He would have made money doin it for them. He would have been running the material through one of his wash plants, then sold the clean washed rock back to them, while gettin the gold out all at the same time. He knows what he is doin.
I love how films always depict the Yukon gold rush as American... Yukon is in CANADA, a different country. Amy Americans mining up here were foreigners...
Derek Bois Lets go D-Rock!! You wanna act like a tough guy, lets see whatcha got!! Theres gonna be two hits....me hittin you and you hittin the ground big boy!!!
Problem with dredges is moving them. When the ground stops paying, what do you do with the dredge? Move it? Ask Tony Beets about that. He probably spent over a million dollars moving the first dredge he bought.
Considering how much gold the company who ran this dredge made....surely they should have tidied up after themselves... donated it too Canada sounds a lit like dumped it to me...
wait a minute...did i hear it right...992000 Ounces of gold worth over a million dollars..that can't be right...more like closer to around a billion or just short of a billion even at the ounce price for those times...help me out am i right or wrong
The video was referencing 992050 grams (not ounces). About 28 grams in an ounce. You also have to take into account inflation ($1million dollars back then in today’s money is $$$)
Shouod I quit my job and go buy a dredge? Does everyone have the overwhelming urge to go gold mining or is it just me? I've never been and dont live anywhere near where gold can be found, but its always been calling me.
