The Nugget Hunters Extreme Terrain Detecting for Placer Gold Nuggets
Me and Gary @TwoToes and Kellen @YellowFeverProspecting locate some Ancestral Yuba Gold Channel Gravels of the Sierra Nevada .
The Issue is it's in a Extremely difficult place to detect at. Lets just say you don't want to fall !!!
Gary has challenged us to see who can get the most Pieces and weight !!!
He said he's going Feast or Famine !!!!
Can we beat him or is he going to get bragging rights ??
Watch and see how many Placer Gold Nuggets are mixed in with the Blue lead deposits and how much Clay is mixed in to.
The Ancestral Yuba River Placer Gold Deposits have historically been very rich I hope this is the case with this deposit.
I always enjoy Exploring new spots and checking old ones too just to make sure I'm not missing any Gold .
It's hard not to think about the old timers and there search for Gold while your out walking and working where they did .
The search is the same just with much better tools and mush fresher water !!!
I often wonder if when they found a Placer Gold Nugget in 1848 during the California Gold rush if they took the time to look it over and appreciate it's beauty like we do today ?
On this trip we are using our Minelab SDC 2300's Metal Detectors to aid us in our search for those Elusive Gold Nuggets.
Thanks for watching i hope you enjoyed the video
