That special rock is a various layers of semi-breccia. Semi- because there ARE some stones/pebbles in this mud matrix (which means breccia - broken stones, conglomerated stones). You have various levels of sedimentation and metamorphic clay, mud, and silt. The blueish mud turns into a mudstone. Other sands turn into sandstone. Clay turns into shale into slate into schist into higher forms of compressed material. Silt turns into siltstone into shale into slate into schist. These small pebbles are found in a hydrological event (flash flood?) of rolling smooth and small pebbles into this clay, mud, and silt matrix. This sedimentation was covered with overburden, pressed and turned into this blue claystone and siltstone (not even up to shale or slate) matrix. So in some vast ancient past this was some muddy, slimy, outwash of an estuary, small creek, stream, or river lowlands. A flash flood of small material was washed down stream toward the Great Lakes, and embedded in this muck. Further overburden compressed this into this pebble and schmuck matrix of a muddy breccia. Question is .. with the retreat of the glacier age of 10,000s BCE, this isn't necessarily a moraine deposit (melting glaciers dropping boulders, stone, rocks, pebbles, gravel, sand, grit, clay, mud, silts ... but this was an outwash of some event over a very finely ground (sand), clay, mud, and silt deposition of a shallow waterway, pond, lake, maybe even an ocean shoreline. Just did a breccia rock of a UK mudlark wondering of here breccia and it had to be a volcanic and tectonic event of pebbles and igneous and plutonic (basalt and granite) matrix. Broken off somewhere inland, and pushed down the UK and dropped into the sea, wearing away the softer matrix, while the harder pebbles remained as a bumpy, knobby, brainy-like rounded stone between golf ball and hard ball size. The size of your semi-breccia claystone/mudstone/siltstone and its rounded shape says that it has been rounded (not cracked or broken off from a deposit) in modern paleontological times, and that it has been pushed up and rolled onto your Lake Superior shoreline. One could easily say that this was from the time of the dinosaurs (Mezoic age 60 million years ago) and is a process of sedimentation, external events of embedded pebbles, and then metaphorphism into this more-solid rock formation.
Other events of the turning and churning of this claystone/mudstone/siltstone with its convultions etc shows that the metamorphic process happened with additional hurky-jerky movements instead of a clear and uniformitarian equal-layered sedimentation. Other external events were also happening with this schmucky schmuck in ancient times. If you see the rock formations outside of Reno, NV at mile 22 and see the ribbon networks of metamorphic rock looking like those "S" christmas candy shapes that was sedimentation and compression and foldings. Something that you technically don't have in your rock (!) - you have different tectonic and geological processes happening in your Great Lakes region. It might even be that the 15,000 - 10,000 BCE period of the massive glacial ice sheets were the actual active agent doing the compressions of this overburden and this mud flat region.
If that whitish-brown matrix is not mudstone or siltstone, but the formations of sand, sandstone, and pre-Quartzite into Quartz, then this would be some flows of alumino-silicates of feldspar or K-spar (plutonic underground granite composites overflowing and embedding into this softer clay/mud/siltstones. One needs to have accurate rock ID on these individual components for geological interpretation of this rock's history.
That was fairly easy to understand and I really appreciate it!!!! I’m slowly turning into a part time rock hound and that really helps !!! Thank you!!!! 👍🏻✅
I don't even gold mine, but I find your personality, Rigby interactions and the gold mining very interesting and entertaining. You basically got my subscription from watching one of these beach mining vids. Therefore, I continue to watch and enjoy your content each week. Thank you for sharing your mining adventures with UA-cam!
I really enjoy your videos. The different spots you do. I really enjoy this video. One of my favorite pics is after a long day your dog has his wore out face up on the glove box between the seats of your truck...catching a rest...Love it.
As a lifetime member of the GPAA I must say that you sure do run a down to earth gold prospecting adventure every time . Very simple and easy to follow and understand !
Super fun video! Wishing Mrs. Wizard a Happy Birthday, she is really special to let you go beach mining on "Her" birthday. I had such a fun day werking the beach with you and Rigbomob. You always put together a fun and informative video, this is one is right up there too. I really appreciate the sluice, I am so taken back by such a awesome gift. I will be ready for beach mining next year. You are a class act and I am so glad to get to know you a little better. Take care my friend, glad you made it home safe, and I will see you in the next one.
hat's really cool that you were in a town called "Skookum" (excuse the spelling) because that word is also another name for a Sasquatch... I've heard it used a couple of times (on either a TV or a UA-cam video) when someone was listing some of the Native names for a Bigfoot and it's always stood out to me for some reason... And funny enough I've never actually heard it used before outside of those shows before. That's pretty cool. did you heard any notable Sasquatch stories while you were up there, or did you have any encounters yourself? I think prospecting in the deep wild go hand-in-hand with encounters so I would expect you to have heard a heck of a lot of stories (well, if anyone wasn't to afraid to bring it up and possibly jinx the camp LOL) - Glad you made it back ok and hopefully with lot of gold :D
Nothing better than Jason and rigbone on the beach. I went over and subscribed to Paul. Thanks guys. That vdr was loaded like a bucking horse. And even with the wind. Your camera mic sounded great. And I love the fridge of wonder. Happy birthday to Mrs wizard. She is a doll
Another great day on the beach, with more nice gold. That rope looked like it was still good. I wonder how much more cool stuff was exposed after the storm.. Happy Birthday, Mrs. Wizard!
Tow scoops of concentrate on the clean up sluice and one sip of beer seems like a reasonable rhythm of work for a Hard Working Miner such as yourself Jason ! Its when there are no scoops and just sips is when you need to call it a day, or more night !!
Very interesting video. I live about 35 miles from South Padre Island in South Texas. As a kid I remember laying on the shore by the waterline and watching little sparkles of gold. I always wondered if it could be gold.
Nice, Jason, looks like you and Paul, had a good day on the beach, someday I would like to make it up that way and try my luck up there on Lake Superior. Thanks for stopping by the live stream last night, brother.
Great Video glad to see Paul made it back from Alaska safe…awesome amount of beach gold…you really should have brought a nugget and dropped into Paul’s sluice when he wasn’t looking 😂
Hey Jason, wanted to share how your bringing the blacksand over to the garnet/blond sand for a comparative look-see. Sometimes what we see and experience gets lost in translation. So you done good! Rigby would approve too!
Awesome video as always Jason. Love the new camera & congrats on your new sponsor! We have just returned from our annual BC prospecting trip & the weather was so beautiful that it limited our work process! 1st time it has ever been too hot to work at this time of year. It did give us time to enjoy the beautiful scenery & kick back & enjoy nature which is a huge part of this hobby. Take care & we will continue to watch your quest for loads of flour gold & that elusive nugget (Prospector Greg is still searching fot that one too BTW). Janet. Infinity Prospecting
Hey Jason, yeah I saw this on Paul’s channel You two fellas knocked her out of the park. And what you gave him later on, let me tell you, I got a lot of respect for you brother. That was pretty darn cool.
I was thinking the same thing when I found out ! Ive since created something called the Smoothwater sluice head, it makes water delivery perfect on nearly all sluices !
Glad you guys hooked up. I moved to Michigan from the middle of Wisconsin and told Paul about you while working with him in St Clair. Before he retired from the plant he left some things in writing that referred to your UA-cam channel. He respects you a lot bud.
Awesome video here Jason. Looks like y'all had some fun Beach mining and you also had some fun rock finding. And that is definitely a very interesting rock that you found out there. Very interesting cause I haven't seen anything like it before in my area.
@@FlourgoldWizards very nice find especially for it being ancient coral and sedimentary clay. Wondering if it could be carbon dated to the exact time period? And what other kinds of finds that can be found as well, such as other ancient corals samples, and possibly any shark teeth. Lol
*Let this absolutely outstanding video be a defining video for your channel and go Viral 🔥🔥🔥🙌👏🏻👏🏻* *This is the first post storm gold mining video I have seen,and it’s so good* Belated birthday wishes for miss wizard.
That sure looks like a fossil to me. I watch Mamlambo fossils, and he finds rocks that look very similar to what you found that are ancient sedimentary crabs, penguins and other creatures. Looks like what you found has opalized maybe; regardless, that rock is way cool! Great gold for sure and thanks for all the great advice you always give!⛏👊
Jason, I have followed your channel for some time, now....I know(almost) nothing about mining gold - other than what I have seen here on your channel and other gold mining channels. I always love to see you and Rigby out there having a blast......god bless you all.
Heyyy whats going on here , again no drill sound from the fridge of wonders, last episode you said the mrs had it , who has the dewalt now ? The mexicans ? 🧐
years ago when I was about 14 years old I was on a beach area in Maine and found what looked like a brain. I took it into my science teacher to see what he thought. He said he sent it off to a lab for testing. About a month later he quit teaching and moved to Hawaii. I also found out the so called brain was from a whale and was worth its weight in gold. The teacher sold the piece for a great amount and left me cold. (The a$$hole). This hurt me deeply.
I hear you! Let me tell you a similar thing happened to me! I took a friend of mine with me to my secret cave in Oklahoma. I had been going to this cave for many years! Inside there were crystal formations that were incredible. Not volcanic but formed over thousands of years and very valuable. My favorite formation grew in a perfect x! We lost touch of each other for a few years and the next time I visited about ten years later this friend of mine had gone back to my cave and harvested the x crystal. It was on his coffee table! I found later that since it was grown in a perfect x..........it was worth half a million bucks or so. I still would not have taken it from the cave. A few tears later this x friend of mine passed away and the crystal is nowhere to be found! Things like this happen in life! Your teacher was a crook much like my friend!
Rock collectors are much like other collectors. The least valuable rock is the one that’s not in their collection. Until they get it, then it’s value goes up…
If u ever make it up that way there a geological survey I read that was 27 pages that really helped me pin point some great gold, it's called marine gold placers along the gulf of alaska margin I walked away with 47 ozs in a 5 month period. Mainly flower gold, some very nice nugs from up the copper, that area is amazing, if u don't mind a grizzly incounter or 2.
I love this guy. I live in eagle river wi, and I have to say. Guys like this is what makes Wisconsin great. Positive, happy, out going…. In every video, older beer drinking mason talking to a camera in the woods digging shiny!!!! Thanks wizard.
@@FlourgoldWizards check out “Garlic Creek” just northwest or Marquette. Pretty much anywhere back there I have had great results. It’s a trek but we’ll worth it and the waterfalls are breathtaking. RigBomb would love it.
Happy Birthday Mrs Wizard and congratulations Jason on such a big pan of lovely gold. It was lovely seeing Prospector Paul keeping you company, and his bucket of special classified Alaskan sand looked promising. Wishing you all the best, Wendi 🌻
Thanks for the opportunity to check out the rock! Can’t wait to give it a cut! I’ll film it and post it on my channel. Amazing how that beach changes! Great gold! Great episode! Tell Val I said happy birthday! 🍻
Hey Jason, love your channel, I have learned alot, THANKS the Michigan law about power sluicing is vague, Like they dont' want Us to do it,I'll keep digging! Thanks again
I know this sounds weird but I absolutely love to shovel. I'm a true believer of the more material you process the more gold you find. I'd love to come shovel for you you could keep the gold. I really enjoy the whole process of it all gold is just a bonus
No gold panning here in UK, but we do collect sea glass on our shores here in North East. Always a pleasure to watch and share in rigbies adventures (and yours too). Open that fridge of wonder and have one for me Jason.
Paul is awesome. I met him for the first time in Arizona last April at the detector event. I'll be back out there in April to see him again. Hopefully he will have time to take me to the gold fields out there and show me how to do some dry washing for gold. Good gold!!! Merry Christmas my friend.
Always have a blast coming by fam. Keep on having fun getting that au and living the dream fam. Great time out fam. Nice au indeed fam. Gold Squad Out!!!
Happy Birthday to Val! Wow 2 Rocks of the week! Woo! and neither one got pitched! lol I am so glad you are taking an interest in rocks and are collecting some of them. That 2nd one wow, it would "almost" be worth cutting it in half if you have a tile saw. I didn't see any bands, but the spot in the middle almost looks like an agate. Super generous of Paul too. Awesome gold. Great video!
You collect fossils, Chris? Go look at a mammoth tooth and see if those colors don’t match up. It’s tumbled to heck, but maybe if he does cut it he can get a pattern to verify or rule out. Especially if it was a molar. Direction of cut will be important. I guessed that it some kids art project ashtray gone wrong and dumped. 😂🤣
@@mineralmammalprospecting I will always look for them when I'm out looking for rocks. It's a really interesting rock he found for sure, so I'm just hoping it's worth cutting. I'm personally hoping it's a lake superior agate.
Hey Jason the Mason, have you ever thought about bringing a concrete rake with to scrape the black sands into a pile? It wouldnt add to much weight to your pack, and could even chop the handle to make it shorter.
Happy Birthday Miss wizard ! My wife’s was Friday mine was Sunday! It was chilly in the wind with them waves! I saw you guys heading out Friday afternoon !Wish I would have known it was you while we were out ! We did good as well ! Thank you for your reviews on the vdr mats and clean out sluices I love my new set up I’m sure I could still use some fine tuning but love it so far.

It’s crazy to think that the gold you got was pushed there from Canada by a glacier millions of years ago! ❤
Funny thing is it is all the way down into the midwest
And right!!!
Even crazier was that it was delivered from meteorites that came from a supernova. You are looking at congealed stardust
Them glaciers happened about 10,000 years ago I was told . But who really knows , none of us were alive then I think .
@@oldpolak5203

I cant wait to see!!!! Thank you Andy !!!
The best part about scraping the top is you have no holes to fill!! Great video!!👍😁
Indeed!!! 👍🏻😃
Hey Jason, love your channel, I have learned alot, THANKS the Michigan law about power sluicing is vague, Like they dont' want Us to do it,I'll keep digging! Thanks again
Right on😃👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you that was awesome video one day I'll come visit your Great Lakes thank you again
You’ll definitely enjoy it !!
Dang Flour Gold Wizard! True Legend finding that micro-gold! WOW!!!!
Its definitely fun locating it too !!!
I know this sounds weird but I absolutely love to shovel.
I'm a true believer of the more material you process the more gold you find.
I'd love to come shovel for you you could keep the gold.
I really enjoy the whole process of it all gold is just a bonus
Sounds like you need a sluice !!!!
@@FlourgoldWizards I have several sluices and a dredge.
A solid 45 years prospecting.
I'm in New England you ever want to dig a hole you find me.
Rock of the week is very unusual and beautiful! PBR for the win 🍻
We can’t wait to get it back from the rock pro !!!!
Love how passionate you are with this hobby. I hunt for antique bottles and it's a great getaway. Love the dog to.
Sounds fun !!
i really love this beach and your show and helping increase you youtube points
Thank you!!!
Happy birthday to mrs. wizard!

No gold panning here in UK, but we do collect sea glass on our shores here in North East. Always a pleasure to watch and share in rigbies adventures (and yours too). Open that fridge of wonder and have one for me Jason.

Great video and even better with the big golden smile
Thank you!
Can u do video on equipment you need to get started?
Possibly!
Paul is awesome. I met him for the first time in Arizona last April at the detector event. I'll be back out there in April to see him again. Hopefully he will have time to take me to the gold fields out there and show me how to do some dry washing for gold. Good gold!!! Merry Christmas my friend.

😃😃😃👍🏻
Nice haul Jason. Glad to see Paul made it back also. I had the same luck a few weekends back. Wish I lived up there.
Fresh beach is always nice !!!!!
Happy Birthday to Val! Wow 2 Rocks of the week! Woo! and neither one got pitched! lol I am so glad you are taking an interest in rocks and are collecting some of them. That 2nd one wow, it would "almost" be worth cutting it in half if you have a tile saw. I didn't see any bands, but the spot in the middle almost looks like an agate. Super generous of Paul too. Awesome gold. Great video!
You collect fossils, Chris?
Go look at a mammoth tooth and see if those colors don’t match up. It’s tumbled to heck, but maybe if he does cut it he can get a pattern to verify or rule out. Especially if it was a molar. Direction of cut will be important.
I guessed that it some kids art project ashtray gone wrong and dumped. 😂🤣
Im sending it off to Paparockzee for further “ attention “ you get half 🤣🤣🤣✅
@@mineralmammalprospecting I will always look for them when I'm out looking for rocks. It's a really interesting rock he found for sure, so I'm just hoping it's worth cutting. I'm personally hoping it's a lake superior agate.
@@FlourgoldWizards I hope he does a video.
I’ve seen a lot of rocks from this region and this one is pretty unique! I will film the cut for sure! Stay tuned!
Liked, shared and commenting. Merry Birthday Mrs. Wizards.🎂🍻
🤣🤣🤣✅👍🏻
Jason the pan of gold looking very nice
Agreed!!!👍🏻
Hey Jason the Mason, have you ever thought about bringing a concrete rake with to scrape the black sands into a pile? It wouldnt add to much weight to your pack, and could even chop the handle to make it shorter.
It probably would work pretty well!!!
To bad the season is pretty much over, but there's always next year!
Brilliant video again Jason 👍 thanks
The soothing sound of Lake Superior had me dozing off💤😂
Just had to rewind 🤣
Makes me drowsy too ✅🤣🤣🤣
Happy belated birthday to Mrs Wizard, that beach spot looked absolutely amazing. Thanks for the great video Jason and Rigby!
It was interesting to see all the erosion!!!!
I went over to Paul's channel and no one was home. Busy single 😁👍
Hes probably still coming down from his busy summer !!!!!
Happy Birthday Miss wizard ! My wife’s was Friday mine was Sunday! It was chilly in the wind with them waves! I saw you guys heading out Friday afternoon !Wish I would have known it was you while we were out ! We did good as well ! Thank you for your reviews on the vdr mats and clean out sluices I love my new set up I’m sure I could still use some fine tuning but love it so far.
I only mined Saturday but sure had a blast !!!! Thank you Kasey ✅👍🏻🐺
@@FlourgoldWizards lol probably was Saturday then , the weekends a little fuzzy 🍻🍻
Didn't realize this was from 2 years ago but still a great video man that gold looks nice
Hey, thanks!
Awesome spot you’ve got! Have fun getting that gold! Very nice shiny brother! Thanks for the great video👍😊
Thank you Doug 👍🏻✌️

When you said the rock was hard as a rock I thought to myself absolute genius. Nice show

Maybe try a flat shovel instead of that shovel.
