Gold panning, metal detecting, rock hunting, crystal collecting and mining adventures with Dan Hurd.
Most videos on this channel have something to do with mineral prospecting, mining and gold panning and rock hunting. Many are educational lessons I give to my "Gold Mining and Mineral Prospecting" class. (I'm a high school teacher) Others are videos of me checking out claims I am prospecting. If you would like to learn to gold pan, learn where to look for gold, or how to find gold, learn about the gold mining industry or gold processing wash plants, lapidary work or rock hunting, this might be the channel for you. If you like what you see, please comment, like, and subscribe.
Dan, I was wondering if you check the classifier before you dump them. I ask, because there (could be) the chance you could find quarter+ garnet. Or am I showing my ignorance on this topic.
I would image those laws that say you can't take raw gravels is to prevent people just hauling out tons of dirt and causing too much erosion or something like that?
Dan,thank you for sharing the difference between mines.I didn't know,and live in Gold country.I want to find rocks in our creeks,not gold,so this helps me in talking with the local companies that have claims on the river.I hope they will let me get the tiny amount of rocks that I am interested in.
They make these sweet little front and rear drive dirt bikes Dan. They don’t go real fast but they have baskets front and rear and use like a mower type of motor. A lot of the Forrest service and dirt bike trail maintenance crews use them because you can haul all your stuff pretty much anywhere you want to go. They use like a fat tire more like a quad front tire. Get one of those and you’ll be able to go anywhere you want to go.
No this is forestry deactivation. and a quad can't get over it easy without hours of work, and it goes for about 400 feet, 45 degree slope and soft dirt....
Thanks so much for this video Dan.. Such a hard time for Junior mining companies right now... but with the price of gold/copper going up and all the amazing things GZD has in the works its bound to shift... Now .if we could stop all the short sellers up here and the TSX startes to actually do something about it ..urghh.. All I know is that GZD will never give up , do a reserve split and will keep doing everything we can to succeed and we got LOTS IN THE WORKS... Thanks all for the support #GZD #GZDIF
Hey Dan! Great videos all around. I have been watching a few different mining and prospecting channels and someone you know hasn’t posted a video in a while. Andythraxx Mining. Just wanted to know if you know if he’s ok. I understand life happens but it was very abrupt. Anyway, thank you for the entertaining videos and geology lessons. Knowledge is power as they say
