is an opium bottle. If it says 'Davis' on the front, it is was made between 1860 and 1900. The bottle is worth about $50 and $75 bucks. there are several other manufacturers, I'm really only familiar with Davis.
Really neat ! Yes it says davis pain killer . It has been sitting on a shelf and the liquid inside has almost evaporated.
Where ever there was known decent gold, it's hard to find ground that wasn't already dug. I call that fine gold "gold dust".
Thanks for the input !
Sweet video! My buddy found 7 bottles like the first one you found full of mercury. You never know what you can find. Keep up the great work!
Wow , so cool !
Mercury is dangerous
Big operation. Actual mining big time.
Hope I earned your subscription ! Thank you
The gold was nice BUT.....the pocket knife was the best ground score, next to the mystery bottle of liquid
Thank you !
Can you guys explain the tunnels some more? I don't really understand... I see these tiny holes you are showing, maybe a fist size, but I don't see any tunnels where a person can walk in? What am I missing??
Yes show & explain more about the holes!
I agree, I should explain things better .....They are voids left by the miners back in the 1800`s
Thanks for sharing another great video guys. Is this one of your claims that is up for sale?
No, but the same thing could be done on any of the placer claims we have for sale.
Well that's good to know because I'm seriously considering buying a claim
AWESOME" from Idaho!!!!
Thank you so much !
Thanks
No, thank you ! We appreciate it
That's how you find the gold. Way to go.
Thank you ! yes indeed
Looks like an Aussie set up
Really ? I want to see
@@IBRAKEFORBEDROCK there was a U tube video in Australia where the guy had 4 keens , a hopper and grizzly and was feeding it with a bobcat. The dust was really bad
@@tombeilman5579 I may have seen it .Nice looking set up if it worked properly. The onewe use has been used for many seasons and has been modified as needed.
The biggest issue with dust is that is gets in the bloweres for the dry washer air supply and cloggs the cloth from the inside. We have found ways to help mitigate this.
what part of Arizona are ya in? I see the saguaro. I used to live in tubac just north of Rio Rico. spent a buncha time in green valley[Tucson] and Carefree by Phoenix.i miss Arizona so bad and exp since I got the gold fever AFTER moving to Florida. where there's NO GOLD!
keep it up
My pops lives in Green Valley ......Nice country down there . We are north of Phoenix
I didn't know dry boxes were a thing. How does it compare to a wet sluice box?
I did some gold mining north of Circle Alaska in my younger years. Normal sluice box with pond water as the source. I'm guessing the reason we don't use dry sluice boxes is that the dirt is moist. And in desert climates the dirt is dry so you can pull this off. Very cool, learned something new.
Howdy , and thank you for watching !
Yes , in environments when the ground is moist nearly, or all year round, a dry washer will not work. The best recovery method will be a wet system .
However, here in the desert the Dry Washers Started being invented in the 1800`s and were wildly successful in most areas where the ground was dry and no water was available.
Recovery with a dry washer is better on fine gold than a wet system, and it takes significantly less equipment and parts to operate. They use air to separate the heavy material from the lighter material.
What? No final cleanup? 😂great video guys and thanks for posting.
Oh man, we have to reserve some anonimity ......Its was a significant amount
Most of the talk is about the job and the work is yet to be completed.
what you find...a chrysalis:))
I Really like the concept and the content in this vid, you got me very interested and I will for sure follow your adventure. I recon you don't need water permit... anyway really nice video! Greetings from Sweden mining Finnish Lapland ⛏️ ✨️ 🇫🇮 🇸🇪
Water permit ? no sir , and thank you for watching !
@@IBRAKEFORBEDROCK just kidding when I mentioned water permit but what permits acquires for your drymining concept, just curious if this could be done at our claim tough it maybe to wet condition.
@@outnorthprospecting Yes , it must be fairly dry. So this takes place in our summer
I won't say your lucky cause you make your own luck and you guys work your tails off . How do I know we'll I don't see no feathers sticken out your back side . Great video .
Thanks so much ! we really appreaciate the comment !
Well I'll be Danged.
Very interesting site indeed.
I'm almost OFF the edge of my seat watching this VideO loosing my patience 🙃
Very Cool.
Best comment ever ! Thank you so much, and I hope I earned that subscription !
@@IBRAKEFORBEDROCK
Thumbs up.
Yes absolutely.
Liked and Subscribed
Even added a heart ✔️🤣😄👍
That looks like a fun time working hard! Nice mix of mesh sizes getting caught.....the fly poo seems collect on the silicone could it be sticking or settling out in slack air? Those are nice bottles...there are videos out there turning the broken ones into shot glasses and other cool things.
Thank you so much as always ...I`b be glad to sent you a half grammer nugget for some apples.....arizonagoldrush@gmail.com
@@IBRAKEFORBEDROCK 🤝🍻
Good job guys. Awesome finds and killer gold. Did you ever figure out what was in that bottle ?
After some research, it was likely a mixture of alcohol and opium. Commonly sold by missionaries in the late 1800s as a cure all
@@IBRAKEFORBEDROCK , right on. I love finding old bottles and relics from the past. Great job as always 👌👊
Gold is gold micro or grams. Nice video guys
@@IBRAKEFORBEDROCK "by some research" ....ok which one of you tasted it and had your tongue go numb ? Lol
2 big kids playing in the dirt
🤣 so true ! Thanks for stopping by
@@IBRAKEFORBEDROCK looks like fun
Awesome job, it’s incredible just to watch, I couldn’t imagine being there, wait, yes I could. Lol, congratulations on finding all the gold and cool stuff.
Glad you enjoyed it , and thanks for watching !
Perry Davis veg pain killer. The original Opioid crises. 1870 - 1890 That is what 1 of Bing's answers said.
Awesome, thank you so much . We found several peppersauce bottles from the 1874 area too
Yep, Laudanum is redish brown liquid, just like what you have.
Pretty Ausome. Y'all got a beAutiful spot there. Personally I love the dry-washers. Speaking of which, I have a Gold King for sale. I'm in Lake Havasu so if you're ever up in this area give me a shout out. Don't have any legs for it, loaned it to a "friend" and had to go pick it up. Guess he ran over them.
Omg ! Id be so pissed off ......Thanks for stopping by !
Common medicines used in 1800s include:
Painkillers such as opium, morphine, phenacetin, and acetanilide.
Great Video Guys...
I read the mix in that bottle was alcohol & opium . Missionaries used to sell it in the late 1800`s as a cure-all Really cool stuff!
@@IBRAKEFORBEDROCK wow what a cool find!
It looks like you guys have found the hot spot, great video.
Yes , and thank you for swinging by !
NICE! Some serious work. Don't your day jobs miss you guys? LOL
oops ! I knew I forgot to call someone ... Thanks for stopping by !
Your a funny dude
I saw a finger when you all found the bottle of pain killer? I think an old timer is still there.
ewwwww lol Thanks for tuning in !
Do you guys rent the loader? That's awesome and a serious way to find some shiny!
@@duanebartlett4885 that one was a rental. The new one is not a rental
Just ran across your video. sweet finds. Just went thru my first season mining in montana with barely any experience haha. But now i can run a 35k excavator and pan down some gold fairly quickly.. Even with all the toys it's a lot of work but even more fun. What state are ya in? I've never dry washed...we have micro gold here mostly.
Thanks for the comments, in this spot is in Arizona.
Damn those old timers for takin your gold before you got there.
They knew what they were doing !
107 ounces😳… oh that was degrees my bad but you probably got more than 107 ounces that spot is great bummer the old timers beat you to it but I imagine there are spots they missed and when you get to those you’ll just roll in the nuggets. Great adventure thanks for sharing see you on the next one 👍🏼👊🏼 p.s. how do you check your tailings for big nuggets I saw you just put it in a pile are you spreading it out and detecting it to get the bigger ones? I’m sure there’s a few there….
Didnt detect the tailings that much , regretibly ..... next time ...project not over yet
@@IBRAKEFORBEDROCK yikes 😳 glad to hear your not done there has to be some larger nuggets there especially since that one big piece got past the screen. Of course when your finding that much gold and working that hard it would be an easy thing to let slip your mind. That dry washer is a monster and Im sure there wasn’t enough time or man power between feeding it and mucking out the tailings to beep the tailings here’s hoping you find a couple half ounce chunks in them 👍🏼👊🏼
@@48thstateprospecting Lots of trash too , but i think it would be worth it in discrimination and hope its accurate, sometimes it is lol
Glad that wasn't a bottle of nitro left behind by the old timers.
Agreed! 😬
They call that a "quack bottle".
Its true ! Back then miners lived out in the mountains with little access to Dr`s ... A little opium & alcohol could cure anything ha ha
Man he dumped out hella gold when he started to do the pan he vacuumed up hell of gold so hopefully they go through the shop vac definitely probably double what they end up with or even more has been carelessly misplaced.
Lol, There was over 2 ounces in that riffle tray, I guess a couple tenths of a gram over the pan wontmake a huge difference. I do believe some gold gets stuck in the vacuum hose , so we try to keep that clean. We`ve been doing this for many years and dont miss much.
So Awesome!!! You guys are one of my favorite youtubers... Please don't stop... Everything about this I loved. I didn't want it to end... Can't wait for the next one and eventually the weigh in... I can only imagine...
Thank you so much ! I`m not sure we are going to show the full clean up but we are showing a little along the way. We have to have some anonimity
1870s Perry Davis Pain Killer
Correct ! Thank you so much . You guys know way more than I do about relics !
@@IBRAKEFORBEDROCK My jaw fell open when I saw that. I just love old glass :)
@@GothicCinderz I noticed ! and be well
How do you know if that is nitroglycerin or not. Not a great idea to mess with an unknown substance in a bottle in an old mine.
Well it’s been sitting on my counter for a month, and over half has evaporated. I’m guessing it’s just the opium left in there ?
@@IBRAKEFORBEDROCK okay, it's just that when you found it you just pulled it out of the ground not knowing what it was yet.
@@m.waygoner8201 true 😲
The bottle would be from the 1930s I beleive
Given the specifics of the bottle , and some research , and the other bottles we found, it was late 1800`s , past 1874
Mucking shovel
Sounds like a lot of work ! ha ha
@@IBRAKEFORBEDROCK i. Never really minded. It. Unless there was zero gold. Looking. Back.now..DAM.IT.your right. Lol
that pain killer is most likely cocaine, it was legal and common
I hope you had an approved plan of operations by the BLM. If not, then you might want to think about pulling this video, because if the BLM found out there was unapproved use of mechanized equipment and use of "heavy equipment" they would arrest you on several criminal Federal Felony Charges. That would be bad on us subscribed viewers too, because of the possible lack of future videos. Just looking out for your best interest. Thank you for the channel, I Brake for Bedrock, I enjoy watching it.
Thanks for the heads up !
Davis bottle about $10.00
With the original liquid in it ? Gosh thats dissapointing 😢
Often old/injured mules were slaughtered and eaten/smoked for provisions...
Wow !! Thanks for the input 😎
I gave up on my drywasher. I just think you lose too much gold vs wet system...
Its actually the opposite. When a dry washer is set up and running properly, angle,level, air flow,feed rate, pitch of hopper etc. they are remarkable at gold recovery.
A lot of people give up on them, plus they are very labor intensive.
Ya, you drink that…probably laudanum. Two good pulls on that bottle and you’ll be chewing clouds for a week!
Looks like a badger hole lmao
COol
Thanks for stopping by ! We appreciate it
It's pain killer. You put it in your eyes... In case your wife is ugly.
So you think that already mined this location
They mined the placer in the late 1800`s
looks like constalaiton
I`m not really an astronomy nerd but cool ! Thanks for the comment !

Ha ha ,thanks for stopping by !
Omg two hour video finding a bottle
Its not even 20 minutes , and theres gold too ! lol thanks for tuning in !
Don’t drink it silly
You wont believe what we “found”. Correct it..
I changed it to " You will believe what we found" Thanks for the heads up !
They ate the mule and threw every scrap into a dry hole.
Ewwwww....But that was a theory
@@IBRAKEFORBEDROCK Educated guess.
