Metal Detecting for Gold Nuggets in WA 2014 (pt 5) 

If someone told me that I would sit here for 15 minutes watching a man dig a hole.... It's just so much fun watching the treasure hunt!!! We have gold in California, but I love the Australian gold fields. Thanks for sharing!

That is a dandy right there! Thanks for taking us along NM. I love your video's!!!

Excellent find. I’d love to get back to WA. 😀⛏⛏

There was a lot of good instructional stuff in that video, both in what was said, and in the way the hole was developed and the waste removed. Thank you. I did appreciate the skill shown.

Mate ,your living the life.Thanks for sharing. I love prospection, I love metal detector obrigado pelo video e boa sorte! joão from Brazil

Love watching these clips to see the joy when they find gold but am a bit skeptical when someone goes diging in red dirt in a pure white and remains so clean.

Love your videos mate, getting me excited to go try some prospecting over here in NZ. Keep up the good work :)

That was a nice return for 16 minutes of digging in a hole. :)

What a beautiful,peaceful place to be. Getting rewarded too! :)

Really Nice find, I thought you were digging a hole to China but it was well worth it. Congrats on a Very Nice Find.

hey mate, we have done a fair bit of detecting over the years in comfort and now we are putting our Commander up for sale, it is a great vehicle, reliable and safe, we have avoided caravan parks like a plague, we had the freedom of so many places that are hard to reach with the peace and quiet that comes with it, found some good gold and fished some amazing places. if you want to see a video on it visit RU-vid and search for: 4x4 motor home SLRV Commander , you will notice the new paint job and we have made a few upgrades, if you are interested contact us and do an inspection, you will not be disappointed😁

A pin pointer... a must!

Great videos im glad i stumbled on to them

You can hear the sound of the pick change when you get to wash, magic!

Very nice piece Russell. Great dig too. You've really got that GPX dialled!! I went out again with my SDC2300 on friday here in the vic goldfields and found 1.5 grams of gold including my largest nugget so far at 0.5g! i was pretty excited. Its a great spot and not well known. A friend of my dads who now lives in WA, has been prospecting for over 30 years told me about it and a few other locations. All of which he`s pulled numerous 10oz plus nuggets in the 80's and 90's. If your ever planning a trip down to vic, id be more then happy to take you out there. Keep the vids coming mate. Really enjoying them.

Now that's something to put' A BIG SMILE on your face!! well done.

WA stands for Western Australia in this video, sorry for the confusion, cheers NM.

That's the first one I've ever seen where the prospector acknowledges striking the nugget with the pick. I know they are still above melt value, but how much does a pick strike knock down the value? Because of the sounds, it seems like there are other bits of gold both in the hole and the dirt you moved from the hole.

Careful.. If you pass out your head will go directly into the hole. Then you would confuse the Ostriches.

Hi Nuggetmagnet, Loving your documentaries mate. Im planning to do 6 months prospecting in WA next year. Never been before, would love to chat with you about setups, equipment, gen geology and areas. Cheers mate, Congrats again on the movies, looks likw a great way to spend winter. Garrt

Could this be real, never give up. I learned a real lesson here.

Excellent video, hoping to someday soon make it over seas to do some gold detecting with the family! So much different than urban detecting that we are used too! HH NRCR

Liked and subbed, you are living the life!

”are solely for the purpose of making better quality and more frequent videos.“ Oh please

What a ripper!, well deserved my man! 14 grams hey is gold still selling at 50 per gram? Happy hunting & good luck to you. Cheers, Chris.

impressed. Love this stuff ! great outdoors life that pays ! lol. im just getting into it myself. just purchased a GP Extreme in really good shape. When i find enough gold to pay for an upgrade ill send the Extreme to Woody !

What is the name of the detector you used to detect?

I agree with Jim below and wonder why you don't have a hand detector to hone in on the nugget before damaging it? Is there a reason for not using a hand detector? Good job though and thank you for your video.

When you pulled that rock out, i got excited for you, shame it was not a nugget lol,you will find that one like that one day i'm sure keep the faith.p.s always love the vids and your enthusiasm.

Lols at how you got sick of picking up sun bakers to pick up deep targets. You gotta remember that not everyone has a choice of what gold to find. Your very lucky to be doing what your doing.

Good stuff mate and thanks for sharing. Have you ever thought about using a "planter auger" they come in all different sizes and do all the digging for you. Just stick it in a good battery drill and off you go....it's accurate and fast and can go to 600 mm if need be....just thought I'd share that with you. Cheers. Ps, I'm really envious of you ....I've always wanted to do what you are doing. Good luck.

Love the video! I'm curious if you ever wet pan the soils you dig for the smaller specimens? I'm guessing it's not worth the time. Thank you for posting and I'll keep watching.

Mate ,your living the life.Thanks for sharing.

Awesome Vid as always legend. Thanks for sharing.

you came close to coming up in my garden

dam good find mate, could easily have been missed nice quite signal I never hear many like that, good work congratulations you deserve it would love to know your secret

Thought u were diggin a grave for a minute there

I sure hope it a biggin for all the work your putting in , mate! Don't get heat-stroke, drink water, water, water. 😉 congratulations, mate'! Nice!!

Great video

Hey everyone, Why does the metal detector keep making sounds even when it's not on the found? How are you meant to pinpoint where the gold is when it makes sounds all over the ground like that? I did notice that it had a deeper sound to it when it hit one spot in particular, is that how you are meant to tell you have found something?? Thank you =) LOVED this video by the way. Keep up the good work.

I have just watched a show from down under about bring life and water back to the surface by just planting grass. Wonder what would happen if grass were planted in every dig hole. Ya some will die but not all and eventually over time........

Congratulations on the color🤙🤑

Hey brother could you give me the reference of that detector that you use please

so Exciting! what a slug

The fact that after you find one piece and then don't check the remains is something I would like to portray to the amateur gold finder that just because you found one piece, check all your renderings.

Well worth the dig,right?

Thank you Sir !!

I thought you'd never get that sucker out! What's Rippa! Good job mate!

Gday NM just have to say your a legend! Loving watching your doco’s so much I’m coming down from Darwin to try my luck. Any chance you can point me in the right direction? Love your enthusiasm mate keep that machine singing 👍 Cheers Dan.

Hey man, how are y in the Outback of fire? Well done Sir Nugget Magnet.

good old ball scratchin country there mate lol

Next question mate, do you spend big money on special tyres for going bush or do you just take several spares?

hi nuggetfinder I'm just getting into swinging for gold but struggle, as in what to look for when driving and a good place to start have you made a video on this or could make one?

Oi sr The nuggetmagnet , tudo bem , vi seus vídeos varias vezes , acho fantástico essa procura por Gold ,aqui no brasil também tem muitos lugares para se procurar Gold ,estou fascinado com esta maquina , porem aqui no brasil e muito caro ,tem como voçe mandar uma usada ai pra mim .estou louco para garimpar , mas não tenho condição de comprar uma maquina dessas . Desde já te agradeço . E espero sua resposta .

That's a powerful metal detector.

Gday NuggetMagnet, Do you normally detect in the cooler months of the year or all year round? Cheers

Termites, flies and Gold!

That was excellent. Subbed

Very nice

Oi. Russo o aqui. Tá muito frio e aí como e que está

Wow nice piece do you sell your gold i am looking to buy a oz or two for jewelry

Awesome.Wish I had the dilemma of hitting a nugget like that with a pick

awesome!

I swear I saw a Chinaman come out of that hole! RIPPA!

what type detector you used sir? may i know?

hey thats a nice video do you sell this nuggets?

If you don't mind what part of Washington

Weird but it just so happens that the Canadian dollar and the Aussie dollar are both very similar compared to the U.S. dollar? weird but true!

Haw can I get the machine coz there are plenty of golds at my grandfathers land

hello friends, greetings from Colombia , very good your videos and search technique , you could tell me that detector used for this finding me it seems an excellent team thanks

Best Gold in Washington state is on the Oregon side of Mont Rainer

what a nice place, and a nugget is always good lol

$570 US

Why the head net what bugs are biting your head but not your legs?

How deep was the hole??

great find I'm in florida

Your techniques towards the end are a bit sus. why wouldn't you want to know where in the dig pile the gold was and why are your hands all of a sudden out of frame when trying to pinpoint where the nugget is

That one looks good enough to eat ...... looks like a ravioli! 😀

had any problems with snakes..?

Well-done

DO YOU LIVE IN KAL..GOOD STUFF

Saludos desde Ecuador cómo se llama el detector que está usando gracias

hi, what kind the device that you are using. than you

Are ye obligated to fill in the holes ? Would be a nice gesture .

What is geography you find gold nugget.

0la Russel você está sumido da internet o que aconteceu com o meu amigo

Bloody awesome!!!!!

Russel da saudade dessa. Época de 2015 seu detector. Fazia barulho Ágora ele não faz mais já. Está ficando com o modelo antigo mais ainda ele apita mais precisa usar o fones. De. Ouvidos

Boa noite para todos

Nice

What is the this masin name gold detactar, nice video and you also in India possible that mashen 🙏💐🌈🙏

People who live where gold occurs is so freaking lucky! I'd be at it day and night if I lived there. We have gold here in glacial deposits but it isn't even worth messing with. It got carried down from Canada. We literally have NOTHING in this area. Sandstone and limestone. Nothing else. =\

hi.dedektor name?

Tell me is there certain areas you can detect in wa how do you know where you can and can't go

Wow!!!

What name metal detecktor??

What machine are u using please

well damn, misleading title. here i thought there was going to be gold here in WA, as in the state of which is stands for. but apparently someone misidentified western australia as WA instead of WAUS

It wore me out watching you dig to China, nice reward.

well worth the digg
