Only been panning for about 7 months and I have to say your videos have taught me a lot about reading a creek. I took your advice Saturday, crossed the creek where I wouldn’t have normally gone and had my biggest spec count ever. Keep the videos coming because they’re teaching me how to be better at this great hobby. Can’t wait to try more new spots now.

I have a friend in California that owns a hydraulic pit mine and a few others and he's going to teach me some of the history that happened there in California back in the 1800s when they were running and operating these hydraulic mines he is a hard rock minor and has been for about 48 years he has tons of knowledge that I can't wait to sit and learn.🤟👍

I would love to be able to dig up in the banks on the claim that I work but I'm not allowed we're only allowed to dig out of the stream only and it sucks that I've been stuck there but it's the only claim open for like another month unless I was to drive another 6 hours lol but the good news is the ice is breaking up The Creeks are a little flooded at the moment but in another week I should be able to get out and it should be warm enough that I can test pan all day. 🤟👍

Thanks Chris. My areas are more like the 2nd bank erosion example. I think the fact that it just looks like wet mud has thrown me off. There's loads of Brooks and rivers with 18th century bridges and stuff but I'm fixated on finding bedrock. I think that i need to let it go and concentrate on what's in front of me. I find loads of ironstone in large sizes too so I'll follow the heavies like you advised me earlier.👍🏻

@@VoGusProspecting I hated school. It wasn't until I was in my late twenties and early thirties I realised that NO class is boring, NO subject is boring. Just the average teacher is absolutely abysmal at their job. I can sit through hours of Lindybeige talking about tanks, or medieval history, but in five minutes of my math teacher prattling my eyes were glazed over and I was drawing dicks in sharpie on my mates school bag or getting into trouble in other ways. Mostly to do with drawing dicks on things. In fact, high school was quite homoerotic, there's a LOT of dick drawings to be drawn. In my defence profane things aren't going to draw themselves. After a decade in dead end law enforcement gigs I ended up putting myself through law school and getting a bunch of other letters after my name. I disregarded the teachers entirely and focused solely on the written materials and powered through it. Learning is great. Just our teachers tended to be shit.

@@jakefranklin269 It's so true. Bad teachers are why so many of us leave the education system earlier than we ought to. University was way better compared to high school. People are there to learn, not there to fsck around. Well. Once. There was a sweet spot around the 2000's. I wouldn't recommend it now though, universities have become a laughing stock. When a bachelors in Afro-Lesbian Dance Theory is held as equal to a Combined Bachelor of Laws / Communication Science degree like my undergrad in the work force you know that there's something sorely wrong in the world. And even then that doesn't guarantee anything; I know more people working dead end jobs, retail, labourers, or even just unemployed who have bachelors and masters in subjects that make me wince in pain to think of.

Hey Chris, I used to Teach adults you have a real talent for explaining difficult concepts, especially adding your drawing, as someone who is Dyslexic and has ADHD this helps me a lot. I think you could do really well if you wrote a beginners + gold prospecting course, remember in the Information Age people want to learn things, and knowledge based businesses are doing extremely well and are growing. If you need some positive reinforcement just msg me, I have C-PTSD too so I know how hard it is to get things done sometimes. Just wanted to let you know how good a Teacher you are, I know I would buy a course of you after seeing that short video. Thanks and Take care mate
