The Ol' Trusty Spot ⛏️ Gippsland Gold Prospecting
Вставка
- Опубліковано 10 вер 2024
- Headed back to my trusty spot in Gippsland for some more crevicing in search of pickers. Also tried the detector (SDC2300) up and down the creek with no results. No worries. What came out of the crevices made it good day spent prospecting with some good gold for my efforts. This spot just keeps on giving and so I just keep returning. Stick around until the end to see the weigh in. Thanks. Enjoy!
Thanks for watching and please remember to LIKE, COMMENT, SHARE and SUBSCRIBE...it helps a lot.
Good old Noojee trestle bridge.
Beautiful place 🍻
love your gold dryer
Nice! You got to be happy with the end results,I know i would be .Thanks for taking us along again.
Certainly am 😊
Hello there,this comment comes good 18 months late, I would fan gravel and muck downstream in that running water and pick bits off the bedrock with snuffle bottle. It's very difficult to lift flat bits off smooth rock.All You need is 2 lt plastic juice bottle with one label cut out and smaller one washed without scraping the plastic.Leave top on and look under water through that.Have locking tweezers for "pickers" and You will get every colour without lengthy digging and panning, regards George
Nice work mate 👍
Nice gold for a day of panning.
I think so 👍
I'm really enjoyin your videos. Love the creeks etc as we don't have them out in western Queensland. Nice gold take again. Thanks.
thanks very much . enjoying your vids . gives me some thing to keep me interested . i am in Qld down on the south border and i seem to only get out about once every 4 years prospecting for half a day . if i lived down further south i would be into it every chance i got . maybe i should move i hate the heat up here anyway .
You are right about the heat.
Very nice mate, good showing of colour....:) I think it's about time for myself and Kiara to hit the creek for a pan... :)
Yeah its about that time ey. Perfect for sluicing while theres still water.
Very nice!
Hi DFG, Thanks for the great day. I have been going out and I would be gobsmacked to come home with that much colour. One day I keep on saying. Dennis
bloody beauty mate, nice work.
Definitely can't complain ey
Looks like along Thompsons River, i know those leeches anywhere
Now I am ready for tomorrow. My creeks have been dry for 6 weeks. Hope I can get a picker tomorrow. Need that jolt. Nice going.
I hope you can too. Good luck!
Nice work!
I gotta feeling I've panned in that creek - you are getting more than I did :)
Havent found much in this creek except for the crevices so it could be pretty easy to miss. Lucky for me I didnt :)
Pretty sweet dude.🤗
Yep got to love that spot
Good job, beautiful pieces! Looks like you had better luck with the leeches then last time ; )
Yeah only got one miniscule one on my arm so no worries there.
hey just want to say, i've learnt a lot from watching ur videos.. thanks for doing that !
I am almost ready to go check out gembrook or around cockatoo area
No worries, glad they helped. Hope tou have some good luck!
Great mate!!
Cheers!
Nice work with those pickers mate good video ,I own a mine lab gpx and it detects a lot deeper than 30cm its a great detector it also picks up very small targets.
Hmmm. I replied to this previously but my reply has disappeared. Anyways, yeah the GPX's are where its at (well, I suppose "where its at" might be the GPZ these days). The GPX4500 or the SDC2300 are what Im thibking for when Im ready to purchase.
Good stuff m8!!! Love your vids!
Cheers mate!
Good pickers, but the small flakes not bad as well knowing flakes stacks better than course gold he he he. Wish i had that out of one pen ;) Cheers
Cheers. These small flakes definitely add up...nice and chunky
God is sure mighty fond of you... You're truly blessed and highly favored... Thanks for sharing your awesome video. I really enjoyed it thanks for taking time out to do it... Be blessed... BBE.... 😊😳👍👍
Nah mate. I just put the effort in and it pays. But thank you for putting the time in to watch 👍
nice one bro !
Cheers!
Was that $19.38 value of gold? .45 of a gram at $43 per gram ?
In USD, yeah. Not my best day there...but also not my worst.
In the states they call them pickers nugget's!!!
What part of Gippsland were you in?
West Gippsland
Top shit man those pickers look nice keep it up man
Did you run them over the sdc to see if it would pick them up ?
Cheers dude. Yeah I did but they were too deep I think. Its hard to tell from the vid but those crevices were up to 30cm deep. Maube someone more experienced could find em I dunno. But I ran it over the area when I arrived and couldnt discern a signal.
Diggin' For Gold what sensitivity were you running the sdc at ?
Still a nice amount tho !! Let me know when your coming up here next I got a few spots for ya 👌
Two mostly...like while searching up and down the creek. Then just had a play around and tried three and four at that rock section from the video. I dunno what I'm doin lol.
Hopefully coming up that way within the month. I'll let ya know...
Diggin' For Gold ifs the ground is trashy 2 -3 if the ground is clear I normally have it set nice and I so I can here the slightest change in tones!!
Diggin' For Gold I had a full demo on the sdc at laanecorrie on the weekend so now I know what I'm doing 👌
Nice stuff you're into. Wondering if that SDC would sound off on those pickers. Cheers.
Thanks. And yeah it does, but they were a little too deep for me to hear unfortunately.
Diggin' For Gold I've been considering buying one so I'm just curious on its capabilities.
Probably best to judge it from people who are more experienced than me. A more experienced user may have been able to set it up better and find something at this spot. I read the faint deep targets can be hard to hear. From what I've read and seen though the SDC2300 is extremely capable. Despite not finding anything with it yet, its still on the top of my list for detectors to get.
Two toes explains about how to crevice detect at different angles.very interesting knowledge.
Sounds like some priceless knowledge. I'll have to do some learning before I get the detector again.
Good stuff man!did u try the detector over the pan!
Thanks. Yeah it picked up these bits on the surface no worries...down in the crevice at about 30cm it was a different story unfortunately
dredge and a crow bar ...mmmmmm....

Great job what's your total for the year so far
Cheers. I honestly have no idea though. Not a great deal though. I don't always weigh it up, and if I don't film then I almost never do. And I certainly havent weighed it all up. But I'd guesstimate maybe 10g-ish
I've watched 100's of hrs on prospecting and other treasure hunting videos on UA-cam and am canny clued up but just need to get out there.but my health isn't the best so it's good to see other people getting colour.
Well I hope things turn around for you so you can get out there and put all that watching to good use and get some for yourself.
Diggin' For Gold I've got hme bone condition from birth and it doesn't get better but when the weather is good that helps a lot.it's a shame the weather is so crap all the time!
Nice chunky stuff mate, there's a very cool gold story out of Noojee, google "Noojee & Dick Belpoole. Great yarn.
Cheers mate. I'll have to check it out
Yo mate. Cant find an email pr way to contact ya. Id like ya to print out a sluice for me if ya could...
Ey mate. You can send me a message from my about page on my channel. But yeah honestly I'm not real keen to go making and charging people for these as the quality could be better. But for under $200 (less than some sluices anyways) you could get your own 3D printer and then make one for under $20.
Hey there buddy, i am pretty sure you cant prospect there, i may be wrong, hope i,m wrong. I lived there, some of the best country in the world hey... When are we going to meet up stranger......
Yeah mate you're wrong. I can definitely prospect here. And yeah ypu daid you'd hit me up when your detector is up and running...
have you ever wondered why this is your glory hole...all the pics shown on your video show all the cracks running across the flow of water...i would never leave that area...WOW... seeems that run with the water vs. seams that run across the water flow...2nd is the 1st winner...lol good show eh..
Yeah its good to know I've got it up my sleave if I'm having a dry run. But I do like to explore new areas so only come back every now and again.
