Nice video find!

Beautiful gold.

All the best,

Lanny
 
360 buckets before a clean out ?????
I don't have the patience ten would be the max for me -- I guess it all depends on how much black sand you are getting.
I wonder how much they lost if any.
Nice reward
 
That's Adam and Wade. They're definitely some go-getters! :thumbsup:
 
AzViper, did you film that?

How is the knee?

No... I just happen to find it on YouTube. I got a kick out of the guy saying something about his grandmother would be watching so he had to careful not to slip with the tongue. Have not seen my doctor as I sure he does not want to see me. Right now is not a good time as I have lots to do at work with the new owners. I am just biting my tongue and sucking up the pain and try not to look like it hurts to walk.

Saw that video a while back. Got a kick out of it. Still think of it once and a while.
 
Hahahaha when you find gold in the last riffles it means you lost a whole lot more. Exactly like sluices/dredges you want it in the first 12" and NOT anywhere near the last 12". Sounds like NO cleanups daily so just blowing that gold back into the wind :dontknow: John

I'm guessing you haven't drywashed in a while John? Those are the top 3 riffles, riffles on a drywasher are "backwards" to riffles on a sluice.

Drywasher was cleaned out every 10 buckets for those who are wondering.

90 buckets a day with clean outs every 10 buckets, Adam and Wade are MONSTER diggers and they earned every speck of that gold. :thumbsup:

Heavy Pans
 
Barry I was going to say the same thing. John the expert did not follow the tray from when it was removed to when it was placed on the buckets. John you need to get your eyes checked.
 
^^ you're still around?
 
NICE! 92 bkts /day average, now that's what I'm talking about. You boys ever want to come out for a California vacation just holler. Got a nice cool river for you to play in. Would love to see what the cleanouts looked like on a bazooka miner after 368 buckets, production like that might make up for no dredge
 
The before and after photos of a completed wash are amazing, bedrock cleans as a whistle, and hand stacked walls that would make the Chinese green with envy.
