still wanna come up there and hang out one weekend, maybe early fall, when day time temps don't top 80 degrees, so can camp in the drive way next to the shop, (roof top tent on my gladiator),. We could go do a little prospecting on Saturday , run some concentrates, get a gram or two of the shiny stuff... really liked the quartz find ,and the hammer mill thingy....looked like copper in the raw samples but glad you found gold!
Maybe a bit of line digging? See if that quartz vein runs into the river.? Then a bit of sniping on a sunny day if it does.. Anything just downstream of it would be pretty sweet I think... but it could still be just a baby...😎
Awesome find Jason! Im in WI as well. Took a trip to the source of my local river but no quartz yet. Btw, I use an aussie-style dolly pot to crush my ore. Got it from a welder dude in MT for $80. Works pretty fast with classifiers.
I made a portable kit thats fits in my backpack to crush, classify and pansluice quartz in the field. When classified, under say 20mesh. Quartz is so easy to pan sluice. Can I email pics of my setup? I made a sweet duct tape classifier that is molded to my big pan. I also added 10mesh screen to cover the 1/4 inch classifer that comes with the big Garrett pan. This setup is made for your situation.
Congratulations on that rare find! If I want to prospect for anything but fossils and fossilized wood, I would have to travel away from Mississippi. It really sucks being a prospector in a state known to have no gold.😫😭
@@FlourgoldWizards Methinks you are trying to eliminate the middleman. Why wait the millions of years for the vein to be broken down, ground down a few billion more years and depositing gold into the krik sometime in the next gazillion years. Don't Wait! Get it Now!
That little mill seemed to do a good job. Can't tell for sure about the gold looking particles, but they could be. The silver could easily be tramp iron from the grinding. You might do a magnetic separation and see what happens. If it is actually gold, that is some very good grade.
Well that was a surprising result 😳… that being said before you run another sample flush your mill out with water the best you can that way you know your not cross contaminated from any other crushing you’ve done. Then you’ll know for sure it’s a pure sample definitely looked like gold to me THATS CRAZY 🤩 thanks for sharing see you on the next one 👍🏼👊🏼 p.s. the deeper you go the better the gold gets usually and there will be more gold on one side of the vein than the other AND there could be gold in the rock the quartz vein sits next to (1-3 inches from the vein) so check that as well
Wisconsinite here, been into foraging and precious things for a long time but just started to get into refining, panning, etc. Keep up the content. I've read there is a lot of gold deposits near the Menomonee River.
Awesome find. Definitely good. Looks like a quartz intrusion into the country rock. Gold wears an iron cap. You found the best of the best. You think your excited? Boy howdy, I'm excited for you. Now you need to delineate the deposit. Maybe depth. Proper certified assays. You'll have fun. Is property available. I know plenty out of work miners. Sink an exploratory shaft.😊
@FlourgoldWizards She got the gold mine. I got the shaft. I was also thinking about your pit. Twice I've set up a sand cleaner at pits. They needed clean sand for cement. Put in a big sluice. Yea, they didn't catch a lot of gold per yard but they did running multiple yards. Thirty five cents a yard don't sound like a lot at 280.00 an ounce. But you run 1000 yards a day...
Great great find Jason and this might open more gold crushing opportunities very interesting 🤔🤔🤔 that scope you got is pretty cool too 😮🤔 definitely next time you go to the quartz Vein bring your equipment from the tool trailer. Who knows what other kind of gold is in there you might find some bigger stuff too. That would be great opportunity to find some quartz with gold.Great video as always bud ⛏️⛏️⛏️Out for now ✨⛏️😃😎
Crushing the quarts was awesome, I live Oroville California we have huge amounts gold just have to get out and get it. I have never been skunked . Luv your show Rigby Rex an all the other miner pups.
There are 'geobotanical indicator' plants which can help in finding minerals. They might help in finding the highest concentration areas of metals/minerals in soil, sediment, and rocks. There are plants for gold, silver, and lead, among others. Today with smart phones it should be easy to identify plants. I don't know the indicator plants but articles, lists, and photos can be found on the Internet. I know one weird plant that I saw as a youth in the section of land we lived within in Missouri. It turned out to be a silver indicator plant. Where seen in that section, it was probably indicating a small patch of galena with silver content. Saw it in Wyoming, too, on some sandstone area that had black sand content.
@@TheSilmarillian A prolific geologist in Wyoming named Dan Hausel was tipped about an opal deposit in Wyoming. He went out and found it huge, and that it was not just common opal but included fire and precious. He wrote the BLM or maybe it was USFS demanded to know where it is.

Twisted Viking Mushrooms from MI(that's me) says oyster mushroom that is a hair past prime. If I don't harvest on time, my oysters will look like that. Cobbles!🍻
You don't want to be too noisy until you know what you have got. I would be as quiet as I could and just get a way bigger sample with small hand tools and keep it all hush hush . You don't want to advertise it and get kicked off the property.
@@FlourgoldWizardsI have 3 placer claims that I have found some quartz veins on but I haven't had time to take a proper look at them. I don't own the hard rock rights on my claims but I am very curious. I am going to have to get out there and take some samples. And then play it by ear.
Hello from Australia humble opal miner here . Understand the work that goes into prospecting, 1 must shift a large quantity of dirt to find the prizes , good prospecting great upload indeed. Noticed the Australian NZ flag on the wall , the square bit and extra star?
There was a TON of quartz all around my dad's house when I was a kid. I remember looking at a few of those chunks and seeing what looked like gold in them. I'm actually kinda shocked that I haven't seen you prospecting for quartz and the potential gold in it in more videos as some of those "cobbles" and "Chris Lily Rock Of The Week(s)" that you've been tossing aside for years could well have had the motherlode in them.
The gray lines running through that quartz look like sulfides. Jason over at Mount Baker does hard rock mining, and his quartz is full of that stuff, which is where he says the gold is... That's definitely a nice find! Definitely gold! Cobbles. 🍻
Might be worth contacting Jason from Mount Baker mining to get his opinion on that. You found the source of the gold of the creek for sure not just to find the pay zone!
Liked, shared and commented. Great trip. 2 jackpots. A pit and a vein. Both containing gold. “We’re gonna need a bigger truck”. Good luck buddy. 🍻🗽🤴🏻 27:54
Jason ! Well Done. The quartz seam looks promising. Get a set feather wedges for that quartz in the ground, i think....... Love yer dogs. Bowser is a stud, but Rigby is still THE Man.
You earned the Wizard Name again - It seems this gold found you. Except for the part of having to get up, get out, and down the road. Knowing before you left the house - the water was too high. I suspect the back pack will be iron laden for the next run. Hopefully it's not one of those 61 thousand & three mile hikes Bowser is doing well in the field, good team of noses you have there!
Holy Wa!! You got gold. Awesome video Jason. Looks like plan B paid off. The quartz vein and the gravel pit produced. Really cool and thanks for the great video. Cobbles to ya 🍻. Holy Wa, Hey??
Hi Jason, with all the rain how about going back to the dry creek bed with your tank of water. Perhaps things were washed out. Thank you for your adventure ...
I found a quartz vein when I was Deer hunting brought one chunk home about 300 pounds of it still sits outside maybe time to look at it to see what it may have inside. nice find Jason .
Amazing Jason ! Great find and test run ! So glad you took my advice after you tossed that one back into the river ! To be honest I cringed a little when you Chris Lilly yourself. Sweet revenge my friend.. Cobbles to you buddy 🍻
Now that’s what I’m talking about! Way to keep your eyes open brother amazing vein outcropping. That pinkish material looks like maybe Rose quartz inclusion possibly? AUsome we really enjoyed this video sir. You really have hit the motherload congratulations. This is what we all dream about.👍😎🎩⚒️G.P.
👋🏼 wow! 2 amazing spots in one day! 🍻🍻🍻 👍 btw,, ,,, that fine gold in the gravel was about the size of what we found in maine recently ,,, n we threw it back n told it grow up 🤭😂🤣
It's great to see you and ole' rigbone wandering around!.... Water is crazy high here as well pal, I am still locked out of my favorite gravel bar.... But hey, we make due and have fun anyways!
Lord knows what a man can find in those woods with his ancestral pride in his hand ! You gone and found yourself a nice sulphide rich quartz outcrop Brother ! Hot Diggidy Dog !!
@@FlourgoldWizards You should be as that tiny sample showed up some nice gold and so for sure as you go down deeper into that quartz the gold content will increase i am sure ! You need to take a good jackhammer out there and go deeper into it !
Jason if you put your quartz specimens in the oven and put the oven as high as it will go and bake them for three or four hours. Take them out of the oven. dump them in a bucket of water. The ore will break up really good with much less effort. I built a bigger Rock crusher out of brush grinder. (Mulcher) All I had to do was close in the areas that let the chips of wood come out. Hooked up a Shop-Vac to the side shoot. The back picks up all the 100 - powder. Then you shut it down and open the bottom door and everything comes out. Generally I break it up to 3/4 - at first I didn't do that. Anything larger than 3/4 - was smacking against the housing and beating dents in it and it's not real thin metal. Mighty Mills are nice if you only want to test. If you end up opening that vein up. You definitely need something bigger than the mighty Mill. 🤔👍
@@FlourgoldWizards Jason the one I built only cost me $130 dollars. I saw the same mulcher on Facebook marketplace and it was $200 I have about a hundred and thirty pounds of ore I've been getting from California And honestly to tell you the truth The ore you have there is better than a lot that's being sold on eBay. I've got about 40 lb broke up small enough to put through the mill. If You want to come over to Minnesota, I can show you how it works and how I built it. It will grind to 2 gallon bucket of ore in 15 minutes.
Jason thats awesome great find next thing you know you will need larger equipment and that will be another learning experience for you And us all right there with you thanks for another great vid Chris the porch miner
Keith & Eva were looking for ore ;) The commute maybe an issue ? We just need to see more bedrock - to fined quarts / need more mountains & valleys . Good fined --- hopefully your buried you find before you left !!!
A good metal dector might be handy to bring along when finding those quartz veins! Cobbles 😊 Also if you don't mind waiting , dissolve the quartz in a strong acid bath , and if lucky gold web might be the result.
@FlourgoldWizards I watched a video once about dissolving quartz rocks in some kind of solution in order to produce artlike specimens . Worth way more than the weight of the gold in them. Collectors will pay premiums for them. The key was to know when to stop and remove them from the solution. If you left them in there, long enough eventually all that would be left is the gold but they are more valuable as quartz/gold specimens.
4:10 that is awesome 💯 cool to find that hey I got to meet and hang out with some of your buddies from Michigan they came down and visited me Steve found a picker
Eureka Yeee Haaa Well done Jason. Well Quartz’s out crop and a dirt sand pit.. Now you might have to stake a gold clamp. Well I got to put another video up on Saturday morning and more at the end of this week. Cheers Tony 👍🍻⛏️
Jason, a few years ago I switched from the usual 5 gallon different color buckets to black HDPE buckets in 5 and 7 gallon sizes. They are much stronger and the plastic does not become brittle and cracking from the UV light in sunlight. They are available in bulk on Amazon.
@@FlourgoldWizards pretty sure its Pleurotus pulmonarius Double check for local lookalikes in your area, but here (PNW) They are fairly distinct from others. Just make sure they are not orange/duff/darker brown, which could be Omphalotus olivascens (Jack-o-Lantern mushroom.
Rigby, Rex and, Bowser better get extra treats for sniffing up that big quartz/gold vein!! They need it they’re hard working miners!
They certainly are ! 🐕🦺🐕🐺😃🍻
Yes they are they knew it had gold all trying to higrade it while you were getting it, those raskely miners
@@FlourgoldWizardstake a look at OLOPHILIA diy dry gold shaker concentrater.

Mighty Mills are nice if you only want to test. If you end up opening that vein up. You definitely need something bigger than the mighty Mill. 🤔👍
Im looking at a slightly larger mill 😃
@@FlourgoldWizards Jason the one I built only cost me $130 dollars.
I saw the same mulcher on Facebook marketplace and it was $200 I have about a hundred and thirty pounds of ore I've been getting from California And honestly to tell you the truth The ore you have there is better than a lot that's being sold on eBay. I've got about 40 lb broke up small enough to put through the mill. If You want to come over to Minnesota, I can show you how it works and how I built it.
It will grind to 2 gallon bucket of ore in 15 minutes.

Jason I've decided to move west. I will be selling my rock crusher.

High plains prospecting is gonna send me a nice one ! 👍🏻
Jason thats awesome great find next thing you know you will need larger equipment and that will be another learning experience for you And us all right there with you thanks for another great vid Chris the porch miner
You got that right!thanks Chris 🍻
Keith & Eva were looking for ore ;)
The commute maybe an issue ?
We just need to see more bedrock - to fined quarts / need more mountains & valleys .
Good fined --- hopefully your buried you find before you left !!!
It’s still there…😃
Woohoooo, great one Jason I hope there are years of content for us to view of your mining adventures.
Be sure to stake that claim.
That's the plan!
9:30. Thought it was called a "crik," Jason. Now i don't know what to think
Krik - kreek - whatever works 😃
A good metal dector might be handy to bring along when finding those quartz veins! Cobbles 😊
Also if you don't mind waiting , dissolve the quartz in a strong acid bath , and if lucky gold web might be the result.
Heck yeah! Those big slabs of quartz out there might make for some beautiful art pieces!
All excellent suggestions!
@FlourgoldWizards I watched a video once about dissolving quartz rocks in some kind of solution in order to produce artlike specimens .
Worth way more than the weight of the gold in them.
Collectors will pay premiums for them. The key was to know when to stop and remove them from the solution. If you left them in there, long enough eventually all that would be left is the gold but they are more valuable as quartz/gold specimens.
Wow! I can’t wait to see how much will yield from that vein. I thought all the gold that is in Wisconsin came from further north.
Most probably does !
That mighty Mill is cool! Hope you can get down to the water when its not so high. Great video and info. Thanks
I hope so too!
Nice find, quartz vein.
Heck yeah ‘
4:10 that is awesome 💯 cool to find that hey I got to meet and hang out with some of your buddies from Michigan they came down and visited me Steve found a picker
I got to see that vdr Matt in action that's what he got that picker on
The VDR is for real !
Nice oyster mushrooms! Yep, edible and good!
That’s good to know!
Great video Jason. Thanks for sharing⚒⚒
Glad you enjoyed it🍻😃😃😃
I gotta find a vain here in s.e. Michigan... Hope I can find something...😉👍
You'll find it if you keep searching!
Eureka Yeee Haaa
Well done Jason.
Well Quartz’s out crop and a dirt sand pit..
Now you might have to stake a gold clamp.
Well I got to put another video up on Saturday morning and more at the end of this week.
Cheers Tony 👍🍻⛏️

Totally enjoyed the episode. Wow Wow Wow ❤
Glad you enjoyed it😃✅
Congratulations on finding this location. I can’t wait for the future videos
More to come!
Good thing i/ rained so much😊
You’re absolutely right!!!
Yoooo. That dry bed. From last fall. Perfect after the rain.
Agree!!!
Jason, a few years ago I switched from the usual 5 gallon different color buckets to black HDPE buckets in 5 and 7 gallon sizes. They are much stronger and the plastic does not become brittle and cracking from the UV light in sunlight. They are available in bulk on Amazon.
Good tip!
It's one of my favorite episodes. Ur doing it all now, jason. Awesome
Sure trying!
@FlourgoldWizards not trying Jason. Ur doing it sir
Claim that up! I see some hard rock action in your future!! Nice indeed!!
Oh yeah!
Oyster mushroom? If so, it's a choice edible
40 years of collecting edibles sez, "I concur".
Yes oyster mushroom.
That’s what I suspected! Thank you!
@@FlourgoldWizards
Hey brother when you go back tak a battery powered shop vac with you.
Thanks for another much needed video.😂😂😂🇺🇸🇨🇦🇺🇸
@@FlourgoldWizards pretty sure its Pleurotus pulmonarius
Double check for local lookalikes in your area, but here (PNW) They are fairly distinct from others.
Just make sure they are not orange/duff/darker brown, which could be Omphalotus olivascens (Jack-o-Lantern mushroom.
Well that's a good bucket,that gravel pit is pretty good dirt
I agree!
