Hi Chris I've posted you a little present in appreciation of the paydirt sample I won in your Patreon giveaway. I've recovered 1.15g of mostly very fine gold so far and there's a little more to recover yet. I'd noticed your "stampy" could do with an upgrade so I've made another one for you. Thanks for all your videos.

Hello Chris. I have enjoyed your content. I went with a friend metal detecting twice to the central Victorian Gold fields between Bendigo & Ballarat aria, where we went & detected found tons of crap. When we were tired we looked at every thing the Old timers left for us to see very interesting. We went to the place & spot where Australia's largest nugget was found, It started to rain so we travelled a short distance to the town of Donnelly where we visited the Miners museum. Where we had an interesting tour by an old timer, I am 82. As we toured the wonderful exabits, we came to the wonderful FIREARMS display where were told, That if any person walking or snooping around the diggings {who was not singing or calling out their name or who they wanted to visit } the shotgun was discharged. The display of shotguns & pistoles from 150 years+ are great, Seeing all this old wonderful gunsmithing, I never asked how many people were shot or killed. I asked" How many weddings did the guns participated in". The place erupted in laughter. So now you know why you find lead in the Victoria gold fields. I love your videos & our wonderful country, I live in NEWCASTLE nsw. The Bakery = Pie shop close by is not to be missed. ENJOY LIFE.

I´m very curious to see how the vein will give you more gold. Looks like a very high ammount of gold per ton. All the best and have fun in that new spot.

Well if it’s down hill set up a zip line to take the gold closer to the truck you can tie it to a tree and adjust the tension so it doesn’t slam and spill gravity is your friend mate.
