always love seeing them Bighorn sheep ..... some good mineralization in that Lens..... gotta ask if you prefer the 6000 over the 5000 and what is the big difference between the two in your opinion .... coarse Gold is the best as it means the vein is close by ....you guys are good at finding them....Limonite after pyrite is a great sign my brother ...that is a good looking specimen .... have you tried the scoops with the little riffles in them ....we love them as you can just blow the dirt out and leave the heavies behind .... great advice my brother .... another great vid and we samiched that like button real hard like ..... keep'em coming and hope to see you out in the Gold fields.
Rains are coming through again now! Time to get back out there for some panning! 🤠🤙🏼 Picked up a Gold Bug 2 thanks to advice from @AskJeffWilliams and @IBrakeForBedrock too! Considering that blue Goldmonster 1000 (do I have that right?). Looks like a great duo to have while out prospecting for gold! Definitely appreciate all the great knowledge and geology advice you all bring to the table! Thanks for sharing your experience and knowledge with us newbies too ✌🏼!
The 6000 with the 11 inch coil is an amazing machine. For the weight savings alone, I`m thinking about getting one. Simple, clean sensitive system. I only own the 5k but boulderdash has the 6K
I feel your pain, Adam. I drove 2.5 hours to a claim that I've never been to before, drove a rough, rough trail (ended up damaging my car) hiked for hours at a time and found nothing. Absolute junk. Sadly, this is my typical result when going out. It's supposed to be fun, great exercise and relaxing...which it is, but finding gold is the ultimate goal and the highlight of any trip out. Probably won't pay for the gas but it puts a smile on my face.
@@IBRAKEFORBEDROCK totally discouraging but you never know when your lucky day will arise and you find the biggest nugget of your life. That's what keeps us going. Stay safe and wander on!
I'll be there soon enough. See ya out in the fields. You won't recognize me but I'll recognize you and I'll say hello. Don't worry about the dogs they don't bite. Where I go they go with me. Thanks for taking us along with you. That mine looked promising. You should sample some and crush it up and take a look at what's inside 😊
Another great video Adam!! I have been at this destination mining now for three years and have yet to find anything with my detector. A ton of small bbs and pieces of lead but no gold. One of these days I will swing it over a true gold target and everyone in Arizona will probably know I found one. But on a different note, I am still confused on where to sample to run my drywasher. I watch your videos and you guys are almost always digging in nice size washes. I get it your probably way away from any club claims and the washes you are working haven't been hit as hard as the ones I have been working. I have heard so many different ideas on where I should be working. From the middle of the washes on bedrock, to sides of the washes and even on the sides of the hills above the washes. Would love to know where my efforts would best award me in my testing. Been mostly working the RR claims near Morristown and up near Keystone. I figure with that many claims there has to be a few spots that haven't been hit yet. Thanks for any help. If you ever need someone to go out testing with I would love to help. Thanks Red
Theres a RR claim called Gypsy Moth out there. It may be a good one to drywash, and metal detect the bedrock while drywashing. Lots of gold was found in the past there, and theres probably more replenished by now. I hardly see anyone out there
@@IBRAKEFORBEDROCK I have been out there testing once or twice but didn't find much. Should I be testing the washes, sides of washes, or way up and away from the washes. My tests so far have been in the washes themselves. Found a flake or two but nothing to get excited about. I am still not dialed in on where to test in the desert. Thanks for all your help!! Any chance that I could meet you there sometime to spend and hour or two going over the landscape and what I should be looking for. Thanks Red
I understand what your saying about small consetrated patches but We have a friend that found a water worn nugget at the top of a dry desert hill,possibly it was all under water at one time from an ancient wash.Whats next find a nugget up in a tree😮😂
When you got people with $5,000 metal detectors, makes it harder for others that don't fine anything but trash SUCKS.... So I stick to drywashing and vacuum bedrock.
Cool mine and pyrite cube for sure 2 is better than none have you ever been to the mines south west of quartzite on the southeast side of copper bottom pass? Saw them on google earth looked like an interesting area I can give you some basic directions if you want to look at them great video thanks for sharing adam see you on the next one👍🏼👊🏼
