Also Chris, as a veteran ( no active combat due to accident and permanent injury) who now works with veterans with ptsd as a chaplain i want to say respect and thanks for the video you did on ANZAC day 23.

[@rockymountainlifeprospecti4423]

I second that, we own and run a military boarding home during deployment and PTSD refuge camp for military and veterans. We actively take them gold panning amd metal detecting ghost towns in the Rockies. All the best, until they all come home. 🎗🐾

Much love to all that help vets 13 years I served and everyone that supports is a massive help

Mick gets a hearty handshake. Godbless you.

[@hasmeadali7316]

You're truly awesome Chris Gadzee said that Mick hurt his leg. Hoping him full recovery. I truly miss him on your videos. Good luck and God bless

[@VoGusProspecting]

Yeah he's on the mend

[@Chris-vt5zb]

You need Mick's lucky scoup as well to get it first go..far out that terrain is steep,now you can go back with Mick so he can get his share Cool vid thanks Chris

[@robertstanton1668]

Nice. I'd be quite happy just panning that dirt you did before the crushing.

[@ScotlandsGold]

For a dreamer like me, that was great

Great finds! I love how you explain everything while you're looking for gold. Giving us all a good education! Thanks!

[@GeorgiaDogScrapper]

Congratulations on the finds, I still would go back to where you collected the dirt beside the vein and try again to see if you find more there. Then you will know if it was contamination. Stay safe and happy hunting

[@LanaLaughsRealLoud]

Chris, you're such a great educator guy and your videos are just off the hook, bruh. 😅❤

Perfect miserable day to watch you gold prospect rather than get wet on reedy myself. Love the hard rock, its so cool seeing the old timers workings and knowing thwy didnt quite get it all

Good day for Mick

[@rodneymiddleton1044]

Look at those gold pieces well done Chris mate you certainly worked hard for all you found much respect 😁

[@jenskoppka1870]

I really like it when you do hardrock gold prospecting. Interesting to see what the oldtimers hunted, looks like a fracture zone, where sulfide veins ventured into the schist and got decomposed due to weathering. Seems the oldtimers followed these weathered areas until it got too hard or to little gold for the effort. You showed that they followed the quartz vein downwards. By the way, I would not expect that ground water can leak gold out of a quartz vein leaving the quartz fresh as we see here. The sulfides are a different matter, they oxidise and get soft, trapped gold would become loose and can be panned out easily as you did. If you have the chance to get samples cut and polished, you could try to do something like Jason from Mt Baker Mining and Metals, looking on polished surfaces for gold with a microscop adapter on his phone. Doing such work gives a better idea where the gold sits. Just as an idea :) All the best, and happy hunting.

[@Larryosull]

Nice educational piece! keep up the good work!

Good to see a video with some content mate 👍

[@jamesdoran7985]

Thanks for the information

[@susanturcotte3176]

Awesome finds, Chris! Those 3 little specimens were well worth investigating that mining spot. I can't wait to see what you find in larger collections of that area. Who knows??? Perhaps a little nugg youet specimen that would make your day! By the way, when you pan out some of the dirt, I was amazed at how nice the material looked! Go get'em! Blessings from Alabama ❤️

[@dylanjames4537]

I've come to realise that gold can form in both the quartz and also its host rocks that contain these reefs, how gold can come to be is a educational process that's for sure, ive been looking at how the gold forms in veins where it comes into contact with hard intrusive rocks and supergene zones

[@wp.sworld.s]

I'd give mick some some gold poor guy never finds that much when he goes with you 👍🤓

[@48thstateprospecting]

Well I forgot to mention in my other post the intro music choice is effing awesome and yes mick deserves some of the gold BECAUSE WITHOUT HIS JAR you’d probably only have not lost the big chunk… back to the vid….

[@VoGusProspecting]

That's very true, he gets a cut. I'm enjoying the music too

[@cylonmk2]

Great vid as always

[@Deadly_Derka]

I detect reef mines the same and take 2 detectors. You’d be surprised what the Monster picks up that PI detectors dont. I think mineralisation sometimes masks the gold signal from the same rock with PI detectors. But the monster can tell if there’s both ferrous and non ferrous material in the same rock.

[@craig350ci]

I have a suggestion for you Chris, it might be a stupid idea but here goes. Why don’t you hold a raffle and go to followers property and see if you can find gold ? Maybe once a month ? As an example I live in NSW overlooking Wyangala dam, there’s supposed to be gold here but I haven’t found any yet, only done 2 pans so far lol. But according to locals there’s gold here and they say your likely to “kick a nugget”. Anyway just a thought. 😀

[@AussieSwagAdventures]

You asked the question as to if mick deserves a portion for useing hos container im positave if the shoe was on the other foot you wouldnt expect anything rhat sort of thing is what mates do for each other n beung a mate in my eyes means ill do what i can to help out my mates so to me a "thanks mate i used ya stupy pick bottle like you ve done is more than sufficiant but hey im a lil old school and i know both you n mick often prospect and try helping each other. Hey might not mean much but ya did ask us to comment n if this xomment helps you n your channel it s worth me opening my keybord n cimnenting. Keep up rhe awesome work n its good to see you letting your hair down with gadzee in these videos. Hopedully get to meet you all when im down

Hi mate , some years ago I was fishing on a small beach that had sandstone structure ,in a small water worn channel from storm water run off I saw a bit of gold , had it not been part of the marine reserve I would have dug it out as it would have been a nugget

[@jph8266]

Great video. How do you keep track of all the different samples you take and test?

[@johnfarrow5873]

Question sir are you allowed to start working formerly open gold mines or are you only allowed to sample around the outside of them and what are the rules about when you're done I know I've watched you fill your holes back in doing stuff but what if you're doing one of these wor quartz faces?

[@VoGusProspecting]

We can only sample.

[@connortrimnell2823]

I was just up there last week end Visiting family

[@llotus8740]

Yes. Mick should get a taste.😂😂😂

[@jamesolson4420]

It does look like a lot of work. But it can pay off

[@skildude]

finding gold on top of the spoil heap is probably not due to carelessness. The bottom doesn't have any gold because they are digging to the quartz and the top is the likely close to or in a quartz vein.

[@robertwilliams5242]

Did you notice that there was a tiny microscopic little piece of gold on your hand when you were showing the second piece you found

I'm interested in sluicing/panning, messing about down the creek/s etc. and I'm only interested in gold, well 90% anyway. If I only had one detector, which one would you choose, and if you can, it'd be handy to know why. P.S. I'm a would be grey nomad, mainly thinking of the east coast, thanks.
