Dredging for Gold is ILLEGAL in Australia | But I still Do It

Fast facts make people comment who never comment. Comments drive the algorithm. My plan is working splendid! Who's here to comment about the fact 😅

[@Trashbd]

If it is interaction you want, put up faulty facts so people gets triggered to make comments...

[@susanturcotte3176]

Trashbd, excellent point! That gets everyone engaged trying to correct Chris!! 😮🫣🙄😂😂

[@trevdyer173]

Facts are too fast to read

[@itisastrikeindicator.796]

Just stay funny Chris you and Buckshot are hilarious you make me laugh. That's why I enjoy watching your videos that and the gold.

Hi

[@Gentleman-Prospector]

Oooowee Chris! That is one AUsome creek right there. You worked that yabbie pump like a beast my friend. As always great video, very descriptive and informative. Thanks for all you do for the community and thanks for sharing.👍😎🎩⚒️G.P.

[@markfryer9880]

Hey G.P. keeping warm?😊

Thanks 👍

Cant get enough of watching your videos! Just love the gathering! Thanks Chris! And we missed him on this one,but a thumbs up for the local superhero "captain sweatpants "lol

Great to see the pancake pan in action. Really enjoying the added graphics, always informative and entertaining 🎉

[@allenjackson8736]

I have learned many things with your channel so thank you very much for producing these films. Please keep going, love the channel.

[@VoGusProspecting]

Thanks, will do!

[@ChrisMarshall-l6f]

I love all the factoid bubbles you're putting up in this video. Keep it up!!

i love the that fact pops up its good way of get info across to the viewers good job Chris

[@vicferrari9380]

Love the pop ups. Their just a little to fast for me😮😅

[@Druid99]

Nice little pan. There's beauty in simplicity. Liked the POV perspective. Blessings to you, and continuing success.

[@HummelJaeger]

I've been playing around with the Old Mouldy pancake gold pan at home using stream gravels and sand I brought back home from previous fossicking trips. I tested its performance against my small pan using the same dirt and various screen classifications. The pancake pan was significantly and consistently faster and better at retaining the heavies, including gemstones. The small size is useful since it can be operated using one hand while continuously feeding dirt with the other hand. It will be a welcome addition to my backpack.

[@steven_ewen]

Gotta love finding a puglet in your pan. Thanks for sharing Chris 👍

[@BradKerr-h8l]

I love your channel I've been watching you guys for while now . Keep up the good work and be safe on the bikes. Cheers Brad from Burleigh Heads .. Oh and congratulations on Champagne 🚍

[@VoGusProspecting]

Awesome, thank you!

[@scousewillo62]

Some fantastic gold and that pancake gold pan works so well. Love being able to support you as I get so much enjoyment from your channels. I live in the UK and visit North Wales quite often, will have to get some prospecting equipment as it produces some great gold.

[@Heapsgoodprospecting]

the pan would be good for lil back water creeks with not a lot of water too id imagine...definitely changed my mind on it with this video Chris!

[@joshuajackson6442]

Yes!! Dreams hopefully influenced

[@stephenpublicover8818]

Hey Chris, the gold you are finding,is a little bigger than the flour gold in your region! love the pop-up info on gold! Great video! hello from Fletchers Lake, Nova Scotia, Canada.😀👌👍👍👍✌

Thanks! Will do!

[@gabivalla6279]

Thanks Chris, I'll stay with relaxed rather than hyperactive, although I think it shows with the stripped-back equipment and methods used, your efficiency is nonetheless visually dizzying! The added bonus to the Vogus of the bucket seat in the middle of the creek, much harder for creepy crawlies to creep up and crawl upon thee unless they can walk upon flowing water. Avagoodweekend!

Hi Chris. I stopped keeping up to date with you when the Pandemic took hold of my attention. I love your work. It's great to listen and learn from a true blue. I haven't been home in almost a decade. It occured to me that one day a person who learned from you might find an almighty nugget. Wouldn't that be awesome. Anyway, love ya brother. Take care always.

[@craigparry5648]

Great video, excellent little pan your designed and made, does the job very efficiently by the looks.

[@VoGusProspecting]

Absolutely

[@TalRohan]

excellent circle pan ...I like that you kept the price in line with other pans ...high five on that one ....the platter griddle riddle circle pan rocks, Something no one has touched on with Yabbie pumps is that, if you do happen to drop any gravel out of it, you can just slurp it back up again and have another go so no matter what you're never actually going to lose it. Several somebody's are going to have a really nice little bag of dirt. I like your product style.

[@tommynoel9929]

Thanks Chris!

[@thewhalsons7624]

Thats a very cool little pan! Thanks Chris!

[@nickitoff9629]

Nice Going ChriS!!! Cheers Buddy! JJ

[@BoJohansen]

Nice work and gold ❤🇩🇰👍

[@susanturcotte3176]

Chris, I really appreciate how you put up the facts about gold and mining. All those who are either new to prospecting or your channel will learn a lot more about gold to guide them forward. Thank you my friend! I also learned something new, when you wrote that the deepest mine is in Africa. 😳 (Note to self: tuck that fact inside your brain). Very interesting! 😁 Although you are going to wait to weigh the gold and reveal the amount later, I'm already on the edge of my seat! 🧐 Especially the larger coarse piece, as it is not seen in that size in your creeks. Beautiful piece! Until weigh in day, I send you blessings from Alabama ❤️

[@silvercottage1silvercottag391]

Your little tidbits of information that pop up are greatly appreciated….ya just need to leave them up a little longer so I can finish reading them lol

I've learned alot since I've started watching you. Only waiting for the chance to get out to a river and start finding gold. I just got to find a good location where I'm located in Canada. Either way enjoy all your videos Chris. Keep it up!

[@MickH60]

Gday Chris. For the algae rhythm....

[@whosaidthat5236]

Those yavi/yabbi pumps … however you spell it, I bought some water cannons for the kid when in the pool. They are the same design, you would just need to cut the plastic screen and the pool noddle off, it only cost $12.50 in Canadian Passos. And your new pan looks a lot like some camping dinner plates.

[@Gajafar]

Cool vid. You do better with type of yabbie pump which is connected to a bucket with a hose like the gold n sand. Saves you lifting after every pump. Had one for over 10 years now. Cheers

[@ChrisMarshall-l6f]

I really need to see you test that pancake pan in a large basin so we can see how much or how little gold is lost. Might help sales to see how good it works.

very good video. it reminds me of the first ones you uploaded to the channel.

I like the thumbnails with information but some of us aren't speed readers and I have to pause the video to read it all. Keep up the good work

You and Gadzee run a bag of Bunnings play sand to see if anything is in there. Those seem to be pretty popular right now.

[@andypandyAU.6669]

I love a juicy crevice, good job on the pan. It probably works a hell of a lot better than the bin lid! ❤it 😂😊

[@johnnyboyce4914]

Chris, have you ever thought of putting a suction cup over the end of the yabby pump? so that it covers a greater area and would help with suction on un even surfaces. Im not saying its actually going to stick to the bedrock but should help with greater suction

[@xxxx85]

Hahah like everyone else I was here to post feedback on the fast facts, very devious plan indeed Gus ;)

[@markpashia7067]

I was just thinking that if you have quartz piling up below a drop off, there must be some "hidden" weight to it and then you said it was worth crushing. Only makes sense.

[@jimmurphy4703]

Why don’t you classify as you drop it into the bucket ? Surly it would be better for panning ?

Look, you're wrong. It's that simple. Trust has nothing to do with it. So long as you don't overload it with dirt you won't lose anything. It's impossible because you're not tipping the pan at all.
