My biggest GOLD clean up of my life!

foreign [Music] [Applause] prospecting here welcome back to my channel and if you're new welcome I hope to earn your subscription today I'm back here at my buddy Tyler's Placer mine today we're doing a big clean out the last week of sluicing and there is going to be some epic gold in there I got a brief Glimpse yesterday of what it could look like and I tell you you will not be disappointed Tyler is up on the hill right now doing a little bit of reclamation moving some of his tailings around we're filling the pond right now so we can recirculate through the cleanups loose it's gonna be a few myths before we get going but I thought I'd introduce everything so wish us luck and I hope you enjoy [Music] thank you [Music] I've been sent on a mission to turn off the pump I don't know where the pump is but I see a trail and I see a hose so I must be going the right way [Music] here we are [Music] well the pond is full of nice you know nice drinkable water oh yeah shut off the pump down below and Tyler's just gone to go get the cons to run through his home-built cleanups loose or cleanup system it's got two sides on it the fines go out one side the course material goes out the other side big nuggets get caught up in the top vibrating table copper with a awesome little bucket Thumper before we do our cleanup Tyler just showed me some of the two millimeter plus material that we can expect to come out of there beautiful flakes I know everyone loves seeing gold but we want to see how much we actually got now I have to stop briefly and explain what just happened in the video my main camera the one that I take shots like this uh where me talking explaining glitched out for the rest of the day and the video was fine but there was no audio with any of the clips so I didn't get to really explain what we were doing with this cleanup my close-up camera still had full audio and you can still hear me talking all that kind of stuff but the main camera glitched out I do have a new one on order and I should be good from here on Ford but I'm going to continue this video a little different than normal I'm going to edit it so you can just sort of see the process anytime I pull out the close-up camera I'll explain things but you know the majority of the video that I take with this camera right here has no talking or no audio with it a little bit different we will be back to normal in the next video I hope you enjoy watching the process of this cleanup [Music] [Applause] thank you [Music] foreign [Music] foreign [Music] nugget picked out of the vibrating screen [Music] so Tyler's suggesting there's probably a couple ounces of gold in the Box here right now which is about double what he was expecting to find yesterday which is a very pleasant surprise to have [Music] three nuggets so far many more to come [Music] it's four [Music] aha I caught that one going through five nuggets so far although I'm sure there's lots that we haven't seen go by foreign [Music] foreign [Music] and here comes a bit of Clean Water straight from the creek just to rinse out the rest of the mud [Music] thank you [Music] now that's a wild looking nugget I think I might have to get this one off Tyler to auction off on my website because that is just the neatest looking nugget ever this looks like a lot of gold here but really this is nothing compared to what's in the other cut there the fine stuff that's where almost all of the weight actually comes into this but these sure look nice and we'll spread these out in the sunshine here let them dry really I'm just getting another excuse for getting a good shot of the gold gotta auction that one off [Music] all right foreign [Music] foreign [Music] two millimeter minus a little bit left down there we may have been a bit aggressive with the spiral wheel at one point but not bad [Music] we just moved away the coarser stuff off the top to expose the fines at the bottom it is microscopic gold defines absolutely and lots of it but that just shows your um your sluice your trauma and sluice and matting and everything is working really well to catch that kind of stuff especially in that quantity that stuff is Tiny I've had some pretty big cleanups in the past but nothing like this this has got to be like 10 times more gold than I've ever had in the pan at one time before actually I think I had 30 no 43 grams once one cleanup was 43 grams that would be my biggest and this is looking like seven or eight ounces right now time to dry it okay first weigh-in for the day is the bigger pieces [Music] two millimeter plus pieces from the week come out too 13 grams I was expecting that to be a whole lot more I thought that was more close to an ounce bad guessing on my part this time hopefully my guessing of the fine stuff isn't off by so much sure does look good though sure does look good oh that looks good and we have engrams 205. quick Tyler do your math oh I'm bad at math oh it's a mode thing is it 6.6 ounces good guess Tyler good guess and when we add in the course gold oh that is so close 6.98 ounces so close to seven foreign well that was amazing that was by far the biggest cleanup I have ever done and I absolutely loved it I even made a deal with Tyler to buy all of that gold off him because I am currently making all the Christmas special pay dirt bags and I didn't have enough of my own gold so I managed to get the gold off Tyler from this cleanup I bought it off him and it will be going into our Christmas special pay dirt bags already available on the website
