- Canadian gold mining at its finest with @ANDYTHRAXX
Join me on an exciting adventure as I visit @ANDYTHRAXX placer gold mine on the beautiful Vancouver Island in Canada. In this informative video, Andy takes us behind the scenes and shares the intricate details of his gold mining operation, which includes the use of heavy machinery like excavators and a state-of-the-art washplant.
Watch closely as we witness the mining process in action, from excavating the rich paydirt to feeding it through the washplant, where the valuable gold is separated from the surrounding material. The entire process is a mesmerizing blend of technology and nature's treasures.
But the real excitement comes at the end when we perform the ultimate test - the gold clean-up. Together, we collect the precious gold concentrates and eagerly calculate the results. Did our two hours of hard work yield enough gold to make this venture worthwhile? The answer might surprise you.
Join us in the discussion about whether Vancouver Island holds enough gold to sustain a small-scale placer mining operation. Your insights and opinions matter, so please share your thoughts in the comments below.

A lot of us were getting worried as Andy has not updated his channel for a long time, great to see he is OK.
Amen I’ve been thinking he might have been caught in the fires.
Andy is mining am sure they are getting video to use but why not have Dan Hurd Jason Pauly etc come visit get to see and do a clean up and even treasure hunt patience is always key but so hard to do lmao
I was wandering to and hoping that he did not quit GOLD mining glad to see he's still at it.
I’m assuming Andy is putting in more time mining and less filming to maximize returns.
I've been looking for a new video for awhile.
Andy is such a great guy; thanks Jason a fun video.
Tell Andy he needs to upload! Been waiting months to see if this season is blowing away his last season! Love seeing all of you guys working together on collabs! Keep it up!
MBMMLLC has produced very interesting & informative content on his channel,definitely a quality channel that is entertaining & educational,much respect for jason
Hard Hats off to you Andy! You have the passion and commitment to pull off full-time mining. We're looking forward to talking in troy ounces too.
That mini trommel is really cool.
Looking good. Would a feeder hopper work better to feed your plant
Man, I been checking Andy's channel for months! I'm glad he's still around!
Good morning, Jason and Andy ...⛏⚒⛏
I knew Andy was way too busy being successful to put out an update. Thanks for your visit. Whoo hoo Andy, you are an inspiration!
Awsome, Andy is a nice fella🤠
Way better content than that fake reality TV gold mining crap. Thanks so much for the content. These are the guys that need to be supported, not those actors on TV.
Definitely love the setup!
Good to see You visiting Andy at his mine.
Not bad for a couple of hours processing. It may be time for
you to build a trommel !
373👍's up mbmllc thank you for sharing 😮
Awesome to see Andy is still going at it. Miss your videos Andy. Great video, Jason!
Andy has been my favorite non-tv miner for years. Actually, let me give you my list, 1. Tony Beets, 2. Parker Schnable, 3. AndyThraxx.
hey andy if you keep having the fuel filter plug up you need drain the main tank and clean it out. i think there also might be a filter in the tank to. possibly. if there is its probably a screen filter and it might be broken. water gets in the fuel and rusts stuff. princess auto or harbor freight have this little vacuum fluid extractor that has a big tank on it. it works great and is fast. they also work greak for hydraulic fluid. what if you also made a bucket washer? you would need a way to catch the water when the bucket is not there or a remote switch to turn the water off and on. the bucket being pre rinsed would help clean the rocks better and to get the material out easier. you would probably need a third pump or just one bigger one, if you can find a fixable used one everything is sooo much money these days. good luck dude i wish you the best of luck.
Sweet deal seeing you two working together. Right on Jason and Andy 😅
Andy is a badass 100%
Awe man! You rock! Thanks that made my day. 😊
Yes! Been wondering about Andy!
😁👋👍👍👏👏💕🙏🏻
Thank you Jason for sharing another great episode with us. I think it's really cool that you and Andy. Make such great equipment, real game changers. In the the harvesting of gold
Jason thank you for putting this video out. Really good stuff.
I'm glad to see Andy back. I was wondering where he's been. We always kept extra fuel filters behind the seat. If it doesn't want to run at full throttle, it's usually the fuel filter. Air filters are a little too big to stick behind the seat on a big machine, but we had one nearby just in case. Keep up the good work Andy and get that shiny!
Good working my friends 🎉
Why isn’t Andy posting videos? I like watching his content and would watch.
He's probably embarrassed of the low gold count he gets. And it's easier to just have other people spend the money and time to help out and record his mining content
@@dannyauger7223 Or if he is raking in ounces why waste time videoing it? Better to keep production up to cover overhead and make a profit at the end of the season. You make hay when the sun is shining. You can always edit and post in the winter. Or sometimes you don't want he tax man up your backside either. UA-cam is for the guys who make more from ads than actual production.
Thanks for introducing us to many different miners. I love Collaboration videos
You’re a really dedicated go-getter, Andy and I hope that your claim gives you all the rewards that your hard work so richly deserves.
Great to seeAndy doing well. Have been missing his updates. Congrat’s Andy!!
Couple of good guys nice to see you guys together
Caramel chocolates and sluicing hahahahaha. What a great video! Love that you got to visit the LEGEND ANDY! One of the kindest people in our beloved hobby :) Hope you had a blast with him Jason, keep up the amazing adventures! All the best 🤠
I've been following Andy just as long as I been following you so I've watched him get that place set up and running with loads of problems but it's great to see all the hard work paying off! Great video as always 👍👌❤️💛💚
Great video! Fun watching you and Andy play in the dirt! I would love to come along and help!
Good mornin' y'all!!! ☕☕☕☕
Nice to see how the other side does it! Fun to watch you digging in to a new batch of pay dirt. Thanks for sharing Jason.
My two favorite miners, my lucky day! Andy, been waiting for your next video. Both of you get a like before I even start your videos! Shaker table coming to the Thraxx cleanup system? Good stuff guys.
Thanks for this video, we don't see as much content from Andy as we would like.
Would have been nice if you Had let us all know.... We could have done a meet and greet at some time while you were on the island........
Right on Andy is killing it it takes a lot of know how and balls to build your own stuff and live your dream. It’s possible one of your fans on the excavator isn’t working and it’s getting vapor locked or if it only happens when the fuel is low there could be a piece of plastic in the fuel tank that’s interfering with the pump either way very cool Andy congrats looking forward to the shaker table. and thanks Jason for sharing see you on the next one 👍🏼👊🏼
It's really cool seeing this through your eyes Jason, cuz Andy is clearly a really smart dude who knows his stuff but the Canuckians tend to produce content that yeah has some info but is really meant to entertain. Hearing the numbers and terminology discussed exactly as you guys talked about it, sort of like a fly on the "wall" (or a tree or whatever), is very cool, nerdy stuff
I love both of your enthusiasm & humble attitudes. Blessed are you guys for doing what you love. It really comes through in this video!
@Andythraxx it is sure good to see the UA-camrs checking in on you. I can't wait to see your next video. Great video Jason. Thank you for showing us Andy is still around.
I'm so happy to see Andy mining that trommel man so cool 😎👍💯🇺🇲
Best video yet !
Very cool
Can't wait see Andy's new video😎
Jason and Andy a'workin' at the mine; those 1 ounce nuggies are really hard to find; regarding nature's elements or what was thrown their way; they both came out with smiles as as the cleanup made their day! Awesome video! Keep up the hard work! Blessings from Alabama ❤️
Sweet Home Alabama!
It is a blast to see interaction between you and others( Dan, Andy and more) working together and having fun shows the viewers that working together is not only possible but fun too. Being able to process the tailings also helps Andy have the knowledge o how we his system is working. Great job and keep doing episodes lie tthis.
Nice sir thanks for sharing this six stars
If Jason shows up at any YT gold channel. I’m gonna watch it. Thank you for doing stuff like this, it makes the content you make and everyone else makes so much more, ❤
Thanks Brent. Good to know that Andy is still alive and sluice'n.
NICE JasoN & AndY! Good luck GUYS! Cheers JJ
Been following Andy for some time now, and as others mentioned below noticed he hadn't posted in a while. I think this was an awesome collaboration, you two gel so well together, and seeing Andy smile along with you made me smile too. I can't wait for part two, that should be fantastic, thanks, Jason!
So cool to see you out there with Andy! The mine sure looks different than when I was there last!! Can't wait for the new videos!
Jason, thanks for taking us out into the field and showing just what a one man operation can be capable of. Please thank Andy for all of us and I hope the two of you might do some more colabs together. Mighty Shiny.
Jason won’t scam Andy like the other you tuber did with specimen pieces. Unsubscribed with that video. Jason doesn’t need to scam his fellow miners. Enjoyed this video.
That was a great video. Thanks for sharing your day 👍😊
That was a fun day. Good to see andy up and running. He had alot of things he was dialing in.
Cool thing is i follow both channels for years now .. very cool to see the collab and very curious about the shaker table results.
Pretty good effort getting a good performing wash plant right out of the gates .
It can be a lot of trial and error to build one that works well and is easy to dial in .
Of course , it may be a liability on different ground , which makes placer such a challenge .
Good to see that Andy is getting on the gold. He has worked hard at getting to this place. Nice to see hard work rewarded.
So glad Andy's doing ok! Been concerned for quite a while.
Another good show thanks
Pretty sure this is the guy that found that 15 oz nugget we saw on Dan hurds short the other day!!! Congrats on the successful operation Andythraxx!!!!
Great video. Two of my favorite UA-camrs.
Can’t wait to see more!
Love watching your videos 📷
Being disabled I can't do much more than some panning. We're thinking about buying some pay dirt but we don't want to get ripped off
My grandsons are 14 and 15 and we're going to North Carolina and the area for trip next summer.
Thanks for sharing it gives me a chance to get my mind off of this world and relax
Again thank you young man.
Wow. Nice to see Andy. Miss him. Love his videos. Nice to see you too. Lol.
Andy's alive! Yay!
Nice video great operation.
Really interesting thanks for sharing
COUPLE OF COOL KIND DUDES. SPREAD THE WORD
Great day! So cool of Andy to let you help lol!
Hey Jason I’m a canadian working in a gold mine in australia for a company called Newmont. Raised in nanaimo pretty cool video thanks this amazing love the bush mining
Great Vid, cant wait to see Andy Reach Bedrock.
Thanks for a great video Jason and even more so good to see you Andy and that you are going great. Looking forward to seeing part 2 and come on Andy let's see a video pleeaassee.
I wonder if you could get a belt feeder machine with its own hopper, so you could use the belt and hopper to ration the feed of the wash plant, and you could dump as much material as the hopper could contain and use the belt as your feed rate controller. something on tracks with its own power plant and mobility control from remote so you could extend your reach. something to consider eh, though always about the cost and all huh. I love seeing people collaborate like this hehe.
Great video thanks for sharing. Really cool setup
Awesome Jason:) glad u n Andy hit it hard!
Very impressed with the steady as she goes operation, very little streaa and damage, 😊.
TELL ANDY TO POST MORE VIDEOS!!! Lol, but still… We’ve all been wondering how he’s doing… Great video.
Lot of good hard work
Andy has passion 👌 Awesome video Jason 👍
great team, and good gold life is good
Love the community! Hope yourstay was fun!
That’s a cool little machine at that the end there for the cleanup.
Great to see my two favourite miners together! Wasn't sure if Andy fell in a hole and couldn't get out. It's been awhile!
Hello Jason, a friend of mine has an 36 ton excavator who will dig a pit about 20mts x 50mts and removes all to the sides until he gets say 2 feet off the bottom where it will be detected, after detecting that layer he will remove 6 inches and put to the side's of the pit and will detect it again till he gets to the pipe-clay, a lot of tiny gold bits will be left behind and the pit will be filled in, this process is ongoing. Cheers, from the Golden Triangle Victoria.
Great collaboration.
Love both of your channels. Good video
Man, I wish Andy posted more often. He makes great videos.
Andy has an amazing voice....
Thanks both of you !! Great times
Отличная работа. Очень позитивные парни. Все зделанно грамотно. Я хочу с вами работать. Я умею искать золото.
Wow Andy have been waiting to see your new video
Nice to see you guys working as a team. Question for you Jason. During the winter,can you tarp a section of the ground and keep it warm overnight? ( heated hoses ) with a tarp on top. Then, dry crush the dirt,then dump truck it to a indoor location and sluice it. What do you think? Or is the expense too much? Let me know. Thanks.
🇨🇦👍😎
Great to see you collaborate with Andy
Awesome video Jason. 👍
Thanks from Australia
So funny, I thought, from the thumbnail, I was clicking on an Andy video, imagine my surprise to hear "I'm Jason, from Mt Baker Mining & Metals!"
Great video
