Hey Everyone! Thanks for watching the video! Let’s aim for 500 Likes and i’ll give away a diamond once we reach 10,000 Subscribers!! Thank you all for the support!⛏💎👍
What a great video! We're planning a trip up to COD in the middle of this coming November. I appreciate that you made this video to instruct others, it shows a character equal to the value of the diamonds you seek. Many others would hoard this information for selfish means but you've chosen to help. Thank you for your efforts to guide others in their search.
I do something similar, I search for diamonds in storage units. I have found probably over 100 in the past 5 years the biggest being over 1 carat and being mounted in 14k gold. My way seems to be much less labor intensive.
This is a really great adventure. Very interesting way to find the gravel. Thanks for sharing some of your trade secrets with the community of prospectors.😎👍👍👌👌⛏⛏
Great, informative, and interesting video as always. And I know you were upset about the algorithm recently but don't let it get you down. Your content is always great to watch. I say if you are going diamond mining anyways you might as well film it, it really helps those of us who can't get out to mine ourselves scratch that itch for mining. Anyway I hope you get some nice diamonds real soon for all that hard work and effort you have been putting in - especially in that sweltering heat.
Great video, glad to have you back at the Diamond Mine. Like that probe. Did you hear the other day about the guy that left his stuff at the wash station and went to get another bucket of gravel and went he got back all his stuff was gone. His screens and his brand new seruca. Said there were a couple of ladies there when he left and they were gone along with his stuff when he returned. Doesn't know if they took it or someone else. Bad stuff.
Thats terrible to hear some people cant keep their hands off others belongings. another reason why I like my classifiers and recommend them because you’re able to lock them up with a combination cable. Plus they are different from any classifiers. Thanks for watching !
Awesome tip!! Definitely want to go back and explore and dig once it gets cooler. Still in search of my first diamond!! Hope you are doing well my friend!! Be safe and stay well!!
I'll be there right after Thanksgiving. It's on the way back to Houston from the midwest, so I figured why not to give it a try. Zero experience in this type of activity, but these videos are very useful.
@@joshuaashleysandbank5182 They will let you rent certain tools, but you're better off if you bring your own quit equipment, that way you know you have what you want to work with. Their equipment is not near as good as his, and I have gotten misleading information. These videos have been very informational for me, because when I go out there, they tell me different things than what his experience has shown me. And, you don't have to spend a lot more money to rent equipment.
Whaaa..washing stations with troubled waters? Last time I was there they had a pump handle for water and you had to hand process evidence with your own buckets...about the time you were born.
Excellent information! i’ll be making a new probe this week. Mine was 1/2” shaft, got stuck at the crater. If anyone finds my 15’ probe 1/2” shaft. please let me know. Great video Diamond Miner Ivins!👍🤙
Thank you for showing your techniques. I thought that one stone looked like a diamond too! Now I also realize I need to be sure I have a tetanus booster before I go back! 😆
Very informational videos. We are headed there in June, and we had no idea that it was so much work. Thanks for the tips!! Do you find arrow heads also?
Those centers were amazing!! You are definitely on to something! How hot was it when you were here? I would like to come out and help you get more buckets per day. I dont want anything but just to help you increase your chances of getting a diamond. Let me know if you would like to meet up this fall. Nice work! Love this video. Great work brother!!
Im always looking for extra help out there! lol It was triple digits im sure. its always 10 degrees hotter on the search field because of all the rocks, and clay. we are in a oven baking when down in a hole of volcanic material
What tray are you talking about at home? Can you make a few videos of how you do your final clean up or processing? that would be realy helpful to a newbe like me. Love the videos Mr Ivins. TY, Mike from Orange, Tx.
Grease table was the worst way to try to recover diamonds there’s so many things that have to be perfect for the Diamond‘s will not stick. Thanks for watching !
@@DiamondMinerIvins been there done that I was one of two people that got to dredge with a 5-inch on elk River we came up ounce sized nuggets the next River over and I will say one of the best salmon fishing rivers in the country had 20 dredges on it their biggest we're smaller than our smallest elk River did not have any fine gold sixers River had all the fines no because of irresponsibility we can no longer do what helped the habitat fed hundreds of fish every year when the hatchery couldn't produce the quantity or quality put a sport of Greece across the bottom plate using a sluice box where you're at with the right material I can eliminate 3/4 only take back what you need no the 3-inch rock you wash off and throw away minus material that counts
Brother, i can give you a pointer on aquiring a killer probe . Go to a car junkyard find a older model car lift the trunk lid the springs that hold up the trunk is what you want. 1/4 inch dia. they vary in size so you can have a choice . most already have a handle cut off one end and sharpen it to a point. done deal real simple opp. Now why these are sooo good they are made of spring steel big ringing sound when it hits chert and heavys dull sound on limestone and sandstone. believe me been using several for years to find artifacts and i have found many with this method . try it you won't believe the results.
I totally see, DMI makes it look easy. What about attaching a cup, and even magnetic paint, see the hematite, hear the chart? Very Cool! Probably work in river beds and other such.
@@GGhiedelainetheinvisiblevet You won't believe how good it actually works till you have one in your hand it hits flint chert it is loud sand stone is dull and moving side to side on sandstone or limestone it grinds I figured it out by myself it is the spring steel that makes it work mild steel thread rod works but not like spring steel. the probes i have have found me many points under the surface and on top i drag it as i walk and ding what was that ,,,,,,,,,,,,,score and i wasn't even looking ....
Love that you drag it and the sound alerts you, too cool!!! Thanks for sharing in details. Just makes me more feverish to go and rough n tough it out! 👍🤙
nice video thanks for sharing it i'm learning a lot from you... first time I want I was so lost didn't know what the hell I was doing but next time I will find at least one diamond for sure or i'm not leaving... was that a diamond by the way it so looked like one?
I spotted that, what you thought was a diamond also, when you 1st put camera on that center, my eyes zoomed straight to that. I'm curious. Was it a diamond?
The crater is a large opened field. They have it safe for the guest. Hurricane season is a good time to be there! Lots of diamonds being found! thanks for watching !
