"Find GOLD Faster: Google Earth Prospecting Tips & Tricks"

[@Askjeffwilliams]

After weeks of searching, our hunt was over as we finally found the Lost Gold Mine and Mill that we found on Google Earth, and we cannot believe how rich the Gold Ore is that was left behind. Now we can see why no one has been out to this one in a long time. If you have any stories of lost Gold mines that you found we would love to hear them so throw it down in the comments section and if you want to see how me and my wife dig out Gold from our Drift mine, check out this video kzbin.info/www/bejne/kJvKeKaDftGomdk and smash that like button real hard.

[@GimmeOo-mox]

Jeff, I need to get out there so I can find gold. I'm so tired of being a poor lol. Canada's economy is in the drunk tank for various reasons but either way, I hope to get there. I could always shovel poo in San Francisco for 80k a year I guess but that would be a stinky job. 🤷‍♂️

[@dmorgan5010]

I see you decided to change it up a little..that happens when you start in noninteresting. Areas I will give you some advice some people who might need your help and assistance is very interested in your journey. To acquire knowledge. Everyone is sick and dieing no one wants to know that Jeff Williams is sick and could die I understand what has happened. I had my opindix taken out but no person wants to here that.

It's the one thing you always say, Study the USGS maps, then follow the geology. And once again, the geology was right. Great video Jeff. And yeah, it sucks that there's idiots who are able to drive with such limited brain capacity. Let's hope Karma enjoys the visit. I'm pretty sure that the old timers weren't too happy about it.

I knew you be on it Jeff you the man thank you xoxo say hi to slim yeah your going to get wet !!!! let's go Jeff

Jeff, if ALL teachers had even an ounce of your enthusiasm, the world would be a better place and those folks only using 2 brain cells, would be smarter! Thank you again for what has become my Sunday Geology Lesson! 😊

I feel like you take your viewers to school, and that's fine by me. Respect Jeff too, for not revealing where these sites are, and respecting what little remains, of any artifacts. In short, you're a bloody legend mate🤠

Now you can look at this site on GE with a different focus, after having boots on the ground. The extent of the seams might be more apparent from the air. The red is obvious on the GE image you showed at the start. An interesting, educational, entertaining well edited video. Thanks.

[@legacyXplore]

It’s said over and over but your the real deal man. Your a true geology, prospecting, and mining savant there is no question. I’m sure I’m leaving out other disciplines that go with those but you get the point.

Jeff sparked my interest in rocks. I loved playing with rocks as a kid , almost 40 years old now and i get excited looking at rocks all over again.

me too

[@aleksionas]

Well, get a rock, few clamps, diamond blade, few drum wheels, angle grinder, polishing pads and get work :D Wet polishing is always better, just a hint. Try to make something simple like an ashtray, just that experience will teach you a ton about the stones.

[@rudolfyakich6653]

Excellent field exploration video. I think back to the old works near my Montana home . I wish I could have had the benefit of your tutalege in my younger years. The area that I lived in had numerous digs. There was a huge mill shut down during WW2.

For noobs out there, like me, Jeff usus a word that YT CC doesn't pick up or doesn't pick up correctly. See examples at 5:09 and 14:55 and 15:55 where Jeff actually defines what it means. The word is Brecciated or Breccia. Do a google and you'll learn what Jeff is saying and what that means. Happy prospecting!

[@Askjeffwilliams]

thanks

[@gregorybrown7818]

Jeff, can’t thank you enough. Your enthusiasm, knowledge and energy are infectious. I started panning and sluicing this year in Colorado because of your videos. Thanks for my amazing Season 1! Looking forward to learning so much more from you.

[@Askjeffwilliams]

always our pleasure Greg..... keep at it and let us know what you find

[@cr8ivedestruction]

Pyrite minerals in organic-rich shale have lithium, so not all pyrite is worthless.

[@yourock3794]

It's crazy that you can see these flat areas with a bit of concrete and red rocks and visualize this entire mining operation. Really cool to see this history, even if you don't find a speck of gold in it.

[@greedygringoprospecting6941]

was out by randsburg ca just junk. with the gm1000. was nice and sunny ,warm. beat on a piece of float with pyrite in it (all rusty) nothing. the way it is. have a good day

Hey Jeff, watching this episode brought me a lot of hope especially with Sylvester Stallone what he said I was going through a rough time at the time, but when I was listening to the motivation of him saying that I should’ve thought of what I was going through.. and then I’ll begin to do better.. I love all the indicators you’re showing me and everything I’m learning a lot. Thank you very much just had to tell you you help me with that….😊😊😊

I'm ganna gold prospecting until I can't walk as its nature, creeks, mossy rocks and mostly just a break from the rat race...........I know you have too many followers to read em all but I think your a bloody good human being

Remember the art of not giving enough info so that others can find your location! The East - West pattern is a great clue, if it is true. So do you want us to give the exact location of the mine? Challenges are a hoot!

Awesome video ! I'm going to say the gold from your samples came from the wash below the mine dump. Your cross sample of the exposed vein looked like a juicy spot but weatherization maybe beat you to the gold.

[@fatherofhope]

Thanks for another great video! I recently met an older gentleman who said he knew you and appeared in one of your videos once, while I was prospecting on the Gold Searchers of Southern Nevada claim near Johnnie Mine NV. You're videos are an invaluable resource for amateur Prospectors like myself & I need to watch the ones on land status and how to stake a claim again, cuz I'm interested in some spots around there & I'm pretty slim (almost as much as the one you used to ride with) 😁 so I can get around on foot really well and found some pretty interesting spots out there, & getting around the desert ain't as easy some think, I think you're doing great! 😎 Mike

[@Askjeffwilliams]

Thanks Mike and we will have to make a new updated version for filing claims again ..... there are a lot of good spots out there and some are not known .... keep us posted and be safe running them hills

[@fatherofhope]

@Askjeffwilliams thanks for the reply. Now I'm definitely signing up for the Patreon thing! I was out there when you replied where there's no signal LOL... and somebody definitely knows about the spot I'm interested in, or did. There are rock piles, posts with no claim information.... but when I look it up on my land matters, I only see active claims nearby, not at the spot I'm interested in..... maybe it was a claim at some point, there's even a core drill sample missing from the hill I'm interested in..... and it's oozing with indicators, including hits on the gold Monster 1000.... I'll keep an eye out for new episodes and keep watching the Treasure Trove you've already compiled. I'll stay safe & you do the same 😎

[@ski6712]

some google earth photos in the colorado mountains near a busy highway were so good i zoomed in on a minivan on the highway and could see the outline of the driver in the vehicle and i could almost read the licence plate !! i was scanning the mountain/ rock exposed ridges adjacent to the highway for larger quartz veins and saw a number of them.unfortunately i was nowhere near the area and driving there would be 3 days or more. this was maybe 8 years ago and last year the photos of that area had been dulled down to the point you could no longer see even the type of vehicle other than its a automobile of some kind. but still many of the mapping photos give great detail of topography generally.☺. the Brecciated quartz vein .....we found one while working on a particularly good placer working cut 16 years ago . we photo located it for future reference and have a drill location earmarked there on our current mineral exploration permit. the vein is 1 to 2 yards wide and exposed for 45 ft before running under a cap of andesite.
