$1,000,000 Gold Deposit Found Over The Weekend

If you want to start a gold mine but don't have permits or the equipment to drill and test the ground for commercially mineable gold, this is how to get the results you need.
In this video I show exactly how I prove gold bearing ground at no cost.
Where to look, what to look for and the whole process from start to finish.
I'm joined by Gareth AKA MotoMining a true tenacious prospector who gets to business, his help is invaluable on this mission, Thank You Gareth.

Thanks Jeff, 😃after this last run I’m thinking some Vmatt would be great, I might have lost some fines on this go. I really appreciate you checking out my video, it’s super cool to me as I re-learned to pan around 10 years ago from one of your videos😊🍻🏔⛏

[@ANDYTHRAXX]

Yes we finally got to confirming the hunch, and I love the mew camera footage man, Thankyou again.

[@geneoleary6809]

The reason there were huge depressions in the test holes is because of all the gold they took out. They didn't show us all the gold because it would start a stampede on thier chain and no miner ever wants that to happen on thier claim...

[@MountaineerMatt]

This was really cool Andy. I got exhausted just from watching you put in all that hard work. Love it! ⛏

That was a huge learning experience, finding old channel, and that kind of pay at only 2 to 4 feet down, hundreds of feet from the current river! It completely changes the perspective on where and what to look for! Great job Andy, especially the reclamation, it's like we were never there!
