Rigby is looking quite chipper, Rex is keeping him on his toes 🙂👍

You went from prospecting to mining ⛏

Probably stating the obvious, but why not just throw all of the clay ridden pay dirt and gravels into a cement mixer and leave it running with a hose squirting in there to clean everything up first? Great video as always Jason, keep up the good work mate.

The wife and I enjoy watching you on your adventures. Keeping life really you are. I always say, ‘There’s joy in the journey.’ May you and your pups have joy for many years to come.

You need Big Rig and Rex to dig you a Jeff Williams style drift mine in that bench! That ground is like Midwest Caliche.

63 year old disabled vet here Jason, I've learned a lot from your video's, I have a need, a need for gold. Being disabled I have a lot of free time, just don't know where to look, I live in menomonie Wi. After sluicing for a few months I learned I was putting the expanded steel in backwards, so I was losing gold. I look to you Jason for guideness and direction. Keep up the good work, Thank You.

This fall 5 hunters will come up missing in the woods by your gold mine. In the spring you will find them frozen in the mine 😂

Now you’re getting to it Jason! I’m excited to see what you got downistunder 🤓 Yahoo baby I see gold and you’re Fever Giggling..🤪 Gold Baby 😂 Nice job pal Peace Prospector Tripp

Who knew. YOU. HARD WORK PAYS OFF.

I use a cement mixer to pre-wash my material. Add a little detergent, run it for a minute or two, then slowly pour off the mud. Add more water and repeat. It also works all the heavies to the back of the drum, so you don't lose them. Next I classify the material to get rid of the larger rocks. This makes sluicing a lot easier and faster. If you're in the masonry business, I know you got an extra mixer laying around somewhere. Cheers!

Awesome. I think compared to the creek edge, there is more material and much safer. I'm so glad the macro lens is still working for you! I still use mine all the time to look at possible rocks for crushing I find. Now if you could just use your truck with that big water tank you had started for your special permission and get a recirculation system going. Use the 60 feet of hose to fill it up (even use the original hole for the discharge tub)... Lots of potential here. Just simply awesome.

Very nice spot Jason Rigby and Rex 👍🏽👊🏽✨🤙🏽 Mahalo for sharing guy's stay blessed much aloha to you and your ohana great video braddah

With all that clay... you might think about a Trommel :)

Here a bolder there a bolder everywhere a bolder bolder 😁👍👍👍

Try to purchase an old pair of ice tongs to attempt the moving of some of those pumpkin size rocks and good luck 😮

Bring your pail with your homemade declassifyer Joshlin and water bringing home concentrates would have a very big smile !

Another good video that's amazing the gold that you got

Ok Jason, time for some rails and a couple small ore carts... let gravity take the loaded carts down the hill to the crick, and a cable/pulley to bring the empties back up to the pay pit! YOU CAN DO IT, WE'RE ROOTIN' FOR YA 👍👍👍

There’s nothing better then looking at the work truck and saying “not today my friend…not today..” 👊🏻🤠

Nice bit o gold there gonna have to give Rigby and Rex some good scratches for all the heavy lifting😂😂

I Told you, Jason, you keep on doing things like this, and you're gonna end up with Parker Schnabel in there with a Warsh Plant🥴🤔🧐😆🦾🇺🇸🪠🍺😎🍺🍺🍺‼️

After thinking on it a while. If I was you, I’d dig an access hole and once your down to the layer that you want, and have 3ft by 3ft, then you could take a small pick axe and undermine a circle around you. A buddy showed me a good way to dig out hole like that, loosen up the soils with a. Few good hits, then use a rigid vacuum about 10-15 gallon vacuum. (Take the interior filter off) and it sucks that loose soils up with no problem. That way you don’t have to dig the top soils off the areas you under mine. The soils will support for a while, like a bench on a river side. I wonder if that would work.

Jason I received my new table top dream mat I finely received my My new pump a few weeks ago I went to Ohio for the Gold Rush and I had a wonderful time camping and I have 2bukets of classafiere God bless you and your family Amen

That was very interesting how you located an old riverbed. Great video!!

Hence the saying "diggin' for gold"! Awesome stuff my man! AFNB...🍺🍻🍺🇺🇸

Two funny things I thought of during this video. 1 If someone walked within sight of you while you were digging, they would have to think you were up to no good. 2 Anyone thinking about dating your daughters would think "he's already got the hole dug" lol

One heck of a workout. You're gonna be there a while. It's there hiding under the black sand. That is awesome, the hard work pays off, good going, flourishing.

I appreciate your positive demeanor and determination - sorry your mine boss and his apprentice works you so hard!

Wow very interesting, and a exciting find Jason!

Great new place with nice chunky gold that hasn't been traveling to much... ⛏️⛏️🍀👍

Love seeing you and the boys having fun. Stay safe and keep the videos coming

Good thing you got that new shovel there Jason

I wonder if you have tried a post hole digger. Mine has a clam shell design. I know it won't go through bolders but might make short work of the cobbles. It would help when you already know where the bedrock is. Could even use a battery powered shop vac for when you hit bedrock. Love your channel. Never stop.

Who needs heavy equipment when you have a Wizzard?? Excellent location, Jason. Go get it all!

So nice to see the chang from rivers going to dry land-

Awesome sharing Jason, I definitely be happy with that find. Glad to see you stepping outside of your comfort zone. The gold buddies keeping you company was enjoyable to see. Have good week , thanks for bringing us along 😅

Up on the Bench - Way to dig out of the box. Great Jas-splain of why you picked the spot to start. Seeing the truck in the background made sense for the @ home processing.

This episode was so good, I had to watch it twice!!!

Looks like a good spot to me. Deeper seemed better looking, lots of gravel and cobbles. More work but better GOLD.

Coming from Canada : When you see a piece in the sluice , “when there’s one there”s some” 😂

Let’s hope the shovel can take it 😂. 🐎✌️

This location with the previous miles (mile plural) high glacier atop the land and scratching up the slope of the mountain range, all this would have originally been pushed underwater. With the retreat and melting of the glaciers, such glacier erratics or scraped off boulders, rocks, cobbles, would have come down and be laid on this "bench." Over time with the retreat of the massive weight of the glaciers, and the rise of Lake Superior, all this would have had the glacial lake lapping up against the mountain slope (as well as washing out Lake Superior evaporative gold, and Abitibi gold up onto the shoreline, and such washdown and erosion of the mountain range weathering out alluvial gold. This entire "bench" area down to the moving and erosive river/creek down below settled into its erosion channel, while the land continually rose up, the lake retreating, and such bottom Cambrian bedrock continued to push upwards with all of the sands and shinies, clays, sands, and silts, were laid down, eventually starting to lay down organic grassland and eventually forested "O" layer organics - for a sizeable depth of material (!). Yup !, you have some massive diggable shinies there ... all the way down to the Cambrian basalt and granite bedrock. How deep in that area - one only needs to go over to the river/creek and find the Cambrian bedrock there - note the elevation, then go back to the dig hole - note the elevation, and all Cambrian bedrock elevation being equal (no upward tilt southward), you have the entire feet depth of available searching that entire "bench." Definitely going to need that garden hand shovel, garden rake, mason trowel and pointer trowel. I suspect that you could literally have 20+ feet (or more) to get to bedrock. That is a lotta cubic acres of mining. Once down to the bedrock, then instead of throwing the overburden, one would then find the shiny layers, and tunnel across the bedrock and that height of shiniest in all directions - and you would be working most-excellent paydirt at the bottom.

awesome looking secret spot nice shinny. lucky you have backup now so no one can sneak up on you & get that shinny Nice pond

You got a really nice spread. That garage is a nice place!

Nice! Keep at it in that spot, you might find some pickers too

Love your channel and your humor.

BTW, I Love your "Backhoe"😆🤪👌

Testing for the new hot spot, I like it. Your dog mining team is really on the hunt. Roots are a pain in the gluts.🤔🤔😲😲Nice looking material in your test spot. Thanks for taking us along on your adventure.😎😎⛏⛏🔥🔥

In the end, the Starks are always right… Winter is coming!

Thanks for Makin' it that i can almost feeling it too!!!!!!!!!!!!!! thanks for the zoommmmmm video.......😎😎

promising site mate the old timers trenched for a reason more efficient than a big pit ,hard labour will keep you fit though and thirsty hehe great vid jason pat the pups for me aye cheers

You should build a 12 vdc washer Trommel and set your high banker underneath it to help with clay on the rock.

Very interesting location! I like the way you make home made gagets to fit your equipment. Very intuitive! Thankyou again for an awesome video! Thanks to rigby and rex for finding the gold!!! 😊

Some of the best alluvials that could be found - would be working on the northern side of the mountain range where previous commercial gold mines were worked/working. The ancient erosion and wash out of those shinies would be in a direct line down the mountain slope, pointing northward and outward to Lake Superior ... and those mentions of those northern counties with gold mentions and creeks.

Nice history lesson

That’s one heck of a boat load of work for a few specks of gold and in that heat and humidity •••••that’s killer crazy. My hat is off to you 😮

Thanks for sharing your knowledge with me kind sir🆗👍💰🆒

Rex is getting big!

Great spot and nice haul! 👏

Looked like a lot of work, but some really nice looking gold to show for it!!

Man i wish these last two videos of yours wouldn't freeze up on me.

Nice mate I’ve got one of them little high bankers great idea that little screen on top I’m going to put one on mine happy prospecting Jason 👍😎🇦🇺

Nice!! Great video Jason. Thanks for sharing brother🍻🍻

In another life you were a geologist with a whip and cool hat that drinks beer and loves dogs 😊

Wow nice find! Can't wait to see what lays on the bottom of that channel if you ever get that far.

JJ, You need a small steam shovel to get down to the bed rock...

Awww your pond is so clean

Looks like you have a lot of work ahead of you, and a decent pay day! Git that pay!!

Holy man where did the summer go. Your pond is so blue it looks like the Caribbean. Awesome. Wish I could have made it to one of your outings this summer. Great looking gold. Power on. Hopefully it’s a late winter. 👍🏼

Great job getting that Au fam. Always a blast. Keep at it. Gold Squad Out 🤠

Don't tell Rigby but I think you're the gold sniffing hound 🐺! Impressive Jason, that was an educated discovery. Test holes....buy it or lease it and have fun.....post it! How deep will it go and how many layers of pay? You can do so many different types of videos from there....recirculating pond lol. I'm very happy for you! Ps I was all excited and forgot.....COBBLES!!

Great new spot 👍🏼 good find and another great video 🍻✌🏼

Enjoyed the video I could have done that 20 years ago lol now at 72 my mind says I can my body says I can’t but I do have permission to prospect a new creek next Thursday near Georgia border in the southern gold belt nice gold enjoy seeing the puppies ⚒️🇺🇸🕳️⛏️

Nice FGW. Finding that gold is exciting

Heck yeah that's how you do some prospecting I wish we were allowed to dig in the upper benches here in Ohio we're restricted in the water only unless you have private land or know somebody so pretty cool to watch ⛏️💪🇺🇲

Great results Jason, was that a pond or the Hoover Dam 😂, great to see Rigby in training the apprentice mine boss, geee it’s like there’s too many chiefs and not enough Indians 👍😂🍻🍺🍺

Lol if someone come along I bet they would think you're digging a grave 😂

Good day, prospecting Jason the Mason

That was a good day.

You are lucky. In our country, mining for minerals is only permitted in flowing water ⚒👍🤠🍻

Beware of Frog! Too funny!

And yet another great show. Keep up the great work. I started Cardiac Rehab last week so I will be good to go next spring...

Again, a nice video. Love your trees glad you Found gold like always. Keep up the good work. Oh, bye the way love your pawn.

Congrats on super secret location X !

lol Beautiful green water turns nasty brown , no swimming today. lol

Time to file a metallic mining permit Jason that way no one can pilfer you spot and then you can get a some equipment out there and really see what’s down deep you may have found the mother load…. Or at least keep out of trouble for digging big holes looking forward to more from this area thanks for sharing see you on the next one👍🏼👊🏼

Definitely revisit that place. Heck even next year early get at it.

Hello Jason, sorry i fell off the radar a bit, had computer issues ! So great to see you working that old river bed, exciting ! I sense more pickers even nuggies coming you way ! Who needs a gym, just go looking for gold, it,ll test your metal ! I see you have a new member to your team with Rex.... lovely looking dog, I am sure Big Rig is telling him what he needs to know to become a hard working miner too !

Your stuff is so real. Much more down to earth, (so to speak) then some of the other channels. Love where your going these days.

Just imagine, a dry washer after the material has dried. Just a thought. Great fun, thank you for sharing the fun times

So cool! That’s some nice looking gold! Be careful though, the mafia might notice your hole digging talent’s! 😂🍻

Time to go back!!! Get’em!

GREAT JOB PROSPECTING, JASON! hard digging buy ots paying off. I'm looking forward to seeing what comes out of that prospect!! FGWTEAM 👍⛏️

If you have a bunch of tailings in your pond you should do a video on seeing if you have put gold there! 😂😂

6ft pry bar, come along ,cables, block & tackle set up to move them bigger rocks. I heard Two Toes say big rocks big gold it might be worthwhile. Great job Jason you sure deserve that shiny & a cold one!

And a folding hand saw for the roots!

Tuff work pays off dude......Cheers from an Aussie..!!

Mining hasn't changed a bit over many years

Very Nice Jason ! It is kinda' funny..... The harder You work, The luckier You get. The only thing I would say is move your high banker to a shady spot............ for the work at home.
