Welcome to our channel where we explore the exciting world of gold prospecting and metal detecting.
In this video, we will be uncovering the mystery of how massive gold nuggets form and where to find them. If you're interested in the history of gold mining, gold nuggets, and metal detecting, then you've come to the right place.
Gold nuggets are formed over thousands of years as mineral-rich water circulates through quartz reefs and veins. The water carries tiny particles of gold that eventually accumulate and form larger nuggets. These gold nuggets are typically found near the surface in alluvial deposits or below the surface in hard rock deposits.
One of the best places to find gold nuggets is in Australia, specifically the goldfields of Victoria and Western Australia. These regions have a rich history of gold mining, with some of the largest gold nuggets ever found, being discovered in Victoria. In fact, many experienced gold prospectors believe that there is still plenty of gold to be found in both of these regions.
To maximize your chances of finding gold nuggets, it's important to have the right equipment. Metal detecting is a popular and effective method for finding gold nuggets, and there are many different metal detectors available on the market. When choosing a metal detector, consider factors such as sensitivity, frequency, and search coils, as well as the type of terrain you'll be searching in.
In this video, we'll be using the latest research and techniques to search for gold nuggets in Australia. I will share my knowledge and experience with you, showing you the best techniques for locating gold nuggets in the field. Whether you're a seasoned gold prospector or just starting out, you're sure to learn something new and valuable from this video.
So, sit back and enjoy as we take you on a journey to discover how massive gold nuggets form and where to find them. Make sure to like and subscribe to our channel for more exciting videos on gold prospecting and metal detecting in Australia.

There is a cross cut that was previously found, but they tested and didn't "find anything of note" (poorly done). I came across the same structure removed 632grams of gold bearing quartz, after crushing and panning out it tested at 247oz per ton. The ground is yet to be tested further and is a surface anomaly. Hoping to gain further access to it. Good presentation Bruce.

If they found huge a huge gold nugget using old metal detector technology, then even a $500 dollar machine, could respond to great depth with the larger searchcoiis available to us now, they all are metal detectors, if you know how to use the machine, I know of some old gold mine areas in the usa, I can't wayto try, thanks for sharing the great Australian gold nuggets & areas their found

I think the fact that the majority of Gold nuggets found contain at least a little quartz kind of gives the origin of it away, and also considering that probably 95%> of all Gold found is where Quartz veins are outcropping is also another major clue, i am quite surprised that there was much debate about the origin, it seems rather obvious at least to me it does!!!

Found a strike where quartz was intersecting at 90 degrees at multiple points on a 30 degree incline, the one at surface produced 700 ounce the next 5 going down to about 5 metres produced maybe 150 then last one 120 before pinching out, what would be the next best thing to do without spending big money please

Hi Bruce. Great information thanks 👍 My understanding is that they made a single cast of the Welcome Stranger nugget which ended up in the South Australian museum. It was taken off display several years ago and now resides in a vault in the basement amongst other relics. I enquired why one day and was informed it (the single cast) is simply too valuable to have on display. Go figure.

I collect rocks for my craftworks that are from rivers where folks like to try to find gold, panning and sluices and such. I always wonder if I might luck out and find a bit in some rocks that I cut, since I’m looking for interesting colors and structures. Nothing yet, unless it was too small to see.

I have a patch area that I thought was hammered years ago. I went back last year out of desperation to just find a nugget. I found 12! Went back this winter with a 9" coiltech and found 10 more. Unbelievably, one was a 9 penny and the biggest one found in that particular spot. I did find a 16 penny just over the hill when we first discovered it, but it just goes to show you how you can miss stuff even after thoroughly hunting. Gotta throw everything you got at it! Every coil etc.

I see what you mean about quartz vein structures intersecting but what about volcanic breccia pipes and the gold nuggets found in them? Much nugget gold is found in breccia pipes associated with porphyry copper / gold deposits. Not all nugget patches are linear in shape / length but some are round or irregular too.

I like this guy does not display covetous behavior even though the subject is gold. He is willing to set fourth straight fourth information that could potentially make another man wealthy, and seems to do so without a jealous heart. I’m not a fan of jealous covetous people and unfortunately i see too many of those types in the world. This man as far as I can see, is not one of them. He is cool as fuck, knowledgable, and fourth coming I hope you find a big ol chunk of gold my brothers, whatever your gold may be ❤️

I have another hypotheses that’s inconvenient for the academic geologists. Many gold nuggets form at the roots of trees by bacteria that encrusts the gold to protect the trees from heavy metal toxicity. This is why so many nuggets are found in root balls of trees that have fallen over. My hypothesis was confirmed just 2 weeks ago by a fellow who found 3 such nuggets totaling 1.5 onces hanging from a root ball of a 140 year ago tree growing in a glutch of tailing from an old gold mine in the southeastern U.S., a perpetual mine where over 100,000 once’s of gold were pulled out of the surface over a 100 year period by men using nothing more than long toms 😅⛏️. Experience trumps theory every time 😊
@Part_Time_Prospector
@Part_Time_Prospector 2 месяца назад
Great comment. Just because the scientists say one thing does not automatically mean that all other theories are wrong. Your theory could be more valid than any other! Too often, people jump to the conclusion that the "science is settled" when, in reality, science is never settled. It's just the best theory we have (based on the evidence provided so far). I'm straddling both theories at the moment because there could be more than 1 way nuggets form. Thanks for the comment!

I thought your point made at the beginning of the video was that a scientific study done by the government showed internal cross sections of sliced nuggets to be 100% molten at one time and not grown by biology? Many academic folks here in the usa thought similar about bacteria grown nuggets but are strangely quite on that subject after the Australian study now. I agree that the story isn't over until the fat lady sings but what about those Australian government studied polished cross section textures? Where and what is the new evidence rather than theory to suggest otherwise?
@MrMoonFlame
@MrMoonFlame Месяц назад
Search google scholar for evidence of biology playing a role in gold nugget formation. You have to wonder if there is an agenda underway in Australia to convince the broader public that biology places no role in nugget formation?

That doesn't make sense. If large nuggets are formed at depth then the deeper you dig in a mine the larger pieces of gold should be. Just the opposite is generally true. The deeper you in most mines the finer and less the quantity of gold tends to get.

It could be because of your accent, but then you put some sort of musical instrument in the background further obscuring your voice. Why do you do that? Do you think we clicked on your channel for entertainment, or because we wanted to learn something?
