This video contains my finds as l follow a run of specimen gold and try to find the source, it is the final video of my 2017 gold hunt, thanks for watching.
Hi Russell,
Brilliant specimen. Col & I loved all the 2017 videos as we have all your previous years.
You inspire all of us to keep going.
It’s a great life.
Thanks Cindy, glad you enjoyed this seasons vid,s, best luck to you and Col for the 2018 season, cheers NM.
I totally agree with Cindy, I was disappointed when you said it was the last in this series, but there is always next year to look forward to!.
Yeah l go pretty wild on that editing button to get 5 months worth of video into just a couple of hours, its amazing how much l just repeat myself, anyway next season is just 3 months away so l am already thinking of how l could mix it up a bit, cheers NM.
Thanks for sharing. Your running commentary really helps me understand how you operate and how you process the daily progress. So helpful. Good luck next year, sounds like a bachoe could come in handy. Mike
No worries Mike, happy to share the great Aussie backyard, if l could get a claim on this area an excavator would be top of the list, cheers NM.
A true Nugget Magnet for sure. Just when i think my gold fever is in check you go and flash all that shiny yellow all up my face hehe and those specie's WOW. Can't wait until the 2018 season and if we run into each other the first beer is on me. Cheers Nick :)
Thanks Nick but it is just perseverence and enjoying the hunt that finds the gold, oh yeah a fair bit of luck also, cheers NM.
Legend...and what an amazing specimen. So true..persistence is key.
Thanks for letting us experience the joy.
Not a problem, l enjoy making these short vid,s as part of the hobby, just glad people enjoy them, cheers NM.
We do. Hope you find your reef.
Beautiful specimen! Awesome video's, bud!
What a great bunch of videos im glad i didnt miss any of them kind of bummed its over so fast but what beautiful specimens id be damned secretive too if i was in your shoes! Thankyou for the effort of taking me along til next video atb Russ.
Yeah l should probably lighten up a bit on that editing button, its amazing though at how much l repeat myself from one shoot to the next, l have ideas in the off season for making the vid,s that get forgotten in the daily excitement, glad you enjoyed the vid,s and l will keep working on it, cheers NM.
Great videos. Thanks for taking the time to film your exploits. It gives us all something to aim at :)
No worries, there is still gold out there and its a relaxing experience so make it a goal, l appreciate the positive feedback and glad you enjoyed, its already 2018 so new vid,s coming soon, atb cheers NM.
You're doing a great job . Hope you find your reef . Follow the money ( Gold )
Hi Russle..
Beautiful gold specimens..
Great finds there.
Thanks for sharing Gold Adventures..
Cheers Tony.👍🍺⛏🇦🇺
Not a problem Tony, l am glad you enjoyed the hunt with me, cheers NM.
Nice down to earth video as usual. Thankyou for sharing.
Glad you enjoyed Michael, l have just arrived back on the gold fields and am about to go offline for a while, so yours will be the last response l make for some time, thanks again for watching, cheers NM.
Looks like you had another great season, thanks for the vids and inspiration
No worries, they show its still worth getting out there and back to nature, the gold is a bonus, l look forward to making more vid,s soon and hope l can finally get an eagle on tape, glad you enjoyed and l appreciate the positive feedback, atb cheers NM.
Thank you for sharing. Congratulations. See you again soon. USA, Michigan
great going for 2017 liked all the great specimens well done love it all good luck for 2018
Thanks David, l was pretty lucky to pick up on a couple of those faint signals, l guess they had my name on them, best luck to you also for the 2018 season, cheers NM.
very nice specimens love seeing your finds
lt was a great area for speci,s, now the challenge of finding where they are coming from, glad you enjoyed, cheers NM.
Bloody awesome finds mate! Great work and glad you're still on it! You can afford a seafood platter or 2 with those finds! haha - Cheers
thats a lot of rain mate...nice chunky Gold....now that's an egg....beautiful specimen....love the iron stone on Gold....surprised you haven't found the reef yet....too bad you can trench the area to find it...from what I have seen you are right on top of it...but which direction?
The rain is rare out there, but greatly needed, will return to the goldfields next May to look for it again but right now l am going fishing and probably wont get internet down there for the next week or so, we will see, l need some surf and fish so until then, cheers NM.
Going fishing!! with that speciment found!!Find some dynamite and a jackleg drill or at least a BIG PICK!cheers Anders
Hello from From Northern Florida.I love your video's.What a blessing to be able to go out and find good gold.I would do it every chance I had too
I used to go out and hunt arrowheads after they cropped,raked and plowed....loved it
It sure is addictive, with next season just 3 months away l am already getting itchy feet, glad you enjoy the vid,s, cheers NM.
Great stuff NM - Good luck finding the source in the future.
Thanks, l think its a deep source and l would need machinery, l am going to look into it, cheers NM.
love these videos of yours, thanks for sharing mate !!
No worries, thanks for Watching and the positive feedback, cheers NM.
Great man. I wouldn't pan creaks. If I could do what your doing lol. Thanks for posting your trips mate.
Panning creeks is still exciting but the detector has made me lazy, if l had the skills at finding placer gold l would dig up the whole river, anyway however we find it its fun, cheers NM.
Awesome stuff hopefully next year you can vid some digs ect love your work
Thanks, check out pt 2 for my hardest dig ever, l got that one on tape, glad you enjoyed, cheers NM.
Thanks as always so inspiring and I always get excited when I see you have posted some new Vids :) I missed what you said earlier and was wondering why no Videos of the actual digging was this for privacy reasons ? anyway thanks Mate can't wait till you get out there again Cheers
Yes secrecy, for a couple of local miners its easier to watch my video,s and then go in with machinery than to find their own l have come to learn and with this area holding promise l thought l might keep it close to my chest, if l could stake my own claim there first my ground work would not be wasted, believe me it goes on all the time, thats how l lost my 2013 reef, l trust people will understand, cheers NM.
great series of vids N M...always enjoy the narrative and the critters makes ....me miss oz, but its great to hear all the birds sounds its funny how you miss em Cheers mate stay well
Glad you enjoyed the vid,s and l appreciate the positive feedback, l am only a few months away from the 2018 season and will try to get a bit more nature on tape, l might finally get an eagle and those elusive brumbies with any luck, thanks again and see you then, cheers NM.
Hi NM, Good to see the 4500 is still doing it for you, all the best in 2018 I hope you find the source.
Cheers
Biggest Kev
Gidday Kevin, it sure is and would be hard to part with, l will see how it goes this season and realise it wont last forever, cheers for the best wishes, NM.
Beuty specimens and targets of nugets gold grand hunting much much gold in Australia west .good hunting in 2017👏👏👏👏
Thanks Rodrigo, its getting harder to find but lots of fun searching, all the best to you, cheers NM.
Great presentation.
What percentage of the original rough nugget weight rough nugget weight does actually become tradable product?
Simply stunning love the gold stuff lol 😝
Nice finds mate, would be good to find the reef hat stuff came from keep on keeping on lol
Thanks Peter, its down there somewhere but probably need machinery to find it, l am going to look into it, cheers NM.
HI N/M what do you use to clean up with water and detergent ? or something stronger.? cheers
I was just told the old timers found slightly salty or brackish water works best when panning but for specimens like that l use Alibrite which is a no no, apparently it affects the quartz, cheers NM.
Brilliant!! excellent!!
Awesome bits of gold, sad to see another year end. Thanks much for sharing your adventures..!!
Yeah sometimes its hard to pack up and leave, back to the rat race and traffic lights, come on 2018, cheers NM.
Another great video. Happy New Year . When you going to upgrade to GPZ 7000 ? I am loving mine here in Vic.
Thanks Peter, happy new year to you too, they say you dont miss what you dont have and it would be hard to part with old faithful, guess l am just old and stuck in my ways :) anyway it cant last forever so we will see, cheers NM.
Gday mate just wondering if your referencing Vol 1 Gold & Ghosts book?
Awesome video. Great gold.
I have said it before and I will say it again. You are my hero. I would love to buy you a beer and pick your brain. I'm coming to the end of a 6 year plan to take up prospecting, the research and area has been chosen, the gear is sorted and so are the funds and as soon as I am made redundant from this project I'll have the time. All I have to do now is build the vehicle and I am off into the bush. Your videos are informative and inspirational thank you.
I am just glad they help, it sure is an exciting challenge and yet relaxing so l am sure you will enjoy the experience, the planning and research will go a long way to helping you find gold, its still out there so hope you can make it soon, cheers NM.
Can you recommend a coil/s for the GPX4500?
l use the 17 x 11nuggetfinder and have the 20inch round coil for deep ground, also nuggetfinder, they seem to grab most targets, cheers NM.
Thanks you.
Some nice species.
Hope you find the old mine or even better the reef itself.
Keep up the good videos.
Thanks Wayne, l think the source is a deep one because there were no old timer shafts about, defineately worth a further look though, thanks for the positive feedback, cheers NM.
é o meu sonho ter um dector desse otimo videos parabéns
thanks mate, glad you enjoy, cheers NM.
@@TheNuggetMagnet não etendo sua linguagem
l hope you have luck, Brasil is the land of gold, cheers NM.
Super fabbos ..😁pip pips and carryon
That was a good day playing in the dirt, glad you enjoyed mate, NM.
@@TheNuggetMagnet i did ...😁thanks
24:58 .......makes me want to cry :(
Gidday Mark, can you please repost your comment from 45 minutes ago, no matter what l try it is not showing up in that particular upload when l select it, l can see part of it in my messages but not given an option to reply, please try again on another vid, thanks NM. ps the portion l can see looks interesting and l want to read the rest.
NM- You are the Specie King " Great Finds Mate! How Many Days do you spend in the field on these hunts I forget? jus wondering? Thanks for posting your trips as always. jd
Gidday JD, been out of range as usual, found an out of the way place for some excellent fishing, will catch up better over next 2 days but to answer your question about 150 days but normally only half days, l am learning to kick back a bit, cheers NM.
Going fishing again so stay well and will catch up when l get reception again, cheers NM.
Hey mate do you target czl areas or do you just look for washes around old timers workings?having trouble getting onto good gold lately...its a hard game.
It sure is getting tough to find good ground, l like to follow the old timers dry panning piles and wallows because thats the window to the past, cheers and good luck this season, NM.
incredible. thanks for sharing
No worries, glad you enjoyed, cheers NM.
What would happen if you hit it with a hammer will it Bend and go flat or will it just break apart? Let me know Victor from Palmdale California 93591
l reckon the quartz would shatter and the gold matrix would flatten trapping quartz, you could leave it in acid till it was basically gold matrix, that would look pretty awesome and something l should try on the next, cheers Victor, stay well up there mate.
Good hunting mate.
Thanks, its getting tougher but they still aren,t extinct yet, cheers NM.
thanks for the video's
No worries, glad you enjoyed and thanks again for watching, cheers NM.
Is there any way you could dissolve the rock to leave the gold as is?. It would look incredible.
Yes by using hydrofluric acid, theres every chance though that it could fall apart if it wasnt all connected internally, cheers NM.
TheNuggetMagnet what about white vinegar?
nice finds.
Thanks, hope you seen pt 2, cheers NM.
What is your device name for gold discovery
Minelab GPX 4500
Thanks
MATE good vid, but those hands are coppin a flogin. cheers mate.
Yeah the extreme close ups of the gold makes them look worse than they are, back when l was floor tiling they bled every day from birdseyes if you are unfortunate enough to know what they are so this is a treat, however l did take some hand cream this yr, bit soft but hey, cheers mate, NM.
@@TheNuggetMagnet Love it keep up the good work. cheers
@@TheNuggetMagnet My friend i hope you back is better than a few of the tillers i know, those cartons of tiles ,i had 2 truck's carrying plasterboard ,hard on the body, at least now you are upright. Have fun find more GOLD LUMPS.Cheers Chris
@@dingydate Yeah backs fine, l got out in time, the call of the gold got me.
Awesome
Thanks Jane, maybe a bit boring being how it was all shot in the truck but l tried to be secretive about this particular place, really appreciate your positive feedback, l will upload the vid on the specific gravity test l did on those specimens real soon, once again thanks and all the best, cheers NM.
did you crush some of the specimens already
Yes mate, all done, cheers NM.
so if I wanna go to western Australia and dig for gold! who can I contact??
You need a "miners right" thru WA Gov and then check out "UDO and BILL" Their website is full of info and helpful facts, download Tengraph to see all available detecting grounds, hope that gets you started, cheers NM.
TheNuggetMagnet thank you so much!!
Meant to ask also what was your tally gramms ?
lncluding specimens it was just over 925g, cheers NM.
Nice return gotta be happy with that ☺
i was rapt, a real bonus to finish the season, cheers NM.
Boa noite amigo vídeos otimos so seu fã adimiro muito o seus vídeos esto aqui fasendo um apelo o amigo se o amigo tem um detector ai que não esteija
uzando poderia doalo pramim sou pobri e moro no Brasil
Hope you don't smash that specimen! It's to beautiful to smash! I would trade yah some silver specimens(leaf silver) from cobalt Ontario Canada for it!!
Gidday Chris, l agree and was sold as a specimen, l only smash the specimens with little visible gold, cheers NM.
TheNuggetMagnet Good to hear! It always such a shame when you see videos where people smash nice specimens just to get a blob of gold, did you keep the last giant specimen or sell that? would been a awesome one to add to any collection!
I still have that one which l have kept for a paper weight, lol, cheers NM.
top video tnm
Thanks glad you enjoyed, cheers NM.
yes of course as usual^^
You should tape a small slice of potato over that wart on the tip of ur middle finger and change it every 5 days it will go away in a couple weeks. Don't change the potato until about 5 days the bacteria that are breaking down the potato is what actually kills the wart, change out the potato every five days should go away quick.
Thanks, l will try that, hopes its not a lucky wart, lol, cheers NM.

Great vids NM. You have a big following both Aussie's & overseas. Its great you include desert scrub & wildlife as well. I have a question about your gpx 4500. Is it the 1st version and have you had any modifications done to it?
Regards
TD

nice finds
Yeah, exciting area for a gold lease if possible, cheers NM.
