Hi MG good vid as always and love your effort and humour. When you do a vid are you able to tell us why you choose to work the particular area? Eg In this vid you said the ground was natural and untouched. So what made you choose this spot? Either way, the soil is a beautiful red colour which is a great sign.
@MinelabGold4 жыл бұрын
Hi Derek, thanks mate glad you liked it. Many areas pretty much show the signs of potential gold bearing material. But this spot was the similarities between another ridge which outcropped the same material. Oh yeah very warm grounds as well. Lovely reds hey mate, great question.

Yeah usually its around the edge and maybe 1 inch inwards, best way for you to check is just have it running and use a bird shot and take it around the coil from outside to in and find that spot.

@@MinelabGold fires aren't good but there are ways to grab the 'monoatomic' gold dust. I'm not saying I'm right because I'm not experienced but it's like, universal. The dust sticks to bubbles. If you froth it up in foam and collect it like from the top of the container, you can dry it and burn it. The only way, greenly, is to catch the smoke in a series of chambers of water. Carbon capture uses a shower to max the surface area. It could be steam. The fuel should be sun. Zeroo pollution is possible.
