Gold Prospecting and Rock Tumbling - great way to spend the day

[@dorseyblack9833]

My next door neighbor was a lapidarist, and I helped him build his rock shop 50 years ago. In return, he made me a custom Tiger's Eye ring. To this day that is my favorite semiprecious stone. It is very beautiful. 😊

My 12yo has her national geographic tumbler going on its 2nd round now. She is looking forward to getting out to find her own rocks to tumble. This lot is just what came with the tumber

Awesome video Crissy 😮

[@lynnschmidt8421]

Crissy I just love your videos! I can be in a bad mood and watching your video has got my stress level down! Thanks.

[@deshog999]

Hi guys, love watching you find gold, so envious. Your stones that you are tumbling…give them a light coat of clear polyurethane varnish and the colours will jump out. Let the varnish dry and they will stay colourful for ever ! Stay safe….Des and Shirley from the UK.

At least you braved the heat Krissy and ventured out for a swing well done on the sub gram find. And you will get there slowly on your rock project all takes time catch ya on your next adventure low and slow Krissy.

[@philippeklein2679]

guys! your efforts in this derivate hobby are awesome. you're thriving in exploration/ detecting and now also have a blast in working raw rocks filling you're pockets (excuse to fill pockets now?) And through everything, the base camp! What an achievement team, great to get us along following you. Thanks and Cheers

If you dip the rocks in resin they will come out with great colours. I worked with resin in artwork. it's amazing, and they will keep a strong colour. cheers Owen.

[@phillip9468]

G'day Krissy & Clint, it's seems that finding gold is becoming so much harder after half a century of metal detecting & grading. With the change of weather patterns however I think the incidents of larger scale erosion events will open up deeper ground previously unreachable. If possible you should try to gather your rock specimens from old creek beds & watercourses. A few swings with a shovel may just reveal some nice rounded water worn & polished specimens.

[@rufusirvin5279]

You should make a wind powered tumbler

[@bobcatman3844]

Nice work

[@LanceW-q2s]

Hi Krissy.Thanks for your videos very informative. Just heard two prospectors near Meekatharra lost there lives not sure how has been around 40c.Make sure you take plenty of water . Take cre.

[@OutbackGoldFever]

Very sad, we think they got lost since their gps was sitting on the table. It’s been over 40 every day for several weeks. Time for another “be safe in the bush” video.

[@waynearmstrong5233]

I seriously doubt that I would have found that nugget, your ears must be well tuned in to your detector. Well done on finding it! An amazing array of colours in those rocks, Ive only ever kept two rocks that I had found, one was a see through rock almost glass like, but what stood out was a bubble inside of it that was floating around in water. But Ive long since mislaid it. The other was an odd brownish rock that looked like it had been heated to a point of bubbling mud and cooled so quickly that the bubbling still remained. The way of nature is stunning in what it can create. Cheers Krissy!

[@OutbackGoldFever]

Isn't the variety of colours and patterns in rocks just amazing - love what some of them look like 😍

[@glentomkins3426]

Looks like the dogs got the best of the gold chasing! Nice rocks there, can't wait to see them finished! Are you planning to sell them online?

[@scruggsbuster9458]

Too bad you didn't find out a lot of gold but I know in Australia is hot cuz you're in the states it's winter time and there's a lot of pretty rocks over there so thank you for the video and I will see you on the next one

There is tons of Tiger eye through the Pilbara and Kimberley. Duncan road even has a tiger eye mine, should be no problem finding, however it will be in large slabs so take a decent hammer.

[@OutbackGoldFever]

I used to drive down that road almost every day, I had no idea 🫢 Thanks for letting me know!

[@robmadaffari6270]

@@OutbackGoldFever you will find it on geoview as a blue star

[@nicwilkin4743]

I don't really know but I was thinking , some of the shapes look pendent like , maybe try cutting and drilling them then tumble and polish, that way you can cut the bad bits out on your mini stone saw.

[@jfc213]

great stuff xx

[@uppanadam]

Love watching these videos!! Keep up the good work!! Tiger's Eye I believe is used in witchcraft if you watch the movie Practical Magic!! LOL!! Cheers from Adelaide!!

Will a clear coat of paint keep the color bright????

[@michaeljoshualewis538]

[@michaelhowell7211]

What are you using for a tumbling medium, stainless steel ball bearings, or just other rocks? Ball bearings tend to give you a smoother surface, and a better finished product.

[@rogerreed905]

Im guessing youl be selling these on your website ?? . . . You could sell devis dice to if you find them . Can devils dice be poished ?? Not tumbled but like you polish opal ? . . Love your videos . . Till the next time . Take care Bye from NZ 👍🇳🇿🍻💐

Hi all I'm glad all is going well .how are you plants coming on . Do you ever get near the opal area. I watch opal miners on TV they are beautiful rocks. I did have an opal ring but we got robbed and it was stolen. Nice to see your gard dogs on duty 😅 looking after you. As always have fun stay safe from England .😊

[@OutbackGoldFever]

We only get common opal around here, nowhere near as pretty or valuable as precious opal. We've collected a few recently, it'll take a bit longer to cut them but I'll make sure to show it in a video.

[@prebenviggofejr1414]

all that stones you found there in the middle of australia in the dessert-have been formed by water -in a sea milions a years ago- so there might have been water there or a sea / ocean -there when the earth was pretty young- they - you'll know it from Germny yourself around the beaches in northwest -North sea or- northeast /north Germany - easter sea / Baltic ocean - so its easy to find here in Denmark -in our 7500 km costline just different collered!

[@GaryPArmstrong]

I probably can answer that of what you reckon is water-washed rock, which is part of the story. Actually where Krissy is and all around the Pilbara and way up to parts of Nullagine the rock on top of the ground was formed 4.5 billion years ago and lets us remember the earth's surface would have been a lot different as there would have been volcanic eruptions that have pushed gold and rocks, metallic or not to the close to the surface of the earth ( 5ks down is where gold ended up in Western Australia 4.5 billion years ago). Now with the earth settling down and erosion of soil by wind movement eruptions and soil movement the gold has been exposed to be very close to the surface. Then the action of water etc has exposed and moved the gold and also eroded it out of the other rocky material with it we then get what is called Alluvial gold. This is what is called the geologist's view of how the earth pushed gold up (?)to the surface in Western Australia only. It gets you thinking about how it seems that we stand on top of the desert and there is gold just under the surface. To clarify a little better, just imagine a Spent volcano standing 5 Ks high and there is always a valley and the volcanic mountain starts to erode may then give you an idea of how the gold came to the surface when in a real sense it did not, just everything around it moved by wind, rain. Funny enough they say where you find gold always work your way North in Western Australia. Anyway, the Pilbara is just a beautiful place to be to look for gold.

@@GaryPArmstrong I know no problem - just that I know the eath is much older than we know about- and it has been much smaler billions years ago- and its still groing bigger. so all gud- it was just a note - not declame enything- I hope you find much more gold and be happy out there in out at nowwhrere like to joyened the videos enyway and sry my english!! 🙃🙃😉 take care !!
