Looks so familiar to projects we’ve been doing 😃 I hope 30 lbs shipping didn’t hurt too bad !

[@GrooberNedJardine]

G'day Jason , the shipping only cost me an arm and a leg 💪🦵 so i escaped with no serious injuries other than that Cheers Champion , take care Bud . 👍👍

[@mandybrown7758]

So awesome you got some of the Ore from Jason's Mine bad to the bone 💪🏽take it easy on your back I hope you heal up quick 🙏

[@GrooberNedJardine]

G'day Mandy , yeah it was very costly to freight it to Australia but the temptation was too great , i couldn't resist , lol 🤣 My back is OK at the moment , thanks for your concern . 👍👍Thanks for watching and thankyou for your support it is appreciated . 👌👍

Great video Ned. I've been watching Jason mine that material. Heavy Pans!!!

G'day Rob , yes mate , i have been watching and following Jason for years now , he is a smart cookie indeed , with a great channel . Thanks for watching Buddy , and heavy pans to you too .👍 Cheers Ned ✌

good to see Ned Im looking at your next video with interest

[@GrooberNedJardine]

G'day Glenn , yes matey i'm looking forward to doing some more with Jasons Ore . Mind you , i don't expect to get much gold from such a small sample , because those guys are dealing with tonnage , but anything from it will be a bonus and just part of the fun . Thanks for watching and commenting mate , it is Appreciated 👍👍Cheers Ned . ✌

[@BiggestKev1960]

G'Day Ned, That's a good supply of Gold ore mate 👍 I have been watching Jason's videos, that's cool being able to process his ore in your own backyard👍 I'm waiting for part 2 I'm eager to see how much Gold you get from the sulfides. Thanks Ned you take care mate 👍👍Cheers Kev

[@GrooberNedJardine]

G'day Kev , it's just great to be a part of what Jason is doing over there with his new mine , and i appreciate the fact he is making his ore available to the World basically . I think he is a smart cookie and i think he is a pretty decent bloke in reality . I don't anticipate i will get much gold from such a small sample as this , when those guys are actually dealing in tonnage , but it is interesting and plenty of fun mucking around with it all the same . Anyway , Thanks for watching Kev , 👍👍Cheers Buddy .✌

[@BiggestKev1960]

@@GrooberNedJardine Yes it certainly is Ned 👍 I think you might be surprised by the amount of Gold you recover from the ore 👍 Thanks Ned & you're welcome my friend, take care 👍👍 Cheers Kev

[@GrooberNedJardine]

@@BiggestKev1960 Hey Kev , don't throw any of it away , i panned some out very carefully , then i panned out the catcher pan for any loses , and i emptied the wheelbarrow slimes into a bucket , and i left it to settle overnight , i just went outside and panned one handful of the slimes and it still had sulphides in it . This is going to be very difficult . I might roast some panned sulphides but i think it might be worthwhile just roasting the ore directly after crushing it , man it's hard to decide the best process . Anyway hang on to it all in the mean time , OK . Cheers Bud .

Good one James , i wish i had some of his bigger coarse chunks of ore just for keeping . Well have fun with it .

Hello Ned, take care. Quartz dust and silica must not be inhaled. But you are a smart man and will know that. Your protective measures were very good. The gold content in the white flour is amazing. Best wishes, pal 🇩🇪⚒👍🤠

[@GrooberNedJardine]

G'day Peter , yes the Silica dust is very dangerous stuff indeed . yes , hardrock ore like this has superfine gold in it , it is just a matter of how much . i do not anticipate too much from such a small sample , considering those guys mining it are dealing with tonnage , but we shall see my friend .

[@thesurfingprospector6345]

Well 30 lbs of dirt rocks yikes would have cost heaps to send Nev Nice ore too that muncher chews it up ay I think you need a millers table for it or Jason’s blue job Hope your back gets better mate know the feeling Cheers 🍻 CrouchOz

[@GrooberNedJardine]

G'day Crouch , yeah mate , the freight was ridiculous alright Sheeesh . 🤣 but it was worth it just for the fun of it all . The sulphides are very light as well , so i am doing OK with the pan , but yeah i could use my little ribbed mat miller table would probably work well too . Hardrock gold is very superfine so i am not expecting to get much gold from 30 lbs , but hopefully the journey will be interesting for me . Yes , i hurt my back again after several years of going along relatively pain free , but i did it at work putting up eaves sheets bending backwards can often do it to me . It's no fun getting old mate , as you well know , lol , 🤣 Take care Buddy 👍👍

[@UncleBildo]

Looks like your mill does a better job than mine! I have to re-tool a bit, getting more sand size than flour, and Gawd most that gold is tiny! I've only processed 15 or so lbs of it fully. Got a nice little starter bottle of gold. Also got some pretty decent specimens in the bigger chunks. Gotta have 30 or more of those sitting out currently. Cleaned some up with sulfuric acid, really brightened them up, the gold and tellurides show way stronger. For an amateur, this is pretty challenging stuff to pan, I'm sorta like a chimp shaking bugs outta a coconut or something with my technique! Got distracted from the ore, found an old Jeep to fix up to go hunt rocks with. Too many hobbies, so little time (and cash!)

[@GrooberNedJardine]

G'day UncleBildo , yeah , the crusher does a great job turning it into talcum powder . I am finding out It is very tricky getting all the sulphides , even the slimes still have considerable sulphides in it , so i might end up roasting it all . I am not expecting to get to much gold out of such a small sample , as Hardrock ore is superfine , it's not like panning in a creek where larger gold is concentrated in places . Anyway, should be fun mucking around with it . Keep on having fun matey 👍👍, lots of Hobbies means you don't get time to be bored , lol . Thanks for watching and commenting 👍 Cheers Ned . ✌

[@smokeandkippers]

Thanks for the vid. I've been watching this series on Jason's new mine and I'm very tempted to get 15lbs of pre crushed ore shipped to the UK but the gold is so fine I'm worried that it's a bit beyond me to pan it and not losee too much and get it reasonably clean. The shipping is killer so the return is probably dismal but I'm not in it to make a buck just wanted something other than the usual beginners paydirt to pan at home with the kids.

[@GrooberNedJardine]

G'day smokeandkippers , yeah, same here been watching Jason for years now , he's a pretty smart cookie , and decent of him to make his ore available to the world . I am finding out that it is very difficult to recover all the sulphides by panning , so i might have to try several ways of doing this , but i don't anticipate much gold in such a small sample , that was not the point or i would have bought paydirt . It is definitely not paydirt you're dealing with , that's what makes it more interesting . I say go for it if you can 👍👍. Cheers Ned . ✌

[@hardrockuniversity7283]

Hope the back gets better soon. What to you do for work?

[@GrooberNedJardine]

G'day Keith , yeah , i have had a bad back for around 30 years or so , it is a pinched sciatic nerve it comes and goes , i get it in both sides considering which side i injure at any given time . An occupational hazard i guess , how long it lasts depends , can be years , or sometimes only a week . But i am a self employed Builder so the only way i have ever dealt with it is just to work through the pain , i have no other choice Keith . There is no fun in getting old , lol ,,🤣 as you probably full well know sir . You and Eva take care of yourselves and may God bless you both .👍👍🙏

I follow Jason and watched him and Harry blast that stuff out. I'm surprised it got through customs. Dan Hurd has taken to sending his paydirt to Australia without dirt, just add your own.

[@GrooberNedJardine]

G'day Mick , yeah i wasn't sure how it would go through customs , i did message Jason and asked him to maybe call it a clean mineral sample with no organics , but i don't know how he classified it , it was a risk i took , an expensive one , lol 🤣 Customs opened one box and left their calling card in it and marked the box Bio 002 classification . So i might have got lucky . Cheers Bud , thanks for watching and commenting . 👍👍

[@TheRedWingMine-pm3lz]

I think you could have bought a round trip ticket cheaper than the cost of shipping that much ore, and put it in your luggage coming home. I was shocked at the cost to ship just a few pounds.

[@GrooberNedJardine]

G'day Don , yes i could have bought some gold Bullion for the price of the shipping costs , lol 🤣 but it wouldn't be as much fun as mucking around with this stuff . You are lucky to have your own private deposit to keep you interested and get a little bit of gold to boot . Great stuff mate . 👍👍Anyway , take care and thanks for watching and commenting 👌👍It is appreciated . Cheers Ned . ✌

[@ProspectorTripp]

Fun stuff, Nev Nice pup, too. I saw Jason at mbmm run and pan some of his mine material. He said the floating oily looking material were sulfides. I have a bit of ore that also has this oily looking stuff that floats and looks like oil. I didn't realize that it was a sulfide? Did you see any oily looking sulfide material floating? No biggie, really. I'm just curious if you saw it also. Liked the microscope views Thanks much, sir Peace Prospector Tripp

[@GrooberNedJardine]

G'day Matt , yes i saw that floaty oily film on the top of the water , but i don't know how you would recover it , maybe Acid ? But i panned it carefully , then i panned the catcher pan after doing multiple pans , it still had sulphides in it , then i captured what was in the barrow ( slimes ) , put it in a bucket , left it settle overnite and then panned one handful out and it still had sulphides in it . It is going to be very tricky . i think i am going to roast some directly crushed material without panning it . All good fun and games , lol 🤣 Anyway we shall see what we shall see , as Keith Bowen often says .👍👍 Cheers Brother .✌

Yeah in Canada the freight would be extreme and then add the foreign exchange of 30-40 cents on the dollar. That is why i can't afford his ore.

[@Naughty-W2T]

What is the name of the white powder used to mix into the stone?

[@GrooberNedJardine]

Hello there Naughty . I am not sure exactly what you mean here , if you are referring to the white substance in the pan , it is the quartz rock crushed up that you see in the pan with the sulphides in it , once it is washed it appears very clean . Or are you reffering to a flux mix that i will smelt the sulphides with . you might have to get back to me on that issue sir . Anyway , thanks for watching and commenting . 👍👍 Cheers Ned .

[@michaelburns9172]

Hope you didn't pay to much money for that . Have watched several videos about his ore not much Gold.

[@GrooberNedJardine]

G'day Michael , Well , all up the price was outrageous , i could have bought gold bullion for the price of shipping . I also have watched a few dealing with Jason's ore and yes i might get a tiny bead of gold from such a small sample , but i am aware of that . The point was to have some fun processing this stuff otherwise i can go out and find more in the creek or buy paydirt . This stuff is definitely not paydirt , lol , 🤣Anyway ,i will see how it goes mate . thanks for watching and commenting 👍👍 Cheers Ned ✌

[@TienGold1979]

Gold is in the rocks 🪨 you are great at separating them

[@GrooberNedJardine]

G'day Tien Gold , yes the Hardrock gold can be superfine and really hard to capture often locked up in the sulphides , so hopefully a bit of roasting and smelting might yield a little bit of Gold , fingers crossed 🤞 Thanks for watching Sir and your comment is appreciated . 👍 Cheers Ned . ✌
