I am honored to know Jeff, and I can tell you that I truthfully know very few people as knowledgeable as he is regarding geology, and prospecting. One of my customers went on his last outing and came back with a handful of nuggets. He was using a metal detector, and had a wonderful informative and profitable time. Become a premium member, Jeff deserves our support considering the education he provides to everyone via his fantastic videos.

Iv gotta give you alot of credit, because theres not many people on youtube teaching things like this as good as you do. You keep it interesting which makes a persons brain a sponge to learn more than usual. I have personally been on a random education hunt, iv just embarked on fireworks manufacture and chemistry, now im learning this, stuff they dont teach in schools, an the history involved is very intriguing. But also the history is very important, and important that its never forgotten. Many have died in mines making what we today call slave change but that was good money back then. Schools are more worried about confusing children on their sexual preferences, not stuff like this.

I agree the stamp mill should be in a museum and restored to working order as an educational tool. Just an idea but maybe could raise a fund to buy it and move to to a place where some volunteers could restore it. I'd like to see it demonstrated. Jeff -- so thanks for the educational information its really instructional and I always wanted to be a geologist, maybe not specifically a gold miner but I do really like the explanations and why its important.
