Finding GOLD in the RICHEST vein in the mine.

[@tobypullen4668]

Dan 'The Man' Hurd coming back at us witH Jason... Yanoe this is gonna be good

[@jchrizzy6995]

Fr, they always seem like they’re having fun and they’re both so knowledgeable about minerals. Love both their solo vids to be sure, but their collabs are what I’m really excited for 😂

[@kellyharper367]

Old disabled house bound dusty rusty rockhound here: Hey Dan 👋...what a great video! Beautiful scenery...good company...I'm so happy you make these adventures available to us who can't get out and do this stuff! So interesting too...very educational. Say hello to Bellingham for me...I lived up in Birch Bay for 12+ years. I sure miss that area....So beautiful! We had an eagle arie in our backyard...I miss hearing them chortle in the spring. Now I have buzzards in Michigan....but I tell myself they're just eagles with alopecia! Lol!!

[@richardgrandfield4529]

Disappointed in this I see nothing

[@henrikhansborg7491]

Cooking dinner and watching Dan Hurd... Love it

[@patchvonbraun]

I just love watching your collaboration with Jason of MBMM. I have a buddy who got his prospecting license in Ontario, and he had a small silver/gold claim right here in Eastern Ontario. We may do a bit of prospecting just for fun this summer. But you west-coasters are so lucky in this regard--there's just more/easier gold out there....

[@RiverRoseResourcesLtd]

Start my morning off with some Dan Hurd Prospecting, then get to walk the Shuswap with my kids after, perfect Sunday!

[@timothyodonnell8591]

Dan - This is one of my favorite videos of yours. You and Jason compliment each other well. Plus, it was very educational, with even a little gold sprinkled in for good measure. I can't wait for part 2.

[@jimmyfumbanks6081]

a lot of enthsiasm , but about 1 gram

[@dineshbhusal5051]

He's living my dream. Unfortunately we don't have gold mines or rivers with gold here where i live.

[@erikmull4684]

Contrary to belief there is gold in most every river just not enough to have it be fun or worth it

[@WastrelWay]

@@erikmull4684 I visited Austin, Nevada once, since I live in Austin, Texas, and there is a lot of silver there. It's in little black veins about half an inch wide, separated by a foot of rock, all over the place. You can see them on the roadcuts. But it's simply not practical to tear down a whole mountain of rock to extract it. There's an amusing story about some Mormons who started a lead mine just north of Las Vegas, Nevada. They were trying to smelt out the lead on-site, but they couldn't get it right, because they always ended up with this black stuff contaminating the lead. They gave up. Twenty or 30 years later, someone else visited the site to explore it. The black contamination was silver. Lead and silver often go together.

[@AdamsonGeomatics]

You can do it too!

[@jamesbell8861]

What a tonne of fun ... can't wait to see the results !!! Staying tuned !!!

[@patrickc.allenlive4373]

Thank you very much! For the exciting rock mine show.

[@adventure002006]

That was exciting. Over the years I have watched Jason’s, Pauline Pauli’s, Sierra Gordo and Dan Hurd. Great to see Dan working with all of the above. Great to see how much a community Prospector are.

We just love the collaborations with Jason. Another great video Dan. . . . . . . .

Living in Denmark, 100+ miles from the nearest rock or spec of gold. But dreaming of trying to pan (and maybe find) gold once in my life, all thanks to your videos. Keep it coming Dan! Greetings from flat and windy Denmark.

Maybe a vacation to Scotland?

[@hunterfulghum7170]

Another great video Dan. Thanks to you and Jason!

[@BearWa11ace]

It's always more fun when you guys work together! All the best to you.

[@lookronjon]

Hi Dan. Take care of yourself. Take a break when needed. You have inspired me to go out and pan this summer. I have heart issues too. Started when I was 32. 59 and still going. Good luck on all of your ventures. Cheers from west of Denver. BTW. Great job and awesome show. Jason is a beast.

[@denttech2515]

You two make a good team. You play off of each other really well. Can tell you are actual friends. Entertaining

[@philllynch3265]

Hi Dan. Can't believe I have been enjoying your videos for a lot of years now, through your ups and downs. You had around 400,000 Subs when I started watching. Now you have 1.9m WOW. Keep up the great work.

[@upperpeninsulabeautiful]

Hey Dan, I'm fascinated with your channel. I could watch it for hours. I prospected enough gold to build my wedding band set. I hand made it entirely by hand. I commented on your sapphire video that I have dug diamonds in Arkansas and proposed to my wife with a stunning diamond I found. I would like to get back into gold. I started a Lake Superior agate channel, which is my favorite rockhounding avenue. But gold prospecting is what I would like to do when my kids get bigger. Super awesome channel.

[@GSProspecting]

Great job all around fam. Keep on having fun and living the dream. Gold Squad Out!!!

What are the sparkling glitters in the upper left corner of video? Approximately at the 27:15 point in video.

[@Ellemenopea97]

What a great intro! I love seeing your videos, your excitement and joy is so contagious.

[@Pestsoutwest]

Back in the 40's my father went into a cave with 2 of his brothers. they got lost in the cave, and the lights they brought went out. hours later, one found a light, and the smallest one could crawl out. They never knew how close they came to death.

[@Pestsoutwest]

This story keeps me up at night

[@MarcusWolfWanders]

I watch too many cave diving and mine digging/exploring videos to be phased by this, but somehow I'm still phased by this.

[@stephenurmano2198]

Dan I had two retinal eye surgeries this year. Definitely get your eyes assessed as this could be critical to being able to saving your permanent vision. What a relief as my vision improves as it takes about a year to heal.

[@mikemullenix6956]

Dan seems to be a nice guy. Always positive and upbeat

It’s fun to see Jason here! I watch his friend down in the California ghost town! ♥️♥️

[@carlstepanian]

Thx for leaving a smile on my face after each episode you make!

[@seanb3516]

I've lived in this house for over 20 years and about 2 months ago realized there are 2 illegal gold 'mines' about 100 meters from my front door. I had always wondered what all those box shaped digs are around here. Turns out to be some sort of Surface Mineral Classification from the 1900's. Well, this old river bank/bar beside us apparently is flush with gold. Old rocks that crumble in your hands and have lines of flakes beside them. Speaking of which I am off to get some more material to crush and then it's blue balls...oops I mean Blue Bowls all day long. :D

[@sovereignlivingsoul]

great work out there, i'm excited for you, looking forward to seeing the results

[@markbrown6236]

The close up's makes your videos stand out. Having Jason along only makes you big time.

Very entertaining video! No gold mining here in SW central Florida, but we got Mr Hurd and Jason Baker to follow and learn a bit of knowledge. Ty and good luck!

[@Aussie21717]

Thanks guys I've just got a lease in Australia that the old timers got many kilos of gold out of and it is full of many quartz stringers big and small. Your video is helping me work out what I'm looking at. I've got some samples to send in for testing

[@joefarmer4465]

Your show is so meaningful for all the guys trapped in the matrix.

[@donaldfitzgerald8950]

Ya gotten lots out of that beard, Dan! Ya think Jason could compeat? Lol! ... I'm impressed with the team work, love the fact that Jason understands that having physical limitations needs assistance or the dreams end...love the companionships you share with one another ... keep the dream a reality 😊

[@johnizitchiforalongtime]

Looks like you found a nice vein. Nice chunks of quartz. Makes you wish you had super vision, but i bet you have gold in them there chucks. Keep us in the loop with information upon crushing for gold and assaying. You crushed it working it.

[@kingbigglez4068]

Dan, you have me hooked on this cliffhanger video. I’ve been searching your channel several times a day since you posted your latest video 2 days ago. Any update on when the crushing and results of the mining you guys did in your mine from that video will drop? I am sure I am not the only one looking forward to seeing how you did with the haul from the video. Thanks Dan!

[@FrednDeeDee]

I wanted to watch your video much earlier but by wife "Mommy Dearest" Needed me to mow the property to put a smile on her face. Well, she is now smiling, and I am as well watching Dan and Jason chasing gold. Thanks for the Invite!!!!!

[@fortuandpantifamily]

Hello, i do have what i think is an amazing stone or rock. I am not so familiar with rocks. It has some pyrite on top and theres a white color in the middle of the rock and inside those white has greenish thing. And it is moisting now

[@smoothmove7566]

I did enjoy the video today and can't wait for the next one. : )

[@markroster8395]

I can only imagine what the old timers could have managed if they had these tools with them.

[@nunyabisnass1141]

Depending on the funding and the size of the operation, they may have used air powered tools. Occasionally you'll find the remains of an huge sit compressor at these 100 year old mining sites with pieces of the plumbing scattered all around.

[@sandybulman2052]

They used water guns. Huge water guns which took the entire hillside with whatever minerals they took.

[@nunyabisnass1141]

@@sandybulman2052 I think it was a Looney tunes cartoon called "gold fever" that showed an old 49'r rememissing on the places and ways he was chasing gold. Everything from the 40ft tall wooden sluece, blasting, breaking, panning, and yes a fire hose. I had forgotten until you said something and that image popped up.

[@phoule76]

"I always like to go inside." Wise words, Jason.

[@dennismacdonald2003]

Thanks Dan I about to try the Sooke Ri er, great video

[@KnuckleBuster]

My best guess since I’ve been to the mine with you Dan is that they were planning on creating stopes up to the seam to mine it. That way the seam they line falls down and can be extracted easier.

[@aussie4x467]

[@leoofquirm]

Just a tool suggestion. You Mikita is nice, but you can get a Milwaukee that's cordless, gets good battery life, great power. This would give you easier use Inside, no cord to drag around or trip over. Also better range for outside with no cord. Then your generator becomes used for charging.

[@Danhurd]

I have one

[@ZZZZAPZAP]

Dan! Love your videos. Small request though, can you circle the gold you are seeing in post edit? Can't tell if what I'm looking at is the gold you guys are referring to.

[@TBMAvenger]

I've really enjoyed your adventures & productions Dan. Seeing you travel & get dirty & hands on, in a diverse rock, mineral & metal world, is cool. You should consider a trip to Michigan's Upper Peninsula & the mines, minerals & stones from Lake Superior shores to the Copper Country mines. Fine show again!

When Dan says "watch in Tomorrows Video" and its been 4 days.... i hope Dan's okay. Prayers!

[@michaelgrisafi821]

Canvas ground tarp is much needed to catch falling rock before it's adulterated by rubbish, but I've said that before. You have to set up your work station, when the work you do is real labor. Smarter not harder.

[@Danhurd]

It took us 3.5 minutes to pick up all the debris Guess I could have spent 3 minutes spreading out a tarp and saved 30 seconds, but then folding the tarp after would have taken 60 seconds....... And the crusher and shaker tables don't care if there is a bit of rubbish in with it.
