  • Olá. Eu moro no Brasil, Santa Catarina, cidade Blumenau. Comprei um Bounty Hunter tracker IV. AMADOR. " Eu sei que preciso comprar um detector mais "poderoso", mas por enquanto vou começar com o tracker". =) Eu gostei dos seus videos, eu realmente acredito que você encontrou todo esse ouro. Você acha que eu posso encontrar ouro em todo tipo de terreno ?

    Abraços e SUCESSO.

  • @rangelsc YEs you can find gold in all terrain, more important than terrain is the underlying geology. Regardless, it is definitely a lot easier to swing a detector in a desert / arid environment than on the side of a mountain or in a jungle. Thus terrain is a very important factor in the art of gold prospecting..

  • Hi again Zac, nice work, this is what got me started into prospecting. It all started with the opal and now I have a few hundred bits with some real nice cutters. Im going around Easter to lightning ridge for another run, then to do some gold prospecting in corner country. Also have found sapphire & emeralds. If u like I can email you some pictures. Well happy hunting. Alan

  • @AlanRead1 Hi Alan, thanks for comment. Good for you, hope you have been out there of late and have found some good stuff.. Where you chaing emaralds around Torrington NSW? I know of a few real good finds around this district, one of 7000 cts right on the side of track!!. Just goes to show whats out there for those who are keen to look..

  • Good stuff, thanks for sharing these vids! Would be even better if you got a HD camera, 240p doesn't cut it when looking at those beauties, we need 720p or 1080!

  • @npawn thanks for the comment, I think my camera is 720p, the gear is not the problem, more the operator.. In anycase I like' Dogma 95' style cinamatography..

see all

  • 15-20k worth, you should buy some nail clippers

  • what's this worth bud?

  • Brings back memories of prospecting the outback in 1973 ... still got a few gold specimens from Southern Cross, Western Australia ... have a good Chrissie mate ... pity I can't get down to Coogee Beach (the one in Perth) and catch a few rays ... instead of rusting away in the rainy old UK ... but she'll be right mate .. no worries ...

  • Make more vids

  • @zaqq22. Hi again I was in WA looking for emeralds, haven't been to Torrington yet. I'm planning another trip soon. Your welcome to come along. Got to go back to a nugget patch. Well inbox me if your interested. Should be a good team with some of our best prospectors heading on this run, including one of minelabs field day instructors. Hope I can produce like you guys can.

    Well hope to hear from you!

  • CAN YOU TAKE ME WITH U??? I WANNA MINE gold and all kinds of stuff.... Hmmm When i plan my trip over there maybe i can book someone to take me mining?? anyone know?
