Do a video on what a claim means, what you're allowed/ not allowed to do, legal rights, process, etc
It's actually very simple. Claims are portions of land that are owned by the government. Individuals can claim these certain areas and a lease for the land will be granted at a yearly $$ rate. The amount of time a claim belongs to any one individual depends upon the contents of the claim. Rules, and regulations vary tween states etc👍
If I may add this... To claim a piece of land for the purpose of extracting minerals, water, oil etc ... Is a precious privilege granted to we, living in the USA, Canada.. more people should take advantage of this, because this privilege is being encroached upon from lawmakers sitting on the Hill. I encourage everyone interested in prospecting/mining to exercise this freedom before it's taken away forever🙏🕉️🤯
@@carlcaruso33n many cases one has to purchase the mineral rights separate from the land ownership rights, and/or if you don't (such is the case on Oklahoma), without purchasing the rights yourself, literally anyone else can. They still need your permission to extract in some cases, but if it's an oil or gas seam below a certain depth underground, there's nothing preventing anyone else from side drilling from an adjacent lot.
This actually makes practicle sense in some ways, as say a one acre lot may not have the regulated square footage to erect the proper monong structure, or the seam itself is part of a network or greater field that one has already tapped, and there's literally no way to prevent extraction from below your lot when it's connected to a mining operation on a different lot.
A video on claims and the rights involved, would be a week long video, if you compressed it down. Look at a copy of Terry Maley's book "Mining Law". Mining claims can be a very complicated thing to own. You have to abide by County, State, and Federal Laws. All these entities will try to shut you down by making you meet so many environmental laws, that you had better start with deep pockets. Pick and shovel operations disturbing less than a 40 X 40 foot area are easier to permit. Any mechanized mining will require significantly more.
That's your responsibility as a miner to know the rules and details
Jason
That material has traveled down that river channel some distance.
Follow the liswanite to its source further up
If you find old workings or the untouched motherlode you're set for life!
Great work, keep at it.
Certainly appears to be gold, although some clays and uranium minerals also appear yellowish.
Mafic-ultramafic rocks are generally higher in Au than other source rocks and it may have been scavenged or supplied by by later magmatic/metasomatic fluids circulating through fracture/shear systems..
If you assay it, check for Cu, Pb, Zn, Co, Cr, Ni, As, Bi, Ag and PGE's. The relative abundances are a good indicator of the fluid/source rock provenance.
All the best from an exploration geo in Namibia.
That's absolutely gold and you deserve it dude I love this channel
You should carry a small dripper bottle with some Muriatic Acid in it.
One drop on the rock will tell you if the white stuff is Quartz or Calcite.
Only Calcite will react with HCl to produce foaming, not Quartz.
An empty E-Juice bottle works great and is completely resistant to the acid.
But the top may not be resistant to muriatic acid.
@@mikeblair2594 You can buy small chemical resistant dispensers online cheap cheap. The ones I use are sold for slide preparation.
Are you going to process the fines from your rock saw when the catch basin fills up? I think that would make an interesting video.
Love seeing you discover the joy and excitement of slabbing rocks.
Jason, I’m thinking we need to sacrifice that one rock to the ore crusher and do a smelt…😊
I comcurr
Awesome 🧲⚓️👍
Each rock is unique When it comes deciding which way to slice. Determining which way is made a little more difficult when there is oxidation hiding what's inside. Sometimes just have to take a slice then decide. Then when you have your slices look for interesting patterns to make cabs. That's the art of lapidary. It's a cool hobby.
Chrome is one of the first minerals to drop out of magma and crystalize. due to its high heat resistance, it usually survives a remelt process.
interesting journey you are on here.
Jason, go get you a bucket or 2 of those rocks, crush them in your system and smelt! Would love to see the results!!!
That's a Beautiful Turquoise Color in those Rocks that you Found!!✨💖
It looked like there is a lot of black sand in that creek. might be worth testing around.
Don't let Chris from Vogus see this, he loves flower gold and will come steal your claims (and your rocks!) :D
Na, he’s scared of flowing water!
@@judodavid1 only during 1000-year flood events! 😝
Hope you have a claim on that area. Great video Jason,stay safe
Awesome job as always, thank you very much for the content
The Dan Hurd colab brought me over again, and those are beautiful!
This was a great bit of investigative field work buddy.Thanks for sharing this with us
Could you grind them down and reveal the values in the pan ?
That is awesome! Now you know what rocks to crush up for GOLD! AND also sell those rocks with gold in them as they are!
Cabachons jewelry from visible gold ore specimens are very valuable gemstones today. Never seen any made from that green and white material. Might be many more times valuable than the gold.
That reminds me of that 2018 gold strike that RNC Minerals discovered in an old nickel mine.
Awesome Jason!! I would love to cab that, it's wild!!👍👍
😁👋👍👍👏👏💕🙏🏻
Thank you Jason. You provide such great content on your channel.
Tempting to quarter-saw that folded one, get a mirrored pair of slabs out of it.
I live in darrington and find listwanite in a lot of our streams and rivers I have cut some and will have to take a closer look now also listwanite will oxidized fairly quickly after it's cut
Oh wow. We were just at that spot last week. Seen your broken rocks you left behind.
⭐️⭐️Very cool rocks Jason ‼️
That stuff is coming from somewhere close by id bet by size your finding and shapes 😊😮
Maybe where you were seeing little bits of gold dotted around is because the band's are going the other way and that's just a cross section of them. Also I thought that big one in the water next to the little one you got was the same stuff because you couldn't tell another bit was it until you smashed it up 👍❤️💛💚
WOW! That some rich ore.
Excellent video Jason this is very informative six stars brother
I was struck by the microscope view and how it looks like a gas giant planet with the banding and colors on a circle surrounded by black.
You should try heat treating some samples. Sometimes heat will cause dramatic color changes.
Hey Jason, until you mentioned Listwanite I would've leaned towards a kind of "Mariposite soup". But holy moly does it have some wild and different characters to them or what. Although there are prettier looking one's, I'm really intrigued by the one with the several folds in it's structure. Cool find Guy.. can't wait to see how you proceed.
These recent videos make me want to buy a rock saw and hack open everything in the creek 😂
Exactly what I was thinking lol.
When you put those rocks underneath a microscope and we could actually see the gold when I imagine what a gold vein looks like that comes to mind
Im glad youre sharing this! we rookies dont always know what to look out for. Speaking of which I know where a huge amount of blue clay is. I also know where a large deposit of reddish rock is. Maybe precious in gold or mercury? The red is dense and smooth in the bottom of a canyon by the river. im gonna sample it this year and see if its got something in it..I hope!
Would make nice spheres
That’s awesome I’ve learned a lot from you thank you for your videos your an inspiration
Maybe the quartz precipitated out until it was gone, and all that was left was the clear silica with the green nickle?
That botryoidal quartz in the clear green looks really cool.
Wow! Now I'm watching you find all the gold! Awesome!
Magical chemistry so many of these minerals in the human body
That scope works great. JJ
If you wanted to get your best gold out of the powder once it's refined to dust. Why not use electrolysis? Spead the dust over a steel plate at the bottom of a water solution and then have a steel or gold plate at the top, which will be the negative terminal. Set it foe 3v and let it run.
you should run the sludge from cutting those on the shaker table👍👍👍
😂😂😂Jason…. Welcome to the rock hounding rabbit hole.
I’d like to see you process a bunch of those boulders with gold in them.
1/4 inch for cabochon.if you have large piece might consider having a sphere made.
I myself would like to see you grind up two or three of those and just see how much gold comes out of a small section of Rock. ,💰
Jason, If you don't get the best pieces assayed you may be missing a great opportunity. If I were you, I would keep walking that creek looking for the outcroppings. Claim it if you can. If not gold, beautiful source of cab material. Good luck!
I would enjoy hearing what the assay indicated on that hot piece. But not the whole thing. Need a couple slices on your market page.
Thank you Very Very much for cutting the rocks and showing how gold appears under a microscope. That is tremendously important to me. I have a lifetime of specimens, as well as specimens from my Father and his Brother. I have thought that there is gold in some of them, and now I think I was right on some but not others. An assay will ultimately tell, but Thank You again for the guidance. Please keep going. I learn something every time. Even after after a life of learning I still learn.
Gods beautiful creations
Ive mined Mariposite down by Toulomie California and that contains micron gold in your rocks.Mariposite is short length asbestos feels slick.
Try making a sphereoid snowball size with lateral stripes.
Think! Thinking takes to long, Jason! Lol! It's all in the green 🤑 get to doing your magic and get it out!.....Let me find out you're going to compete with Dan's Ocean Picture Stone? Lol! Get that prospectors beard on 🙏💪💰🤠
5:08 Here's what you should do; Take all those neat rocks to a hilltop, or a perch near the hilltop and build a rock cabin, complete with a huge rock fireplace!
Liswanite very cool 😎
I love Mariposite, there is quite a bit around here (Mariposa) , I saw a place where there were some big rocks at the base of a cliff. I have always wanted to go back and pick some up for my garden. Don't know about gold content.
That bug was interested in learning about that specimen.
great video keep em coming
That’s very cool my friend love the videos
A cube would be a cool shape to make, I would totally buy! Maybe 2 or 3 inches per side. Great vid! And what a fun discovery!
That would be good. A cube of one inch per side (with numbers) would be good too. I wonder what Hedron Rockworks could do with this stuff?
Learn something every day. Something else I didn't know it's found in Italy, and in large deposits in Australia.
So sending off to assay would tell a lot. However it would be an interesting video if you were to crush, smelt then cupel that slab for us to see!
Try to scratch the yellow sections with a needle. If it's gold it will scratch if it's copper pyrite it won't.
Those fine veins of gold between the green and white layers look awesome 💛
Don't crush any of these beautiful specimens - just analyze them with an XRF gun (maybe rent one for a couple of hours once you have a bunch of rocks lined up).
Truly beautiful 🌟
Maybe take the water out of the lapidary saw and run it across the shaker table.
Don’t forget to pan your saw tailings.
Awesome you can get nickel there!!!
I'd stake a claim and see about sinking a shaft!
Make cubes to polish as dice
I don't know what Dan would say, but it looks like a normal western Washington day, cloudy. I hope this proves valuable to you. It gave me some good tips to look out for besides what my geologist father has taught me.
Start smelting now!! We wanna see the gold!!
I don't see this one on eBay. Good work bro
I would like to see the assay results from 1 AT of the best stuff. Looks too fine to recover from gravity concentration.
Awesome video!
Possibly cool cab stones or whatever
ty for the work! would love to do some prospecting with ya just those dam financial constraints lol. keep it up love your stuff!
5:49 ... I want my kitchen countertops made out of that!! :)
Hi Jason, Time to go back and pick up every green rock you can find. Hopefully the hike isn't to long back to your truck. Take 20 pounds and put it threw your turnkey system to see how much free gold versus gold in sulfides there is. As far as slabbing - 6mm thick for cab cutters & 10mm thick for bead makers. Most of the time - just cut them in half. Cabbing people can do the rest. Great video. Thumbs up! Stay safe. Jim
Yup! That’s gold I see there skipper! Nice sleuth detecting! Haha!
Wauw!. I'd say put a drip of nitric acid on it and if the yellow stuf doesn't dissolve it's GOLD! maybe use 12k testfluid.
Looked like gold to me. It appears Dan Hurd has spurred you into a different direction.
Hope you make some money on these rocks.
Beautiful
Bust the nope stones open lol 😂
Views through microscope look like planet through a telescope. Pretty cool.
Awesome gold in that 10:48 rock
Get Dan involved. That looks really good.
Green good!
Thars gold in them thar cricks!!!
That very last rock I saw you split, even on the regular camera [to me, if nobunny else] appeared to have some serious gold sticking out of the fracture!
It's very pretty and I actually agree it seems quite alike this Listwanite deposit type, you should confirm the presence of Carbonates though, fizz test, it's easy to do and might eliminate it for the more mundane explanation of another Propylitic mineralised fault zone in an average Blueschist. I thought I saw its preferential erosion in some of the cobbles, but then when cut it seemed to be the ferromag bands locating those, so not sure. The plastic deformation could be an important factor in confirming this deposit type, I don't know enough about Listwanites to weigh in on that but you seem to have some viewers who do, wiki says it's structurally controlled. I'm from Epithermal areas so I'm used to knowing those two light and dark shades of green are Chlorite and Epidote respectively, all these rocks scream it at me, I was sure you'd be familiar with them too.
I'd love for you to confirm there is actually any Gold in it also, to measure or extract it. Like you say assay is good but you have the technology yourself! The habit of the yellow material you got very excited about in this video is very consistent with instead being mostly Goethite, like the staining which you see on the surface, just following fractures in and replacing certain mineral grains along the way.
This is exactly the kind of thing I'd make into spheres, it's got that planetary vibe and seems cohesive enough, Dan knows a guy for that.
Your microscope makes the gems look like planets pretty cool I think
Why does the rock saw use oil rather than water? With water you could easily recover any metals from the cuts
Curious due to the yellowing after oxidation. You might check for platinum group metals as well?
Yellow is almost certainly limonite, iron (hydro)oxides.
@@Ohtaror Yes, almost. You miss iridosmine once in an ore and you'll be sad. It's worth more than the gold by up to 10x at a peak. Rhodium is another one in same catagory.
Silver Spike here, I would recommend individual thin slabs with flat smooth polished surfaces.
The source of that looks like it’s definitely worth trying to find.
8:13 looks like a planet
Looks almost like ocean picture stone.
7:23..... looks like Uranus :)
