my first time just outside quartzite, found a small chunky long nugget in the side of the wash metal detecting within 20 min... went back 3 months later, about 15ft from that spot in the wash, right on top of the bedrock was its relative, they looked so much alike, cant wait to explore that area again someday

Hey, THANKS for posting this video. I am a Bedrock-metaldetecting guy and know that I need to get out of the wash, but seem to have a mental block to do this. Something I have to work on.....Thanks Again for this helpful reminder. Gary

It's definitely hard to think outside the box sometimes, but as they say, gold is where you find it! Good luck out there ⛏

Thanks, Kevin, for the videos. That's what prospecting is all about. I run the 6000, mark the targets, move on, and my wife uses her monster 1000 to do the final digging and recovery of the gold. In Arizona, due to the lack of water, it takes about 100 years to move a piece of gold the size of a match head one inch.

This is called common sense and read about the area's. It also depends how big the flood is because the gold could still be in the bedrock! You checked the washout sand and bedrock first and moved on from the area's! Good video and great advice!

My grandfather was a prospector and a very good one. In the 70s he found a nice vein just off Morgan City wash about 2 miles W/NW of Old Christian Church road west of Lake Pleasant where it enters the wash. He staked a claim named Oregon Pipe mining claim. We spent about every weekend there blasting, digging, sorting and would thank lots of stuff back to Glendal😢where we would pan, dissolve in nitric acid and such. I think it was profitable because he used to show me all the bottles of gold before he took them to the assay office “I think it was called.” I still live in North Phoenix and would like to go back out there if anyone is interested let me know.

I did it! It was so much fun. I live in Phoenix and my friend and I go to the Tanks sometimes to get Gold Dust and a few nuggets. I have anice little collection of tubes of Gold. We didnt look for rocks,black diry or anything other than where the water hsd gone around small bushes in the wash. That's where we found our gold. It's not hard or c omplicated to do. :}
