One of the things I loved from the first moments I started watching was your personality saying, "I hope to EARN your subscription". Not begging for it. Glad to see you getting healthier. All the love

[@stevemclaughlin2363]

Love the video guys. It was priceless seeing Steve’s reaction when you said the nuggets came out of his tailings.

[@rob1130ob]

I'm so happy to see you up and out so soon after surgery! Don't push it too hard, we want to see your videos for the next few decades.

[@Redneckiniowa]

For some reason, every time I watch your videos, I picture you in an educational type setting teaching teens and young adults (even us old folks,haha.) about geology. You have the perfect personality, knowledge, and experience for it. Your enthusiasm is very catching.

[@Danhurd]

Thanks, that means a lot!

[@richardyoung1657]

Have you watched Dan's videos that he did with his students at school, he is quite entertaining for the students,

[@Redneckiniowa]

@@richardyoung1657 I haven't yet, and I didn't know about them, so thank you! I had a hunch he may have had previous experience teaching/entertaining with the younger folks, I know I would have enjoyed school a lot more with teachers and guests like him, that's for sure!

steve is great what a cool guy i loved how happy he was for dan and how funny it was when dan trick him at the start

[@FlyingDaddy721]

Steve is such an awesome dude. The amount of joy he got after seeing your take away was great.

[@chrislilly1463]

Thanks for taking us along! Wow! So nice of Steve to let you go poke around! I think you said “day one” so I hope there is more. I wish there was more actual mining content out there and not just the scripted made for tv shows. If there are more videos of this trip coming, I hope you got to see the plant in action. I’m hoping once your own permits are in place, you do a series on startup to production. Wishing you a speedy recovery Dan! Woo Hoo!

Dan, the only thing that could have made that better was if you strung him along for another minute or 2 about how great his tailings are, I think he would have imploded, the look on his face when you said it was from his tailings, priceless. Look after yourself, get well no mater how long that takes, all the best to family as well. Keep Safe & Keep Rockin.
