Great Video, Steve here one of the owners of the Placer Pete Claim. We are glad you had a great time at the claim. We would love to join you next time out just let us know when you head on out there. Please as always be kind to the claim, watch out for desert tortoises, and other critters. Be safe and have plenty of water with you. Also, please remember, to be on the claim you must be a GPAA/LDMA or PCSC Member. I know you will help us keep the place clean, please fill in your holes and please don't be a claim jumper! Have a wonderful time and may color always be in your pan.
If you wouldn't mind passing along to your friend it was 0.54g for the one sled not 2. I was pretty doped up on cold meds when we spoke but his sarcasm was noted. It also was not this video it was a later trip. Look for the blue pan. Nice meeting you.
That's amazing that there was so much black sand the drywasher stopped flowing. It looked like your riffle tray was at a 15 degree angle, I'd adjust it to 25 or 30 degrees to get that paydirt flowing again. I'd also empty the riffle tray at least once an hour.
Most of the gold is in the top portion when you get to the decomposed granite layer dig into the dg about 3 to 6”. I usually run for about 20 to 30 mins and do a clean out.
Dang dude.. gosh I hate that. It happens so suddenly like a evil anti gold ninja! Looks like it was a great trip! Thanks for the good work and always pointing out what you are digging! ✌️PT
It was nice to finally meet you, I missed you on Sunday on my way out, Eugene said you did a run to town real quick. Let me know when y’all plan on going out there again I’ll get in on the group dig!!!
That looked like a great outing! Crazy about the bees! I think collecting your cons to take home is much better than cleaning up while there. Gives you more time to process! Just do a test pan from time to time to make sure the gold count is still ok. As far as your question about the layers, man lots of it looks good. I think the only way to know for sure is to dig into the side where nobody has before, make a nice clean “ slice” in the side and pan the same amount of dirt from each layer. Probably 10 pans from top to bottom. Then figure out if there is an actual pay layer (maybe take the samples home so you can pan without the bees - lol). I’d guess on top of each caliche layer and.. on the bottom where it was super hard pack... For the bottom, get out the shop vac (there are cheap 12 volt models) or a soft and hard brush and a dust pan. If that layer at the bottom of the hole was that hard, I’ll guess the previous diggers left gold sitting on it as well. Probably lots just sitting there since it can’t go down any further. Just some thoughts and maybe ideas for some videos. Great video as always!
Another great video. I'm sure everyone has lost a little gold at one point or another. We need to get back out there and make up for the loss.😁 Thanks for sharing my brotha.
Wtg on getting out there.. seems like decent looking gold ... gonna have to get up there to petes one day.. ol garbage disposal had a shiney dinner.. thats too bad..
Holcomb would be good. Not sure when but If I can get something together I will let you know. If you have FB send me a message there so I can contact you.
Many channels I've seen use the 24k spot price and the weight of the gold they recover to calculate the value of their efforts. That greatly over states what they think they ended up with because Gold in nature is never 24k. 18k is typically very high with 14k and even 10k more typical. You don't play that kind of deception. However, that snake cameo some time ago was very cute! Lol. Nice to see another video from you. Best wishes.
what's up boss got my feet sun burned good that day was nice and cool got me a NEW gold monster might be a little warm to go there now need to go some where to play with my gold monster was out in the san bernadino forest horsing around was sweeping over the $8 in placer gold I have (.16) and it was sounding off I used shane's settings I was using his in rattle snake canyon (yucca valley) just gotta find a few flakes was great to meet you talk to you sooner or later

Thanks, we are all GPAA members and we always clean up our camps and digs when we head out so no worries.
Please pass along my gratitude to whomever built that wooden platform. It is perfect for tent camping.
@@Oidium45 Fantastic, always love to see our friends at the GPAA out on the claim!
@@Oidium45 It sure is, you are welcome to use that place. That is, if we aren't out there LOL

Thanks for the shout out !! Steven and Justin had a blast fun dig!

Gotta get out before the real heat hits, keep finding those treasure
Do you think when the heat comes working at night when it's much cooler would be the thing to do?
It was nice to finally meet you, I missed you on Sunday on my way out, Eugene said you did a run to town real quick. Let me know when y’all plan on going out there again I’ll get in on the group dig!!!
"real quick" took 4 hours.. I will be sure to hit you up next time we are in the area.

The bees collect the salt from your sweat, and use it to cure their honey.
Did you previously know this had been dug? If "yes" why redig it???
The claim owners and BLM require the holes to be refilled so it is hit or miss.
I'm down 2 go ill buy me!! a dry washer/ and high banker with my dredge etc just to get oz of gold or more a day
what's up boss got my feet sun burned good that day was nice and cool got me a NEW gold monster might be a little warm to go there now need to go some where to play with my gold monster was out in the san bernadino forest horsing around was sweeping over the $8 in placer gold I have (.16) and it was sounding off I used shane's settings I was using his in rattle snake canyon (yucca valley) just gotta find a few flakes was great to meet you talk to you sooner or later
You can do quite well with that gold monster up there near placer pete. Check out Jordans vids.
