Wow great operation!! my dad and I have been dredging in southern Oregon and Northern California with our pro line 5 inch for about eight years now!! Love mining. Congratulations.

[@daviddrexler7268]

Thank you for sharing! Great video and really the complete story of an real operation! kepp up the great work and have luck!

[@Drifter6942]

That was a great first season !! Finding that old stuff is pretty cool !! I was working a claim back in the late 80's out in Hixon and we found rock carvings of people feet. One was broken from the hoe, but the other one was in perfect shape and in perfect balance when you set it on a level surface. What you are doing now is exactly what I am going to try this year myself out back of the Bowron area

[@Askjeffwilliams]

great build sonny Jim.......hope you got a nugget trap on that Trommel didn't see one on the back.......that is what we are talking about ....cool miners pick and a shoe to boot hahahahah nice pan of Shiney there my friend ....with that additional 270 excavator you will need a bigger Trommel hahaha great memories right there...love the shot of the Black Bears at the end

[@Anthonymoth]

Ask Jeff Williams Didn’t have much of a nugget trap no, I had a boil box on the second sluice that I added. Planning on going back next season with a bigger operation. Will make sure I have a defector next time as well! Memories for a lifetime! Hard to match the excitement back home after living the miner life up north. Thanks for watching 👍🏻

Amazing jeff commented! Hey where are you mining? I found an amazing creek in west nippising and also a couple rough diamonds. Ive literally been doing what you guys are without knowing people do that lol. Building. Digging looking! I need more man power though. No young guys want to work these days! Except my 11yr old son. That boy shoveled 6 yrds with only a drink inbetween. All on his own. 😅

Great video. Nice fab work. I could feel your excitement as more equipment and fab work started showing up. Folks back home don’t understand it ain’t all about the money. Thanks for sharing your story.

And in 100 years the new technology of gold prospecting will increase 10 fold,, and the new miner will say, they never had this equipment back then and left behind lots,,,, as we do say now ,,, great vid, solid effort mate.. cheers from Australia

That's doubtful... in a 100 years at current rate the leftists will have totally banned all mining due to "environmental racism" and "imperalist selfish" personal ambition!

[@donkEEpunch85]

So, by doing so much of this with your own hands, did you come out ahead or at least break even? This is one hell of a setup and you did one hell of a job getting everything into place! Much respect man.

Thank you and good luck my friend! I will be mining again starting in May, hopefully get some new videos up then!

[@rickszabo4312]

That's a lot of hard work. Have mined the Germanson from the bend to the number 7 pit at the airport , come across 3 different kinds of gold and found the gold in different types of strata. Had one test pan after the hoe opened up a hole at the entrance to Halloways bar and it weighted up a little more than 5 grams, the next day was our best day ever, we chased it for week under that nice boulder clay, then we come across where the oldtimers had creamed it, the Manson's the same way,the going gets good and then you start finding square nails and timbers, just can't believe the oldtimers mined all that by hand.

[@Anthonymoth]

I bet we have some stories we could share, when were you working up there?

[@rickszabo4312]

@@Anthonymoth You bet, still go up there to see friends, worked for a few outfits from 83 to 87 , pulled wrenches and ran loader and cat, keep plugging away at it ,the only problem you find up there is when you go big , you run out of ground quickly, mining underground and washing gold at the germansen pit in the winter of 85-86 was pretty cool. The rules to mine now , make it a game, only the wealthy can play.

[@Anthonymoth]

rick szabo I bet we have the same friends, very cool that you worked in there. I heard the cleanups out of those drifts were very impressive. I agree, if I went full scale I would mine the bench I’m on in a year and be out of work. Think I’m gonna go back slightly bigger but just do it for a hobby and keep the day job. Maybe mine one month a year sort of thing.

[@BeefyPrepperthegolddigger]

Great video!!! Beautiful gold!!!

[@pertinentparadigm1337]

Bad ass man! Love the custom work you welded up yourself, looks profesh AF! For any "environmentalists" in the comment section, reclamation after mining actually improves the environment... assuming that's at least half of the dislike ratio...

[@Anthonymoth]

Thank you! Yes your right, the entire area had been mined twice before me, once in the 1870’s and then again in the 1930’s. But you could hardly tell with all the regrowth, and of course the old timers didn’t even bother with reclamation.

[@grandexporter]

I just love this video... I find it inspirational... Im in a weird place on my life and i hope to my own gold mine... Always loved gems, i worked in mine after mine... But i really want to start my own of with a few friends

[@JasperKlijndijk]

I'd say prepere well, be critical about the claim do as much research as you can because no matter how hard you work, the gold in the ground will determen the outcome. Only mine the best place you can possibly find! On average ground you can go bankrupt if critical equipment breaks down once to often

[@Amitjiddijat8076]

Awesome man, I did same in Sudan desert in the up north part, we used dry filtration of soil in the bed of ancient valley used to be a path of many seasonable waterways and rivers, at some point my monthly production of gold reached one and half pure gold of high grade close to 999 :) I might be able to share a short video showing how we do that dry style :) Would you pls tell how much it cost -material wise- to make similar trommel as yours considering I can make it entirely my self! I would really appreciate if you could share with us a detailed information on the process required like how to claim and what options available! Thanks for sharing..

[@robertpas4982]

I don't know much about gold mining but i do know a lot about heavy equipment and i would recommend that you get a tracked skid steer for better traction and grip

[@Anthonymoth]

Got rid of the small gear, upgraded to a rock truck and front end loader 👍🏻

[@SlatcoAu]

How much improvement in recovery did you see when you added the extra 20 ft of sluice? Did it allow you to run longer between cleanups?

[@Anthonymoth]

SlatcoAu honestly not much! The extra 20 foot sluice only caught 1% more gold then the first 10 foot sluice. Every 300 grams you would get in the first sluice, you would get around 3-4 grams in the entire second 20 foot sluice.

[@SlatcoAu]

@@Anthonymoth Good to know. I was considering doing the same thing to my setup but I don't think the benefits outweigh the cost. Also need to leave some gold behind for the guys that will be re mining my claims in 125 yrs lol

[@mwnciboo]

@@Anthonymoth I suppose it is insurance if your material changes and the riffles in the first 10ft get clogged...

nicely done!

[@IronWarrior95]

30oz? I hope in one week or two.. or do you mean the whole season? If yes, how long was the season? Because it looks like you could really make at least 10oz to 15oz a week in average and a 16 week season could really make a change.

I really like that wash plant. I need to build one

[@frequencymanipulator]

What happens to the land after this process? Is someone responsible for replanting it?

[@Anthonymoth]

A fairly substantial amount of money is posted in the form of a bond and held with the government. In order to get that money back we have to follow a reclamation plan which includes filling back in all test pits, re-contouring the surface, spreading all soil/organic material back on top, and yes if the government inspector requires we also can seed or plant trees.
