While you've had hardships viewers are aware of and likely others we're not. The family and locations suggests a truly blessed life. Much appreciation Levi for sharing just a little of that life.
A gold ring with a blue sapphire in it! made from what you have found with your own hands from that beautiful country of yours! That truly is priceless! ✊
Wishing you luck brother. Beautiful day spent with mum and the kids. Too me these gems that joined you on this adventure were the truest gems to have on any adventure. Thanks Levi for a fun filled adventure. You truly are a gem in disguise. Thank you for sharing.
Hello, I would be happy if my "mum" would also go panning for gold. I have to bribe the kids with Nürberger sausages. Was a pleasure to see you. Continued success in your fantastic country. Greetings Tom
Levi your boys will soak up all your knowledge and skills so keep up the family adventures you are an awesome father and your boy’s will return the love you show for them 10 fold when you and the gorgeous wife grow old.All the best from Scotland and heavy pan’s for life.
Nice! Very beautiful stones! Now let's get back on the gold because nothing in that river is prettier than the yellowstone. Lol when I go up to dig in the mountains I dredge or sluice. When I dig I dig into a half 55 gal. Plastic barrel cut in half the long way with a rope weaved thru to pull it with over to my box. I usually run 7 to 10 half barrels thru my box each day. Would love to see you pick a good spot to dig and run a sluice out there. Thanks for the videos and good luck to you Levi! Joe gold
Pretty colours and the stream and ferns so lush. So love the bubble sounds and swishing water to get to sleep 😴 if I wake through the night and have trouble getting back to sleep. Thanks for making these clips of your adventures.
I wonder if they would glow with an underwater black light flashlight making them easier to identify? Very cool concept and great haul all while getting quality family time in. Cheers!
Looks like you and the Family had a lovely day. Next time your going to do a bit of Mineral sniping, bring an UV torch with you. Topaz will pop out with golden-yellow's as well as the Zircon's which have a more mustard brown glow. Really helps narrow in on patches too. Cheers, love your episodes!
What a cool day with the family bud!said it before, but think its awsome that your family love the outdoors and treasure hunting! Thanks cousin Levi!lol
Hey Levi, I started watching your videos a week ago or so and Im hooked. Great videos. Im new at prospecting and you are teaching me a whole lot!! Keep the videos coming.
Way cool brother! Nice to see a change from gold and to something equally as awesome! Sweet finds and thanks for sharing, hope you and the family are amazing!
Levi, not sure if you can get your hands on a waterproof black light flashlight, but those sapphires glow if you shine it on them, might make it easier to see in the water. Really nice video, I love seeing all of you out there having fun, making great memories. Stay well!
Awesome that you are doing this with your family.. I have sent you a photo of the ones I got years ago in Inverell in NSW.. Will send you a company that cut mine by the Carat weight and they send back the ones that are not cuttable.. Cheers Famo59 👍🍻🤓⛏
Gotta love it when you get an idea that's eating at you because you were right.....trust your gut! That's quite a haul! Would a uv light give you a "glowing" edge on some of your gems especially in the darker areas? Quality entertainment....thank you 🤝
Omg this so awesome to watch, funny how gems are everywhere if you know where to look and have the patience. Great videos! I thought this was in New Zealand till I read where you were. Sweet as :)
Hiya Levi, awesome video mate, those are some really cool gemstones, and worth good money too. I'm a rockahalic so to see beautiful gemstones like those is really awesome 😍. And the whole family had a chance to find some beautiful stones too ❤️. I hope you and your family, has a awesome blessed day mate. Cheers! Cya! 😺🐟 out!
Awesome bro! Never thought that would work but actually does, and some amazing results! I think there might be a spot that would be really good for gemstones here in NZ, its got an incredible mix of geolgy and when gold prospecting has about 9 different colours and types of blacksand ranging from brown-black-silver and an insane amount of red garnets of different sizes and some very almost gem like looking material, just not sure if it has any actual good gems as I am currently pretty useless at reconizging them. Keep up the great content!
That spinel looks very similar to the water tumbled obsidian that I find. I find plenty of agate too, but none of those pretty blue sapphires though. Great vid Levi! 👍🙂
Gold prospecting is very therapeutic for me specially when striking a good nugget size. But gem hunting is somehow frustrating at some point as getting a gem quality stone is hard, I would usually find minute or a lot with inclusions on it. Sometimes, I end up catching crabs instead 😂
This was a great idea, might be some bigger gemstones hiding in there! Just as fun to watch too. It's odd that a creek with so much quartz doesn't have any gold
You live on a gorgeous Island approximately 1/3 the size of my state, Oregon, with a population of only half a million, and you can drive to gold, Gems, Lobsters and utter beautiful solitude. Sign me up, do I need a sponsor to immigrate? Hint, hint, nudge, nudge : D Great video Levi, I would love to find gems like that!
Hi, I love your videos, and they are really helping me get an idea of how to start fossicking in the Weld River area. I was just wondering what are the sieves and tools to suck up the sapphire are, and where you got them from. I would really like to use the same tools as you guys so I can use the same methods as you. Also thank you for all you're amazing content!😉
Oh, l do wish l were younger and able to go and do this sort of thing. It looks so amazing seeing all those "Little pebbles" underwater. I am a jeweller and this looks so much fun. Your vid was the first of yours l have seen so l will be looking for more that you've made. Congratulations mate, and lovely to see the family doing it all together. God Bless and cheers for now! 😁😍
wow the forest look amazing it would be a dream to explore it and see what kind of creature and plants live there ... let's protect our forests and be sure it's still there in the future :)
Great to see you out sniping for gems they look cool under the water might be hard to see but when it comes down to panning or sniping panning loses out all the time :-) ATB Brad
was just wondering that maybe using a uv blacklight can make finding some of those stones easier. might be an idea to give that a try on the stones you have to see if any light up under a uv light.
i make a lot more on agates, jade and sapphires than i ever have on gold, i've found a few nice benches but nothing earth shattering. my favorite place to look is where they're dredging, they don't give a hoot about a 500 dollar hunk of jade, they pass it right up, its just a green rock to them
P.S. As a suggestion > Try using a wooden frame with a 1/4 " mesh screen on bottom, add stones and hold overhead to sunlight ! Very easy to reach up and pluck out the gemstones ! Simple but effective! Best ! Grandpa Ron😊
Nice haul!!! I kept looking for a velociraptor to walk out into the river to take a drink! That place looks like Jurassic Park! Stunning!!! Cheers from Atlanta, Georgia USA!!! 🍻🍻🇺🇸🇺🇸💯💯🤘🤘
Was this in the Weld River down near the bridge? You know that it's easier to do that near Hobart in the other Weld River and surrounding creeks/rivers aswell as up in NSW and Qld!
NICE SNIPE AND GOOD TIMES WITH THE FAMILY. WONDERING IF SOME KIND OF COLOR FILTER ON YOUR GOGGLES WOULD ENHANCE FINDING THE SAPPHIRES AND OTHER GEMSTONES? CARAT PRICE OF THOSE GEMSTONES?
Levi , Check out 10:34 > In the center of the black fennel your boy found is a beautiful , clear, "high quality" Deep Blue Sapphire ! To bad you missed it... (Yrs back I prospected for Sapphires in Montanna's Rockies) Best Wishes to you and your family ! Grandpa Ron😊
Beautiful genstone, very colors, here in Brazil too hunt gens, hug, from Brazil .
Good job lad thinking outside the box. 👍

Thankyou Tim
I found a green stone but I don't know what it is, can you help me please.
Family that fossicks together, stays together.
Keep up the great work.
The last black Jack looked like a heart to me. What a great family outing!
The joy of searching and beautiful nature are things that make you really happy. Greetings from Algeria

Awesome trip you had with your family. Can't wait until all my boys are a bit older and were able to do stuff like this
Awesome Levi and family.
Thank you.
Andy
Great to see the family. Good luck be safe 🙏. Hanging out with family priceless.
Awesome day out Levi, I love the fact that your family enjoy getting out there amongst it with you. Your a lucky man.
Pretty colours and the stream and ferns so lush. So love the bubble sounds and swishing water to get to sleep 😴 if I wake through the night and have trouble getting back to sleep. Thanks for making these clips of your adventures.
I always love your videos man. What a beautiful place to spend time. Can’t wait for the weather to turn here.
Well done Levi good for you for having a go at sniping for gem stones, its good to see the family involved as well, great video thanks for sharing.
I wonder if they would glow with an underwater black light flashlight making them easier to identify? Very cool concept and great haul all while getting quality family time in. Cheers!
I don’t think so? Maybe the light will catch a bit.
Shill much?
How is to contract to those who groom children?
Grate video levi this is the only one I have ever seen off sniping for gemstones it's a grate idea off using a black light under water
I'm in love with the beautiful flora. So prehistoric
It's great to see a new and different type of search. Very nice amd thanks for sharing Levi.
Looks like you and the Family had a lovely day. Next time your going to do a bit of Mineral sniping, bring an UV torch with you. Topaz will pop out with golden-yellow's as well as the Zircon's which have a more mustard brown glow. Really helps narrow in on patches too. Cheers, love your episodes!
to touch nature, need to have the right
Thanks for sharing.
I'd like to get into a bit of fossicking and I'm totally new to it, any recommended resources?
@@-LanVin ?
Can’t wait to come over I have a nephew over there might have to have a look around 👍👍👍❤️
What a cool day with the family bud!said it before, but think its awsome that your family love the outdoors and treasure hunting! Thanks cousin Levi!lol
Another top video mate, i always drive over those rivers, sometime I'm gonna jump in and go for it!
Love that little ‘fossicking’ family… 🥰💎😊🇦🇺❤️
Love it Levi! You are rockstar in the rocks!
Hey Levi, I started watching your videos a week ago or so and Im hooked. Great videos. Im new at prospecting and you are teaching me a whole lot!! Keep the videos coming.
Still the best You Tube channel I have ever been lucky enough to come across...way to mix it up Levi...thank you mate 👍
Thank you Levi and family for a awesome video I would love to be able to go out and do this with my family
Way cool brother! Nice to see a change from gold and to something equally as awesome! Sweet finds and thanks for sharing, hope you and the family are amazing!
Now that was awesome congratulations on your haul
Spinel polishes up beautifully with a mirror shine on the facets. Much underrated gemstones and great for jewellery.
I grew up in tassie. When I was a kid we used to go to mole Creek for stones. Give it a try sometime. Used to find alot of fossils there also.
A great day out with the family in another spectacular location. Well done mate and keep up the great content.
Levi, not sure if you can get your hands on a waterproof black light flashlight, but those sapphires glow if you shine it on them, might make it easier to see in the water.
Really nice video, I love seeing all of you out there having fun, making great memories. Stay well!
I was just thinking that would it help?
Pretty rocks ....cool adventure for the family.... but it aint like gold brother!..lol!
Another beautiful area of Tassie, great job Levi awesome collection 😎👍
Oh, l just love watching your prospecting, you're awesome.
Oooh,interesting . Awesome finds 🙌👏🏻👏🏻
Stunning Levi and beautiful sapphires. Great filming 👍
Awesome gemstones Levi 👍
Awesome that you are doing this with your family..
I have sent you a photo of the ones I got years ago in Inverell in NSW..
Will send you a company that cut mine by the Carat weight and they send back the ones that are not cuttable..
Cheers Famo59 👍🍻🤓⛏

Excellent results buddy, those spinel actually cut really nice.
Gorgeous stuff !! Cooke to see the difference in blues they can be !!

😺🐟 out!
Snipping, interesting word. I am sick at home with cancer. Thank you for letting me come with your family.
I watch these types of videos and they make me think of all the stones I want over when Im fly fishing. I know my area has gold and garnets
cool finds fam. keep on having fun fam. GOLD SQUAD OUT!!!
What an absolutely gorgeous location! I’m in boring Ontario.

@Echo Thanks a lot! I will definitely keep my eyes out! Getting over there next week so hopefully can have a good look then :)!

What a wonderful way to spend a day❤
This was a great idea, might be some bigger gemstones hiding in there! Just as fun to watch too. It's odd that a creek with so much quartz doesn't have any gold
Granite has gems and sometimes has gold but a lot of the time it’s just made out of quartz that has no gold
What a beautiful place. I would love to be there. Cool finds.. Have a great day..😎😎😎😎
Beautiful place. Looks like fun!
Awesome finds! Keep the videos coming!
i wonder if the gems would show up better with a uv headlamp, or a red headlamp
Great to see your family involved in this adventure 😁👌👏👏👏❤️❤️❤️❤️
Loved the video! Thanks for sharing!
Good job brother, well done. Mark H (Bali)

That black jack looks amazing cut
Nice! You should mail one or two of the sapphires to the youtuber Vintage Time to have them faceted!
Beautiful scenery awesome video thanks for sharing xx
Beautiful nature and gems.
We have those in Montana as well. Only place other than that I know of to find them
wow the forest look amazing it would be a dream to explore it and see what kind of creature and plants live there ... let's protect our forests and be sure it's still there in the future :)
Awesome looking river.
Great to see you out sniping for gems they look cool under the water might be hard to see but when it comes down to panning or sniping panning loses out all the time :-) ATB Brad
nice one bro cool gemstones

Nice family trip. Can you sell the stones locally?
We're back UA-cam unsuited us 🇺🇸. Keep swinging 💯 Beautiful stones.
Amazing, what kind of environment should look at?
i make a lot more on agates, jade and sapphires than i ever have on gold, i've found a few nice benches but nothing earth shattering. my favorite place to look is where they're dredging, they don't give a hoot about a 500 dollar hunk of jade, they pass it right up, its just a green rock to them
I'd love faceting some of them 💎
Great video, thanks for sharing!
P.S. As a suggestion > Try using a wooden frame with a 1/4 " mesh screen
on bottom, add stones and hold overhead to sunlight ! Very easy to reach
up and pluck out the gemstones ! Simple but effective! Best ! Grandpa Ron😊
Nice haul!!! I kept looking for a velociraptor to walk out into the river to take a drink! That place looks like Jurassic Park! Stunning!!! Cheers from Atlanta, Georgia USA!!! 🍻🍻🇺🇸🇺🇸💯💯🤘🤘
Yeah is crazy country my gold areas are even more so prehistoric looking
Something different Levi! Spinel or corundum? Some gemstones glow under UV light!!!! Good stuff all round!
Nice, such a beautiful place to snipe. I wonder if a separate blue light would help sapphire spotting
Was this in the Weld River down near the bridge?
You know that it's easier to do that near Hobart in the other Weld River and surrounding creeks/rivers aswell as up in NSW and Qld!
That us the most beautiful Forrest I have ever seen.
13:00 I think sphalerite is known as black jack. Nice finds!
Try using different spectrum of light. Some stones would glow with uv black light, so not sure if it might help in someway
NICE SNIPE AND GOOD TIMES WITH THE FAMILY. WONDERING IF SOME KIND OF COLOR FILTER ON YOUR GOGGLES WOULD ENHANCE FINDING THE SAPPHIRES AND OTHER GEMSTONES? CARAT PRICE OF THOSE GEMSTONES?
I hope you have a very pleasant day with the results you get with a lot of struggle...
Nice find and easier than using a pick in iron stone in Rubyvale Queensland.
Yes I’m lucky to just be able to float about that’s for sure
@@officialtassieboysprospecting Yes for sure. Liked and subscribed
Could you use a different coloured light that would react with the blue making them easier to spot perhaps??
Levi , Check out 10:34 > In the center of the black fennel your boy found is
a beautiful , clear, "high quality" Deep Blue Sapphire ! To bad you missed it...
(Yrs back I prospected for Sapphires in Montanna's Rockies)
Best Wishes to you and your family ! Grandpa Ron😊
What is zercon? I just found your channel. Very educational 🧐 I enjoyed it very much. "Thank 😊 you"
First,now onto the video
