- Finding big amounts of chunky gold in an old culvert pipe! Gold can be found upstream and below but doesnt compare to the hoards of gold nuggets, pickers and fine gold in the culvert riffles!
Hope everyone enjoys our videos on gold mining in BC, mineral exploration, geology, mineral deposits and that gold!

A stream with a built in sluice box, how considerate!
LOL! I was thinking the same thing.
Can use them in BC but if a logging company puts one in it ok 🤷♂️😁👍😀
@@911mining Because logging companies are just ever so enviromentally enlightened and they just can't quit hugging trees........with chainsaws. Lolol
Lol
@@911mining lol again
The only thing we find in Miami pipes are alligators.
Sell the skins and use the proceeds to buy gold.
R Adams smoked alligator ain’t bad.
@@chucknplata2261 that sounds good. I personally have only had gator jerky but i loved it.
@@coreymerrill3257 the ribs are good and fried tail catfish style
@@ericsingletary2603 i dont eat fish at all and in this area you dont eat big catfish (channel cats are the big ones , yellow bullhead and brown bullhead are the locally eaten catfish and everyone but me, loves them) because they are dirty. As in they are mercury loaded .i am also told they taste sandy and unpleasant anyway. So im not sure how you mean when you say" cat fish style". Is that seasoned and breaded and fried ? A big hunk if fish cooked in hot cast iron?
The plunge pool at the end under the log would be loaded!!!
When you're panning gold, "PANNING!" at a rate higher than a typical hourly wage, you know you're doing something right. You guys never cease to impress, keep up the great work.
If I were you, I'd bring a wet/dry vac and a small generator and get right down in the bottom of those grooves in the culvert, there's bound to be a huge amount of fine gold in there. Make sure you don't leave anything behind.
richard bidinger great minds think alike , when I saw that 1st pan I was like he needs to collect all the material ,... I didn’t see your comment till after I posted my comment that happens to be the same as yours , you saw the video b4 I did ,, I’d suspect that little pipe pays out pretty good for these guys , or at least I hope so, good to see people thinking outside the pipe ,
We will be back gates where closed the day after for fire season so it's a bit of a waiting game.
HOLY MACKEREL! You found a good culvert that hasn't been molested! You are not even touching the drop riffles in that culvert, basically you got that gold out of the overburden! I bet you get well over an ounce! Congratulations on a SPLENDID find!
Wow eh beautiful find
I'd check every year
I'm now looking for some of them👍😁
,I have to say how much i appreciate a guy like this who doesn't run his mouth yap yap yapping the whole time. He says the bare minimum & it RELATES TO THE GOLD ...that's it. So thank you Mr hush hush panning man, you are a GEM!!
Shawn Young ^
I wish my rivers had giant walk in sluice box's!
Lol ya
Oh wow!
U must do a video when u get back to clean the culvert out 🤞🏻👍
Glenda dale Jones I wish! You know they stayed and cleaned out all that material. Probably got an ounce or more
hah nice! i know of a few spots in gold country that have the same setup. i always thought it was a free public sluice and you confirmed it. thank you! btw, just started watching your vids, please show more results. peace!
That's so smart dude. Nice clean up. 👌⛏🤘 love it.🔥
God I am green with envy : D Watching again to poultice my gold fever! What a culvert!
For special programming... cleaning out that pipe and running it direct to a sluice would really excite your patrons.
Can’t legally sluice in any waterways in British Columbia unfortunately.
Really excite them and do it at night!
That's impressive that theres so much in there but it does make sense that the pipes ripples would catch it
Nothing better than a city provided riffle tunnel loaded with water slowing pebbles to catch gold for you.
Loggers are forever happy; their roads won't get washed out due to a clogged culvert pipe, clean as a whistle going into every winter!
You should look for more of those pipes... they are basically a giganic sluice.
Exactly my thoughts too!
@@memewaxer maybe he can even put some of them on claims... it just takes time and after cleaning them he could just wait for them to fill up again. Also he can put like prison bars on both sides and a opening with a lock so nobody else can clean them out.
@@tronixfix only if you get permission from dot!
I've tried culverts here in Maine and found about the same amount in the culvert as picking in the bedrock, on the same stream. Which is good in my opinion. The culvert is much easier to work! Im going to pick a culvert that really gushes during the spring melt.. Maybe that would pan out good.
Good to see you folks getting some good gold, that was a nice haul and an interesting video. Thank you!!
Go back with the high banker and run it all. You can probably come back in a year or two, and it will refill
Thats a pretty good point to have a honey hole you can just visit Nd clean out.
Only problem now is Tony Beets cruising down that stream in his mega dredge🤣🤣🤣🤣
Good find though👍
See how much better you do when you don't have gloves on?
Thought about trying this in the creek I’ve been prospecting. There is a pipe coming from a runoff feeder I’m not sure if it will have much but it looks like it might be worth a try. Great video!!
Its unbelievable how that much gold ends up there
Awesome gold!
"Finding little gold in big culvert pipe". Somebody get this guy a real gold pan.
For real. I mean that thing might be good for some quick prospecting but I have doubts about it
Wait till the review you'll be surprised at how much better this is over a conventional pan
@@911mining what are the details of the pan. Looks really great for a day out prospecting on my mtb.
Check out www.placertools.com
We just did a review this morning on it check it out.
Are you going to show what you get in total from there in another video?
hey guys you prospect so much you need to go to goldhog.com nd get yourselves a hog pan. it is compact, 6 wingnuts is all it takes TO SETUP AND TAKE DOWN. with that and a small finish pan youcould hve cleaned out that pipe in an hour or less. also could you send me a copy of the 51 mineral survey? I know what most of the stuff is but there are a lot I don't know and cant seem to find it myself online.. probably niot looking in right places..
I've seen that pan on another channel and they liked it
Looks weird though
To me it looks good on capture but poor on volume
It proscesses material 3x faster that a traditional one takes 60 seconds max
@@911mining then it looks like its being used wrong in the clip above. It didnt start with as much as youd start with in a 14" plastic pan, and still had to be concentrated. If you have a side by side video of someone proficient with a plastic pan, next to a person proficient with this pan, and a known quantity of dirt, and a known quantity of gold, and this pan is even 50% faster Ill buy three of them.
I did not expect that much gold. Wow
Yes, I have found gold in culverts also. But also have found if there is a cloud burst after spring run offs it can blow all the gold right out! So don't wait to long after the spring runoff!
I would definitely hoover it from end to end. Looks good.
Definately
Power Sluice that bad boy clean!
Awesome video... just the most amazing thing ....wow
.... and, Yeah ... ur gonna get wet ! Your findings would give Jeff Williams a "wet" dream !
Great job. Clean that culvert, make it shine. Thanks, beautiful gold.
Specks of gold for all that work? It would probably be more profitable to just go to work wouldn’t it ?
Incredible find! I wonder if the bigger rounder pieces are at the end in the pool🤞 or above in a dead spot left or right of the culvert ? Neat pan.
That square pan looks like more work than help, not impressed with it, rest of video great!
I love my gold claw...times are really tough out there...this is the only way...
Looks like a good spot to use a garden trowel
And a crack vac!
That pan sure doesn't look easier than a regular pan
Its substantially easier. Hard to get used to if all you have used is a conventional pan but its quicker, no classifying needed, great for fine gold, perfect for long trips in the Bush.
@@911mining If you classified, I think it would be real quick, but stopping to rake off the larger pebbles and back panning down takes half of your pan time. I definitely approve of your method of sampling a culvert pipe; I did it when I was a greenhorn, and now I realize how poor my sampling was. I need to put my boots back on and try it again!
I would like to see the follow up on what you found in that culvert.
DIG UP THE UPSTREAM END OF THE CULVERT...
Right
That culvert looks to be highly productive and the material is easy to extract and process, good find, I'm sure your going to check out the pools at the entrances and exits as well! I like the look of that new pan, it's about time someone decided to design and manufacture something that's not round, are they for sale yet and do you ship to the UK? I'm going to have a go in some streams I know of from fishing where there's loads of quartz veins and black sands on the little beaches, I need a pan and may as well start out with what I intend to keep on using.
Not yet this will be avaliable in a week or so when we do our full review. It's a new pan we have been testing for the past couple months the newer design has a few small changes like cleanup riffle at the back.
Better watch your rear view mirror for me following you
so much gold was found in that culvert?
Very nice video. I would think that the pan might benefit from some horizontal scratching with course grit sandpaper which would make some micro riffles in the main section of it. This is what I do to "season" a new pan after I thoroughly wash it with dawn dish detergent to remove any oils left on it from the manufacturing process. Thanks for sharing the videos with us. Jim
Holy Jesus there was a lot gold in culvert pipe
A natural Sluice box there isn’t it?! Awesome find!
"natural"
Why bother testing the culvert in a few different spots? Just take the afternoon and pan the whole thing!
We just wanted to see if there was a difference. We had to be out for a gate closure at a certian time. Now because of a logging strike it's been closed for 9 months so we are patiently waiting on its reopening
@@911mining man, that sucks! I bet you guys are just staring at the clock waiting for the time to come when you can get back to those culverts! What state are you based in?
@@911mining Btw, where did you get that gold pan? I need one. It looks awesome
@@911mining Just ask the logging company for a key. You said you were staking or investigating claims down the road. They are obligated to give you a key. We do it regularly.
I was thinking at the incoming end of the culvert might be a possible honey hole.
It always has to come from somewhere upstream
Very cool what a good idea looking in a drainage ditch.
Always good to find candy.....Thanks...........
Nice i liked.. Good luck brothers
That pan is lame it doesnt stratify properly..... you're wasting pay dirt.
The tests from the lab don't lie. Hands down better than a conventional pan. Well have a review in a week or so where we analyze with a lab ASSAY the tailings from each pan to see what pan lost more fine gold
I can't believe I missed this video.Cheers for the link and can't wait to see the new video.take a wet and dry vacuum.they are quite lightweight.
Why do some canadians pronounce O as oot, like 'boo' and other like: 'boat and 'boot'?
The real question is why do some pronounce it the other way 👍😁🤷♂️.🤔
That place is fantastic!! You guys never cease to amaze!! I think I would want a safety pan under that sq. pan. Looks like the gold could slide right out.
I'd say this guy could probably replace Rick's voice actor.
wow, nice colors. how do you like that pan? seems a bit small & some fine ripples needed on the back side for clean up.
The new pan has a couple cleanup riffles. This is a 3D printed prototype not to the market yet. The new design has some changes. We will be doing a review within a week so far we haven't used a better pan, no classifying needed is also a bonus. The back fits the same as a 10" pan to the brim but you can go though a pan in 60 seconds safely.
Awesome gold nice find culverts are like a sluice thank you for sharing peace out
pretty amazing. I have yet to ever find gold in a culvert
Absolutely incredible. I've THOUGHT to pan these but I didn't ever do it, priority number one for me now much? I can't believe I've been watching golding videos on tons of channels for almost 2 years and this is the first vid with somebody panning these things. THANK YOU. S I'm probably going Saturday if it's 41 and raining to try this now. ;)
Too bad you couldnt run a sluice
Inch and a half of water and waring a life jacket . Whats up with that , LOL
Lol
When can you guys get back and finish a clean out of the culvert?
(upstream & down)
After fire season probably won't be till early September we need a good full week of rain straight with no really hot days after in the forecast before they open the gates
My question is: how much $$$ did you get? How much was it worth?
A couple hundred, well be going back to cleanout the culvert as soon as we have access hope to score a quick payout if the waters not flowing to crazy there still should be gold left.
Looks like a good place for a highbanker. Plus being more efficient.
Looking forward to that video
The pipe that will keep on giving for years to come. I found that horizontal motion pan technique works much better for me and keeps more gold than the traditional way on a round pan. Beautiful country to explore.
utahavalanch is this in utah area?
Rodney Rhonemus
Hi Rodney. I am in Utah but the pipe isn't. Sure wish it was.
BC, Canada
Wow , I'd clean it all out
I was told culverts were a waste of time. This is great news. Thanks for this.video. do you have anymore information on that 3d printed square pan?
Matteo I was told there was an Easter Bunny years ago. Culverts are natural gold traps. They’re built like a pan and there’s constant water flow through them, what’s not to like?
It would make for s fun time trying
Plus you can find other things in culverts as well
We are going to be doing a review where we test this with a regular gold pan the same size and send the tailings in for a SCR21 pan concentrate analysis which will tell us what pan recovered more gold, we placed the same exact amount of fine gold in both pans. The website for the pan www.placertools.com will be avaliable and made live when we release the review. The pan will only go into production I believe if our testing shows it captured better gold than a conventional pan.
Nice pan and beautiful gold
Great find. Great video super GOLD. THANKS
You stated in the video that we are going to see the total amount that you guys got out of the 10 pans.......still waiting to see the total
I hit that Culvert today with my suction dredge. There was more than you thought. Got 3.5 ounces of Gold 😀💙👍
I do this here in Pa an find all kinds of things even very small gold flakes.
I live in an area that had multiple gold rushes and I'm going to start looking
Tons of walk through culverts around because of all the very heavy rain we get at times
Gal darned modern gold rush
O.K. That's just crazy good!
What's that coming over the hill is it sluiceifer
Lol
I'm glad you got a new pan... lololol
I reckon every time it rains you could do another clean out. I like the shovel
did you ever go back
I thought culvert was a natraul sluce tray. M8chigan culverts getting cleaned ..
un ff believebel nice man
Now that's different, great Job, greetings from the Adventures in Gold Rush Team. Keep the Videos coming.
Than it’s my suck ass phone 🤦♂️
Lol
Nice wee pan, akin too the jobe le trap pan 👍
👍From malaysian
imagine whats under the culvert lol or just sitting at the top where it starts
I'll be testing the culverts in my area, that's for sure... I'll even use my hand suction tube to clean it out properly..😊
I have a few culverts I hit on a somewhat regular basis. Yep, they're productive or I would bother. Ya need to clean that out now. One real Gully Washer and it's all going to get blown out.
Where did you get the pan your using?
It's a 3D printed prototype. Not on the market yet we are testing it for a company. We will be doing a review probably within a week. This is the first prototype so the actual pan will have additions.
WOW awesome
Very impressive! It looks like you have someplace to spend a lot of time. That gold must be good from above, below and on the sides too. What fun! 😊 ✨🙌✨
so what is up steam from the culvert.... more gold!!!!!
Those Stupid gold pans why don't you use your super sleuths? How long does that silly thing take to do a half a shovel of dirt? I mean give me a break
What is and where you get that pan?
Www.placertools.com
Design captures fine gold really well.
That gold claw would clean that out In no time.
I dont know about that pan you use there.
Culverts get you out of the sun and rain.
Nice shiny I would come back with a sluice box and clean the colvert out complete, Your pan looks like a paint roller pan but seems to work pretty good.
After that, throw down some moss and come back next year...
I would be bringing 5 gallon buckets and collecting it all with a scoop. Then my last bucket would be using a suction pump. Take it all home and process it all. It might take more time but no telling how much you are missing with the method you are using. I have watched so many videos of people panning and using classifiers and have never figured out why anyone who runs a good test pan would leave any material behind. Classifiers are great but when a person classifies and throws off all the bigger rocks also takes the chance of losing bigger nuggets. And only using methods of processing that catch the small stuff means all you're really going to find is the smaller stuff with the possibility of losing micro gold. I'm only going off observation and what seems to me would be the best way to capitalize on the effort for maximum profit. And If you know a spot that seems to be a good producer I would think laying in two or three five to six foot sections of culvert that could be easily removed ,cleaned out and replaced might not be a bad idea either.Just a thought.
Just my opinion, that gold pan looks painful (figurative) to use. Curious, wouldn't it be more productive to set a sluice on the outlet and sweep the material toward the sluice?
