Happy your able to do some Colorado adventuring even though it’s so far away
I don't know if I'd call it failure, a bad day prospecting is still better than a good day sitting at home 👍
True! Get out in nature!
Never heard a better piece of wisdom!
Green rock, If it smells like almonds its pyrite arsenic.
Black sand: if it's tin oxide its worth about $25k a ton.
Final edit: love how excited you guys were. Its the exact reason I do it, gold be damed its about finding it.
Oh wow didn't know that. ALso didn't smell the rock but ill try it next time...smelling rocks..hmmm...
Arsenopyrite smells a bit like garlic to me. The green rocks are probably epidote.
Those green rocks are rocks that are green
Yeah it's called leaverite, because it's best you just leaverite there. LOL 👍

the Dog crossing the creek was epic !!!!!!!!
The dog walking the log cracked me up! Lmbo!!! Great video as always! Thanks!
Sweet!
I live in Cañon City also.
Cheers
Do you keep any simple survival gear in your bags ever, just in case? Would make a GREAT video from a ex-military man to show us some simple lightweight gear we could pack.
Great video as always Shane. Hope the move is going well and I can't wait till your next live stream.
Great job Shane .I know a couple spots on the Ark that we could check out.
Hey klesh, your channel gave me the gold fever and got me into prospecting. Even though I was unsure whether I could find some in Utah, I ended up with a little gold. I was wondering if you knew the purity of the gold in Utah? Good video, keep it up!
A bad day prospecting beats a good day at work 😜😂! Shane you are awesome man!
I agree Wilson Ocasio, and thanks for watching!
Klesh another great video, keep them coming. Appreciate it
I don't typically find gold in the clay, I find it on the clay. I scrape off the top layer and leave the rest behind. A good way to process that clay is to take those chunks and grate them across the classifier just like you use a cheese grater. Saves the fingers a bit.
The video says it’s been out for 20 minutes but people have commented on it 2 days ago (damn you Illuminati)
Gumboot fish... Mmmm delicious!
cool video! im surprised that old timer wasnt out there again trying to guard the gold lol
A like from Brazil
For food ideas: You could pack a few MREs for "just in case" moments. They are pretty cheap online an lightweight to pack. Yes, some might not taste that great but when you are busy a quick meal is better than having no energy when you would like quick physical food. MREs are also a big trend on UA-cam these days. Might bring back some good military memory for you!
Yeah I do enjoy MRE's actually. I carry Ambronite now, it's all powder (just add water) and it's a single pouch, no extra trash, more lightweight and just easier and faster than MRE's. Although yes...MRE's are nostalgia in a bag for me!
We are long hair buddies!!!!😍 You should do a single braid once an a while when you have to do serious mining so your hair does not fall, get tangled an/or get dirty from pushing it back. Just a tip. Hope it could help.💙💚💛💜💙💜💛💚
Thanks I do have my girlfriend tie it in a braid , especially for scuba diving trips.
Awesome - comment first - BIG THUMBS UP - now time to watch. I'm sure it will be great
as always - keep up the great adventures.
About a decade ago i was called to the office of the local metallurgist friend. He knew i had a hand full of Fire Opals i was sitting on waiting for a buyer. An opal buyer from Australia was going to be stopping into my friends shop to catch up on old times and he wanted my to meet his Aussie friend, as well as get a chance to get premium price on selling my rough gems to the Aussie.
The Aussie(Jimmy) was as colorful in personality as the gems he purchased from me. After the sale,the 3 of us went down to the bar for a few drinks. Jimmy told me he as well loved prospecting for gold along with everything else that sparkled under the sun. We got talking about his recent prospecting trip in Arizona,showing us pictures of a very impressive cleanup along with pictures of the unusual(but do-able) method he used to get that humbling large amount of gold. I was taken back by his methods, as i never seen gold prospecting done like that before. Since that conversation with him, i been itching to get on down to AZ to put that method to a good test for myself. A lot of research needs to go into this sort of thing before i go,as well as saving up for it. Sorry i wasn't specific as to the method Jimmy used,but it is something i really don't want the world to know about. If you know what i mean.

Great video ... would love to get on Lake creek up the road from Cache creek but its mainly all claimed up... been thinking of contacting the claim owners to ask permission.
Well done on that Vid - great job to all you guys on the hunt.
Oh how cool would that be - Burn the tree and process the ashes for gold. You Guys ;)
Keep up the brilliant work. Cheers M.G
Besides the coins you give away on livestreams, maybe you can make bags of different raw stones an send them to people. No effort required since you get a lot of rocks for free.

DANG!!!! *THAT DOG CAN JOIN THE MILITARY!*
i feel that failure is never an option when you make a video thanks Klesh
In the back of my mind (from watching you for years) I thought you were a loner. I love these new videos with other UA-camrs in them. Don't get me wrong I just plain love your channels. :D
THanks!
@@Klesh So true from your first one. ;D
Shane: It would be AMAZING if you could make some videos of you "Floating down a river(would be VERY funny)", "A video of just no talking ASMR paning for gold(with stream sounds)" an a video of "stream sounds for ASMR". Not too much off topic of your normal videos.
Oh yeah I've thought about this type of video , maybe will come soon. Actually filmed a few, never put on UA-cam (they're 8 hours long)
@@Klesh *That will get your watch time UP!*
I got the go ahead equals the wife said it's OK lol
You know what's up!
You can sell black sand but you have to get a lot of it to make anything it has platinum in it bro 💪 👊 the Arkansas is loaded with black sand from turquoise lake all the way down to Pueblo great video Shane
Looked like a great trip to me....
It was a good one thanks for watching man!
What a great day on the creek. Thanks for sharing.
You had a great day out there. Looked like a lot of fun and some hard work. Nice gold! I was getting ready to go out and noticed your video, had to watch it first. Now that I'm inspired I will go out and get some gold. Thanks Shane and crew. Good job. Have a great day and be safe.
Ahhh, beef jerky, breakfast of champions! Great video thanks for uploading :)
love watching your vids man. I've never done any prospecting and its definitely something I would like to try. keep it up!
Damn bro! You guys need some hip boots.
yea....i actually bought some but took them back. Too much to carry out to the sites.
Love the channel bro. You inspire me to get that shiney
kitchen potato masher to break clay up
Maybe, but the rocks in the clay might make that difficult as well. Cool idea though.
I wonder if a battery operated drill with a paint mixer attached would break the clay up. I just read what you said in another comment. Never mind..
Water like that is kinda sparse here in New Mexico but I've seen my Front Yard looking like that a few times in the past 20 some years. Kinda good to have once in a spell. Cleans chit up eaaaa? DAMN Dude, I really wanted one of those Fluid Bed Sluices like that. That's like a $400.00 sluice. One of those once in a Life time Gifting's ? Good Stuff and Koo-does from who ever Passed it on to ya. Let the Good Ju Ju rain upon him. Chris must be a Fine Name. This guy Chris and the Down Yonder VoGus Chris ? You guys look like regular Indiana Jones crossing that log. LOL
With my luck I would try for like weeks and find nothing🤷🏻♂️😂😂
Very nice video! I love the dog crossing as well! I bought a kit and it has arrived, so I am anxious to try it out. See you next time!
It's so great to see a content creator of your size interacting and inviting your subscribers out on trips to participate in the videos. Keep it up bud
Do you have enough gold to make a gold bar yet? Refine it to 99.999% gold. Would be a FUN video too!
I do have enough gold to make (probably a kilo?) bar if I wanted, but melting natural gold is literally a waste of money. Natural gold, especially the larger pieces command a very nice premium over spot value. For instance, let's say gold is $50 a gram. A two gram nugget will sell for more than $110, and the larger the nugget, the higher the premium.
A pair of dish washing gloves works a treat for saving the finger prints, good in cold weather too. Make sure they fit snugly,a pain to get on but if they”fit like a glove” you don’t know you’ve got them on.
Looks like a good days gold to me. Gold is just a bonus after a day in the bush.
Lol, you guys are prospecting on my favorite area at Cache Creek. Last time I was out I got my rubber boots stuck in that hole by the fallen tree. I learned not to waste my time with the clay as most of the gold was just above the clay layer. I highly recommend Cache Creek for prospecting and it is my second favorite area to prospect after the American River in California.
Unfortunately the Arkansas river through canon city was commercially dredged extensively and left very small amounts of gold to be recovered you can see the remaining dredge ponds on Mackenzie drive just before santa fe on the shore of the Arkansas river
nice little turn around from being skunked to some nice looking gold well done Klesh cheers

“I absolutely love that quote”. Noah Strauss
A person will never find anything if they don't look. One thing about it, you're always looking.
Use the smallest mesh when breaking up clay,Then dump the classifier and bucket into that new sluice you got
I watched all you guys do canning and the one thing I’ve noticed is this is just an observation not a criticism I think you should slow down a little bit I saw another video of a guy and over another pan box and that was the only way he would do it I personally think that’s a great idea good luck guys
2:14sec where you are pointing. Look at the base of the tree. Looks like something is peeking around the tree...🤔🤨😕
Little greenies might be galena...Thanks for another video and adventure.
I’m coming to Winter park Colorado July 6th- 12th it would be cool to meet you
Dont know how I got here but im.glad imma.subscribe
There was a ton of black sand on the Arkansas yesterday 7/22/19. I didnt find any big gold tho.
Great video. Also thank you for pointing out the Vet discount. That means a lot.
Also, the prospecting shop in florence says people use the black sand to make knives and tools with.
Nice pans for sure. Exciting to see the larger pieces. I'm sure you guys will return to that spot.
Highlight of the video goes to !!!! The dog crossing the tree bridge!
Try mesh gloves, that oyster men or those that use around knives. The oyster gloves are heavy knitted cloth and wash out well.
great vid guys.i live in aurora and used to take the kids out panning when they were younger.great times!
Olivine perhaps...(Mg, Fe)2SiO4
good man Chris
Just up river there’s a great spot along the Arkansas river, was there two yrs ago.
Cool picks and pieces dude! Keep up the cool vids!
Your dog is so cute. Aweesome video as always!
I have never done that instagram thing before but what can go wrong??
Another great video shane 😎👍love the dog crossing 😂😂
That was a nice Video! ... and Love to the Dog
Green rock is most likely olivine, its a silicate mineral formed in the mantle
Hey I want to join you when you come to Phoenix Arizona!
need scuba gear to get across man ha ha stay safe man
I would guess that the green rocks are olivine 🙂
I have a Bazooka Gold Trap as well. My suggestion would be to add some V matting on it. Good way to visibly see if your on the gold.
I thought of that as well, thanks for reminding me!
Chris is a legend
I agree Nick, and thanks for watching!
You thought the river is up come to Oklahoma.
Great video man! Nice gold
The poor dog going over the creek that was funny
A ton of fun had by all I think lol
Nice colours in dead tree Gully lol lol
Great bunch of guys fun day yew

Are you crying?! Theres no crying in prospecting! Ever try putting some heavy jagged stones on top of the clay? I like digging into the contact zones between our (PA) blue gray clay and the orange clay. I put a few heavy rough stones in the arbor fab on top of the clay. It sorta helps break it down and schmush it through the wires a little easier. It doesnt work well on tacky clay with no gravels in it, but the mineralized orange stuff breaks down fairly quick. Though spinning the arbor fab to bust up clay isnt much easier than doing it by hand lol.
yeah it's pretty much just bust it up with your hands, add rocks and continue pushing the clay through. If motorized equipment were allowed, I'd say a pressure washer might be the best bet.
That was really nice of that person to give that bazooka sluice. As you said they don’t made those anymore but there are some new and improved ones out on the market. Some are made AMAZINGLY well. They refined them and used new technology, there not cheap either. But it was still really cool to get that classic bazooka. As always Shane great job on your videos👍👍👍
Nice!
Yep olivine are sickly green rocks for sure.
Bendigo boy is now in Colorado :)
Great video. Love Colorado gold!
Next time you are going to be classifying clay , a pair of nitrile or your black gloves you use for unboxing etc. they will save your hands. Great vid, went through Canon city about 15 yrs ago. Was looking for a burger place my sister had told me about from living there many many years ago. It’s so beautiful out that way. One day maybe I’ll get to go again.
Great idea but there's too many rocks mixed with the clay, so the gloves would break in a few seconds. Maybe a regular pair of mechanic gloves would help though. Thanks for watching, Bunk House Burgers is the best place around here that I've found so far!
Nice is Canyon City around Silverton or Durango? I had asked in your last cash creek. if you got the dirt from the roots. I thought you might find more there. I found some specs in Texas on the Colorado river,There was black sand behind these weeds growing in the water. I got the black sand and the pulled up the weeds and cleaned the roots in my pan. I was so happy to find a few specs.
Nice! Canon city is...well you can just google it to see. THanks for watching!
Hey man hopefully u get to see this but I found a 1910 dime that I’d like u to have if you have a P.O. Box I can send it to but thanks for making these videos man it’s cool watching u pan for some gold regardless if it’s a hit or miss
Nice! my mailing addy is in the description of every video
Try a butter kneading tool for your clay
Any day out is a good day, thanks 🍻
try to make tamahagane with that black sand.
What a great dog fun video!
Cute puppy and another great video😀
Dump clay into a bucket, add some water. Use a cordless drill with a drywall/cement mixing bit to break it up. Problem solved
Can't use mechanized or motorized equipment at this location, but that would work great!
Your videos are so relaxing and therapeutic- watching you pan the gold is hypnotic- I watch them at bedtime and I get through two or three videos and drift off to sleep .
Thanks mark layton glad you enjoyed it!
I am not joking, I am tearing up because the dog is so fucking cute trying to cross while holding onto the tree as well! Cuteness overload.
Yeah he did good!
Snooker stole the show here guys : D Damn fine pup! Thanks for the fun video, it made my morning!
Yeah I put Snooker in the spotlight, most entertaining dog!
Wish you a million subscriber.
It's never an adventure....if you don't have an adventure.. lol. That's a keeper! :)
Awesome video by the way!!!
