- I revisit a special location only to find that I'd been beaten to the punch. Plan B paid off though, and I was able to salvage the mission with an awesome haul of gold......but it wasn't without disappointment.
Well..!!
Do you leave the keys to a helicopter 🚁 in the ignition. Hide it or take a chance that you don’t lose them while you walk about.?
Well hopefully that’s enough to cover your Fuel ⛽️ expenses.
It’s Every prospector dreams of hi own helicopter 🚁 to prospect..
Cheers Famo59 👍🍻⛏️
Yeah Famo, keys are left in to avoid losing them. I'll take them out only if I suspect there's a possibility of conflict.....so rarely.
G'day JB really enjoy watching your videos you've got down pat as a film maker, really well done, never get tired of watching prospector's having a win, cheers mate good luck 😊😊😊😊😊
Thanks mate, really appreciate that.....looking forward to getting out there for some more. Cheers for watching.
Right on man, that’s a great haul. It will pay for your gas on the chopper plus some right ?
Sure will. It helps that I am working real close to where I prospect, making the cost of access minimal. 👌
Great to get out! Thanks for bringing us along. Do you run the 6k on difficult ground, one notch up from the lowest for sensitivity in that hot soil? Also, Keen has a pretty good fiber glass handle pick :)
Awesome, I'll check out the Keene Pick.
I run the 6000 in squiggly lines (difficult ground) on the highest level possible, as long as I'm getting that nice threshold hum while searching for a patch. Once a patch is found, if I can run flat lines, then I absolutely will, as there are a few 'dead zones' in squiggly lines when using a Mono Coil. If you can't run flat lines at all, go grab the DD and run that bad boy on the highest possible setting.
In saying all that, once I've found a patch, I alternate between so many settings AND Coils. 👌
Was thinking you would be out a lot further with the chopper but the buggers still stumbled onto your patch.😤
We’re on our way over there now so hopefully we’ll find some good areas to check out. Any hints would be welcome 🙏
We're actually in some really remote country......it's quite the slog to get into by quad bike, so I was surprised to even see tracks.
What brand digging pick do you have. And where is all girls. They were good
I use a CC's pick. Got a great head on it.
The girl will be back soon!!
Love to watch you pulling that gold out. But, if you continue to not fill your holes in, you’ll continue to leave a “map” for the next guy to steal your gold after you put in all the hard work.
They do get filled once I'm finished there.....I leave them open during my day for good visual reference of the patch.
If gold is available, why not carry out an integrated mining operation?
We have pegged the land, but it is a long and drawn out process before we can put a digger in there. But, it is happening!! Thanks for watching.
Hopefully you can pay for the fuil and then make some money with big nuggets
We are onto that!! 👌
I would imagine your 40 e is in place or it’s vacant land or pending
All pending mate 👌
Bloody boot tack😩well the ol timers where there for a reason keep swinging 👍
You bet!!
Omg what's up with all the flies? Is it always like that, everywhere?
Haha....only in the warmer months.
Man o man, you must reach such untouched areas m8:-))). Must be living the dream🙂
We do mate, but gold is always where gold has been found in the past, generally speaking 👌
@@JBHELI This is a very true statement. If I ever came to Australia, do you take people out for gold detecting? Thanks for sharing your videos and experiences. Kr Mike
Some beautiful pieces mate
👌 Sure are.
Should do a gold melting video
Cheers!! I'll see what I can do. 🍻
👍😁🥂
🍻🍻
This is how I want to find Aussie Gold, if i ever visit Australia from Auckland.
I missed a Free Army training trip in 1988.
She's a bloody good life. Hopefully you'll get over some day!!
Good trip man, nothing wrong with that apart from the broken pick n quad intruders n boot tacks 😧🤣😂 but a gold result anyway 🤙🏽
Always worth the effort. 👌
No sound...
The sound is great on my end , might be on your end ?
Not sure mate. Good this end.
JB Mate, at least the gold ratio to boot tacks is correct. I have a steel handle in my pick because of that problem.
Maybe worth considering mate. 👌
Not a bad effort for the time JB👌….PS. Flathead screwdriver👌👍
I searched high and low. 😅😅
Great stuff mate bugger the pick ay cheers from Tassie
Hey again Sharon!! Hopefully the Tassie winter isn't too freezing for ya. 🥶🥶
That black headed python 🐍 was a nice specimen 😅
Beautiful hey!!!
Great work mate ..got to excited with the pick after finding that nice one 😂
Haha, I absolutely did, trying to rip that mound down 😅
I love all you guys out there looking for gold in Australia good luck
Thanks mate!!
How good is the sound of booo wooo low high and be Gold 😊. Well done. Cheers 🍻
So good
Good video and Audio quality .
Great!! Cheers!!
Well done JB, nice haul 👌🇦🇺
Cheers Rick!!
I'm jealous.
🙏
Oh and if you do good but someone with a drone and see your digs opps and what cought my attention was the remark about not filling your holes besides a drone goggle earth will show where you are digging and I bet you're going where no one can get easily im just wishing you the best and be safe and good luck ill probably binge watch your videos today
It's no secret where the gold is....people have been there for years. 😊
