  • FINDING GOLD IN RIVERS AND CREEKS AFTER WINTER FLOODS!!
    In this video I return to a river to have a go at finding gold in one of my favourite creeks after winter floods.
    I sniped gold in this location last year and prospected 13g of gold in a single day. Its been 12months since I've been to this location and I’m hoping the winter and spring floods may have replenished the gold back into two very rich crevices that I worked on the first trip. The stakes are high the adventure has just begun stay tuned!!

    Hey hope your all doing well, what’s been your experience with floods and gold have you found gold in places you’ve previously worked after floods? Does the gold replenish after winter floods or does it take a major flood. Would love to hear your thoughts on the subject.

      @ferdburphel2076 3 роки тому +1

      I'm glad you covered this 👍! There are so many variables along with flooding....how old is the original deposit and has the flow and gold line changed since the original deposit? Was there an obstruction ahead of the crevice that is gone now or vice-versa? Here's the biggest head game that'll never make it clear......did someone beat you back there and got 10 grams?🤯 Great job getting in there!

      By testing and experimenting we can come to know with certainty about things we otherwise theorize and conjecture about. Often our beliefs are confirmed, but even better when we discover we were wrong to think a particular way... what better way to discover a better path and to see the world as it truly is? Test and experiment on that creek enough, and you will know it for certain better than anyone in the world. Maybe you already do.

    Good luck to you brother. And upstream or Downstream you will find more gold in virgin areas that have never been sniped. One area produce good gold but one year later not much maybe 100 more years go to the areas that are untouched and you will find more. By the way your miners secret about the 44 Graham nuggets you found the texting is not embarrassing at all because you earned it and you certainly worked hard hiking hundreds of miles through the bush to find standards grave and Feingold so you may yet find a giant nugget in the river or Creek like 5 oz or something! Keep going brother I just got out of the Bush 5 days in the rain typhoon of Northern California and I got skunked I found it hundreds of micro specs and a few dozen flakes is all on the South Yuba River I will keep hunting I am going back! Never give up!

      @@officialtassieboysprospecting well I believe the Mercury I find is from the old timers, that weren’t too careful about spilling it, there is a whole lot less of it than when I was younger (lots of Nature groups have cleaned it up, and I use to do that with one of them [Sierra club before they became too political]). I even have a special snuffer bottle just for cleaning up Mercury when I find it. I try and be a good steward of the rivers and waterways of which I pan. I once found a whole bottle of Mercury in an old glass jar with a glass stopper like it had just been left there moments before. I took it to a local mining museum and the lady who was the curator, gave me $500.00 USD for it she said the bottle was worth about $200.00, and the Mercury was worth about $50.00, she said the rest was for being a good boy, (I thought she was going to give me some milk and cookies too, but she didn’t). I kind wish I still had it but, I was young and needed 500 more than a bottle of Mercury. Anyhow really appreciate your videos, and hope you have a wonderful year prospecting. Think we all could use a good year after the last one.
