  • how do you clean it all up so you just leave the gold?

  • @MrThedestroyer23 That takes alot of patience, most people just suk up the black sand and clean it later. I got in the habit of removing all black sand because a few creeks around here have naturally occuring mercury. Mercury instantly attaches to gold when they come in contact, and mercury is not the safest metal on earth lol. If you stick with it, it gets alot easier but at first it can be a hassle.

  • So what's the the amount of gold in dollars that a normal day would bring in?

  • @AzBirdDog Depends on who is hunting and where.....

  • CXool Vid, curious as to when yer going to start using a highbanker, yer production of material would go up by 100 percent or better...

  • @GreywolfMiner I occasionally use a sluicebox, its not likely I will ever use anything other than my pan. If you notice, almost all the gold was locked up in the bedrock. Around here theres not alot of gold in the over burden, so highbanking is not on my list of things to do.

  • Great video, you guys sure have the fever to stick it out for the time you do and for what yiou get. The big chunks make life worth living. I live in "The Land of Az" also, and am familiar with many of the Bradshaw drainages, can you use a backpack dredge, seems you might benifit from that and a small sluice. Any way, excellent vids, and great job on the crevacing.

  • @aex1611 Sometimes it pays very well, but it's still just a hobby. Finding a real payout is difficult, I can narrow the odds but I would never try to make a living off of gold.
