[@2Qwk2C]

You're still the very best detectorist out there Russell. So glad you post, I learn something every time. Beautiful countryside, wildlife and of course ........the GOLD. You do it so well. You are the Magnet! Cheers mate :)

[@TheNuggetMagnet]

Thanks mate, l enjoy the challenge and Im always happy to pass it on as l "think" l am working it out, at the end of the day its persistence and investigating every noise, gold is sneaky stuff and will always keep you learning, really glad you enjoy the vids and l really appreciate the great feedback, cheers mate, Russell.

[@kevdimo6459]

Another video down for this trip Russell and really enjoying them keep them coming mate. 👍🏻

[@TheNuggetMagnet]

Gidday Kevin, good to hear mate, but that new coil should share the credit because it saved me, the more l think about it the more certain l am, its the magnet, pt 5 is on the table, cheers mate, Russell

[@jaybales3160]

Great video and exploration, congratulations. Was not easy but you persevered and ended up a winner in my book. Looking forward to your next episode.

[@TheNuggetMagnet]

Thanks Jay, that was a very lucky finish to the day and worth the extra hour of searching, its always fun and l love the hunt, pt 5 is on the table, always glad you enjoy Jay, cheers Russell.

[@fishpest2039]

Hey there, still picking up $ 50 notes,.. last one looked a beauty dig one hole and sieve out the metal would have been great to see a weigh up of it.. Nice to see no flies on you they've all departed, must be time to head for the coast and a shower the tailor are on the chew... The meat on the hop looked healthy.. thanks for the troubles, cheers from FNQ..

[@TheNuggetMagnet]

Fairly coarse nuggets those last 3, don't think they travelled too far, l will weigh it up next episode, l bought some herring fillets back for Tailor bait, l drench them in salt and turn them into fish jerky, stays on the hook longer and full of flavour, cheers mate, NM.

[@fishpest2039]

@@TheNuggetMagnet feed yourself an extra week and all that great fish oil is great for the knees... so l'm told. The nuggets looked very rough on one side and smoothed on the other, must have been hanging against something,. Good times matey, have a ball

[@dingydate]

No dough about it mate, just watched this video, the quality of this one is very good , all the way through nice and clear and the sound track is good as well , interesting and easy to watch , a trench not just a hole for three nice pieces . Keep up the good work. Cheers Chris.

[@TheNuggetMagnet]

Gidday Chris, every now and then it all comes together and then theres editing, glad you enjoyed mate.

Thanks for the video. Big Red in the back area there. Go the 4500. I’m learning a lot from you and I hope I can get it together as much. Cheers.

[@TheNuggetMagnet]

Your welcome Gregory, those big reds are very cautious and don't hang around long, glad you are getting something out of the videos, its really just getting out there and staying positive, l hope you get the chance, cheers mate, NM.

Mate, love all your vids, have learnt plenty, now just gotta find the shiney stuff 😃😃 keep up the great work. 👍

[@DetectaBull]

Awesome nuggets, well done matey. Always look forward to seeing you put up another vid. I want more.....more.....MORE! 😁😁

Can I come with you next year? 😁😁

The last piece was beautiful, greetings from Turkey.

Glad you enjoyed mate, it was a great way to finish the day, greetings back from Australia cheers NM.

[@tyroneclarke1666]

Hi mate. Came home for lunch. See you had put another video up. Laid back on the couch to watch it lol.. Very relaxing indeed. I’m learning more and more with every video. When I get the gear one day, apart from settings, I reckon I’ve leant enough from you cobber to have a crack at it. Would be interesting to bump into to you one day for a chat. Kindest Regards.

[@TheNuggetMagnet]

Gidday Tyrone, well mate if its a GPX 4500 or 5000 l uploaded a video for the settings, the same as l use, so its just finding the patches, glad you enjoy mate and that you get something out of them, it makes it worthwhile, cheers NM.

[@joeljeffery8704]

Lots of nice nuggets!!! Beautiful gold. Are the flies a bother this time of year? I haven't been getting any notifications for your videos. Now I have a little catch up to do. Thanks, really enjoyed. Be safe and have a great day.

[@TheNuggetMagnet]

Gidday joel, l cut most of the digging out and got to the good stuff, mate those flies are always around, they are small bush flies that jump on anything that moves but they are part and parcel and theres no escape, l hardly notice them anymore except the ones l spit out, glad you enjoyed the upload and l really enjoyed that wire looking gold you found, its amazing the varieties it comes in, keep filling that pan mate, cheers NM.

[@1winnemucca1]

good effort, really enjoy your experience. keep it up buddy

[@gumbysenduro6546]

Bloody rippa cant wait to get over that way, thanks to you for the inspiration :)

[@peterobrien7465]

Another great video, thank you. Are you on a lease in W.A?

[@TheNuggetMagnet]

Glad you enjoyed Peter, most ground in WA is under lease, at times the leases become "PENDING" and this is when it is legal to gain access, access to live leases is rarely given, cheers mate, NM.

[@MidwestDavesGoldProspecting]

Awesome video. I have to come to Australia some day !

[@TheNuggetMagnet]

Glad you enjoyed Dave, it certainly is a great place to visit, cheers NM.

[@darrenhenry1609]

Hello mate, enjoy watching your videos, just wondering how the new coil goes compared to the 17inch advantage ? Keep up the good work..

[@TheNuggetMagnet]

Gidday Darren, l found it way more sensitive to smaller and deeper targets, its a much better coil, glad you enjoy the uploads, cheers NM.

[@dingydate]

LOVE THAT COIL, THAT WILL BE THE NEXT ONE.

[@TheNuggetMagnet]

Its a beauty, super sensitive and a whole new learning curve for me, the fainter signals and deeper targets are what l need to get use to, you cant go wrong, cheers.

[@Deliquescentinsight]

So how do you do over the course of a year, do you manage to make a quid?

[@TheNuggetMagnet]

Each yr differs but l always cover fuel and have a bit left over, will have to wait to see if l can say that in 4 months time, its getting tough, cheers mate

[@LanceMcCormick]

Nice Job! Wish I had some dirt with gold in it around me! HA

[@TheNuggetMagnet]

Gidday Lance, glad you enjoyed, do a bit of research mate because sometimes its closer than we realise, cheers NM.

[@LanceMcCormick]

@@TheNuggetMagnet I can find gold on the beach if someone losing a ring! ha I live on USA coast, just sand and shells here. Have to drive 8 hours to mountains to try! If you find a rock we get amazed!

[@LaylatheBoxerDog]

Hey, new to the channel. I'm a pom, could you tell us when you find a nugget the estimated value of each you find please? Keep up the good work

[@TheNuggetMagnet]

Gidday mate, its about $60 AUD per gram but it fluctuates so l would be guessing anyway, it also depends on its purity, the method you sell it and so on, so $60 per gram is the average l use, hope you enjoyed, cheers NM.

[@Ghryst]

"you can pick the patches, but you dont get to pick what size the gold will be" well, actually... larger nuggets come from smaller veins, and smaller dusts come from larger veins, due to larger amounts of hydrological activity in larger veins, resulting in regular hydrological disturbances of vein during formation.. basically, where theres a lot of waterflow (gold lodes develop from a solution of heated, pressurized, sulfated water) the gold is finer, where there was slower waterflows and less geological activity, the gold dropping out of solution has longer to accumulate into bigger nuggets. long story short - find bigger nuggets near smaller veins. now, how to find smaller veins?

[@TheNuggetMagnet]

It certainly has been tossed about over the years with lots of broken bedrock, some may not even be patches but remnants of an old creek, but putting a bit of thought in is what keeps it interesting and keeps me guessing so cheers for the valuable input, great comment.

[@Ghryst]

@@TheNuggetMagnet you can thank this yankee for those thoughts ;) kzbin.info/www/bejne/nJmse5ega7OVeLs

[@Ghryst]

@@TheNuggetMagnet off-topic : i read on one of your other videos that you were concerned about your lack of uploads during lockdown maybe losing followers .. how about reviewing your detector? (if you've reviewed it already, im yet top watch that vid) sweeping techniques, etc? just a suggestion. something like a "how to" on sweeping technique (speed, height) would be good for beginners, and how you set up the detector on-site would be good for the more experienced. damn, imagine if everyone had the machine you have, there'd be nothing left out there :D

[@TheNuggetMagnet]

@@Ghryst Yeah its a good idea mate but im stuck here in suburbia surrounded by power lines, l wish l lived in the fields, those borders will open soon, without having to watch through them all l tend to move a bit faster swinging when looking for a patch then slow right down when l find it, coil bumping along the ground, so "low n slow"

[@Ghryst]

@@TheNuggetMagnet when you get out again, you'll have to do a timelapse of you searching, from one nugget to the next non-stop

[@punaheleboy]

Thank you for the video. Although, seems as go, you should check both hands before you droop

[@queenjane7054]

NM. How long have you had your detector ??

[@TheNuggetMagnet]

Gidday Jane, I bought it in 2008 for my first trip in 2009, but l am thinking it might be time for a 7, cheers mate, NM.

@@TheNuggetMagnet found my first Nug today Russell 1 gram on the nocker, looks like your Christmas tree one on one of your videos, it's, a, nice looking spot to, massive Quartz reef sticking out above the ground about two feet and about 70 or so metres long, I found it in a small rain run of about a foot to two feet wide, there were other signals but it was starting to get dark and we were pretty deep in the boonies, thanks for all your knowledge bro, you are the master 👍🌟

[@TheNuggetMagnet]

@@dack4545Great stuff, well you have proved there is gold there in the area, maybe mark your finds to see if there is a pattern or run to help narrow down your search, theres always a beauty hiding there somewhere, best luck mate, cant wait to hear more.

[@treebs9516]

Hi Russell another great vid ;-) how often do you dig junk? I notice its gold only in your vids or do you go to no junk spots? How often do you have days where you dont get any gold when detecting? cheers

[@TheNuggetMagnet]

Gidday mate, glad you enjoy, not often, but finding leadshot still in the ground can be a great sign, sometimes l come across old camps which are full of rubbish, l tend to dodge them, sometimes l record rubbish but simply delete, its never all gold, l find gold most days but sometimes only .5 of a gram, again not worth videoing, but you never really know what you will come across out there and that's the carrot, cheers mate Russell.

[@chrisbrooks2062]

That new coil definitely does punch deeper for those nuggets! Keep up the good work! Did you end up smelting your fines?

[@TheNuggetMagnet]

Gidday chris, it does mate, a great new coil super sensitive to even deeper small targets, signals are faint but probably would have been non-existent with the 17 x 11 Advantage, but it was only possible by generosity and support to my channel from people like you, without that coil things would have been very different so thankyou again chris, and yes mate, l chickened out and sent it all away, will let you know the results on patreon, cheers Russ.

[@mrgreenswelding2853]

@@TheNuggetMagnet if you need help on how to purify your gold, I maybe able to help. Just found your channel, I'm interested in getting out for a detect in QLD somewhere. I bought a garret scorpion gold stinger, but been refining east for gold for about 6 months.

Thanks Russell another great video .we had similar ground out from Kalgoorlie it drove us nuts as we a still learning the trade⚒

[@TheNuggetMagnet]

Glad you enjoyed Dave, doesn't matter how long you have been detecting for, new ground is always a learning curve for us all, even changing coils can take some getting use to, mineralised ground can be frustrating but is usually good for gold, hope you did alright mate, cheers NM.
