4 tricks for finding gold on bedrock.

[@VoGusProspecting]

I love finding shales like that. You're almost certain to find gold in it!

[@Danhurd]

Yup! Shale is one of my favourite things to pan - I was working it all day today. Hard on the hands though (Mike spilled a lot of blood today because of that shale).

[@jasonspeers1455]

Great video as always. I've learned a lot from your videos and have put everything I've learned to use.

[@mrhot6shot]

A great place. Gold panning, train watching and maybe a little fishing.

[@cbearslife4950]

When you’re deep into your work and have the wherewithal to pause, look up, and enjoy the beauty in which surrounds you. (About 2/3 the way through the video). Good stuff, Dan.

[@Danhurd]

Thanks!

[@cbearslife4950]

Dan Hurd definitely! It’s clear you care just as much for the environment you’re working in (or playing in depending on how you look at it), as for the work you’re doing! It’s a gorgeous area. Bet that waters cold too.

[@keithhaycraft3765]

Thanks for those tips. They & your sense of humour (so like mine) are among the main reasons I enjoy your videos. Good fun to watch.

[@Danhurd]

Thanks!

[@benbarnes3974]

It seems such a good place ! Nice of you to show your buddies spots to dig, I feel like a day out with you would be like a huge leap forward in terms of experience 😂

[@scrapthatwithmatt9520]

Ben Barnes You probably right about that one...

[@cathyolson5530]

That river is beautiful!! What a Great area to find gold!!..love your show, just watching your video is like going on a mini vacation for me..thank you!!

[@GreenMountainGoldTrap]

Been waiting for this BUT! there must be more!! In fact, I know there is because you made mention, you got some nice gold on your three day trip. That is a beautiful area for sure. Thanks for sharing.

[@cassyfofana7805]

Hello Dan Pete and Mike the water looks cold by looking at ur hands . Very nice of u to bring ur friends to ur claim . Bless u guys n ur Family's .... 😇

[@Freespiritangel61]

Beautiful scenery with no snow you are so lucky. It is melting here but seems to be taking forever I can't wait to go panning. Your whistling the farmer in the dell so cool!

[@raymoretz2693]

I like these videos where you show where and why you dig where you dig.

[@nikolaykirilov8101]

I've said it before and I'm saying it now: this place is beautiful, I love it !!!

[@joeljeffery8704]

Love the Thomson River! It hiding beautiful gold. You are very fortunate to be able to get out there with your friends for a few days and pan for gold. Good luck and I hope to see the results in a couple of days. Thanks Dan.

[@Danhurd]

It's a beautiful river, that's for sure.

[@rodkirt9273]

I enjoyed the video and tips on finding gold.What a clean looking river to have some fun at.

[@freebird1961]

I'm learning a lot from your videos. I've recently retired and I'm very interested in supplementing my income, which right now is only my Social security retirement. You're doing a great job with your work. KEEP IT UP!

[@bat2564]

Thanks for this tutorial, was finding alot of difficulty finding gold on my minecraft world.

[@user-if1bn3qj1m]

I- wow

[@gloriadickerman6074]

Such a beautiful place! I'm glad I found your videos! Always interesting, and I learn something from every one! I have one question. How do you know where you can pan for gold without jumping someone's claim?

[@lisacates4185]

Ya!

[@lisacates4185]

Can you just walk down on a river and pan for gold?

[@johnsavage8778]

A beautiful day to be out to play thanks for sharing with us

[@Danhurd]

Always a good day to be out

[@kenaigoldllc8622]

Thanks for sharing your adventures on the Thompson River. Looks like a great spot

[@Danhurd]

Thanks!

[@waynebussey5521]

Hello Dan, Yet another wonderful day on your side of the rockies. Thompson looks good so far this year...and yet another fine video proving that not always following the golden rule about inside corners can still yield some gold...And another good tip for others about the open avaliability to try one's hand on the Thompson with reguards to open panning...can't wait for your next video...So until your next video, you and yours have a wonderful day...Bye 👍

[@Danhurd]

Thanks!

[@David-yh5po]

Thanks for sharing this video.

[@Danhurd]

Thanks for watching

[@troysgarage]

I've been watching "prospecting" videos for a long time, but have yet to get out and try my hand at it. Even if I found nothing it would be awesome to get out and see scenery like this!

[@Danhurd]

It's a great hobby!

[@cnycp25]

Love the river and the gold ! Have you ever thought about sanfrancisco California there are still people panning for gold

[@bjthecrow]

Wonderful video bud

[@rickreimer1050]

Thanks again for the lesson Dan. Beautiful there.

[@avdkmusic]

[@benatchison6600]

Thanks for showing that there are places FREEE to Pan ! Tks Dude!

[@Danhurd]

You're welcome!

[@hooahextreme]

If I ever come through Canada again I need to check out the Thompson. It looks beautiful.

[@Danhurd]

It really is

[@frederickbierweiler8020]

I find way less gold and enjoy it almost as much as you love your videos

[@jacobendriss6]

Good job man great vid!

[@Danhurd]

Thanks!

[@rory251]

I live right by that spot! Sweet!

[@connieeveritt5704]

Awesome view Dan

[@Danhurd]

It sure is!

[@highenergyog]

Love the views of the Tompson river , I must say that you whistled - The farmer and the Dell quite well. Lol.

[@Danhurd]

I didn't really, but thanks

[@CplSkiUSMC]

The Thompson is quite beautiful but so much bigger than what I'm used to prospecting. It's bigger than the Yellowstone and what I prospect is a fraction of the size of the Yellowstone. Big water, big gold I guess.

[@kd5ctt]

Great advice as always Dan. I love all of the trains.

[@Danhurd]

Thanks! I love them too.

[@larrykasiah8852]

Nice scenery good to know not to many claims good place to go panning. Thanks and prospect on.

[@easternwoods4378]

Would a small pump and hose help to wash out the bottom of the cracks? Many year ago ( before you were born ) I was working in northern Ontario and saw a backpack with a hand pump that fire crews used. I think it held about 10 gallons. Use it to wash out the cracks

[@insolentstickleback3266]

Yes! A beautiful day on the river Thanks!

[@georgedobrovsky3800]

Hello there,I HAVE NOT SEEN THAT MUCH WATER IN A GOLD BEARING RIVER since 2016 ,but dry river beds make good gold accessible in Downunder. Regarding the classifier ,I have been using taller version in my bucket last 30 odd years great for breaking clay, using only 1/3 of water, no splashing around.Your contraption is the first I ever seen apart from my own,but I would use it in a bucket.There would be market for them,but material (pressed metal 1.2 mm with hex. mesh, like honeycomb 7 mm) is hard to find.Mine was on the back of Amish made A/c units from USA.I got them in 1980. Wishing You and others up North Good Luck in finding that yellow stuff, regards George

[@Danhurd]

Thanks!

Hi Dan... Are dredges allowed on the Thompson River? Great liking place to spend the day. How deep is the Thompson River? Thanks for sharing this information with us. Love your videos and I’ve learned a lot from them...! Have a great day and be blessed.

[@Danhurd]

No dredges in BC. Very deep at some place - guessing 20-30 feet.
