Knuckleheads... my favorite term for folks who can't respect the rights of others... You go, Jeff!! Love your ability to share knowledge. Geology is fascinating!

I get so excited every time you say "I wanted to show you this", because I know that what's coming next is pure information. Thanks again.

Crazy Jeff, love your videos, don't change a thing, just make more!

Jeff...! Dude, you are so awesome...! I'll never be able to say thank you enough for all of things you have taught me and I'm certain that I will continue to learn from you... When everyone else is hoarding any information which they might have on good spots to go prospecting, which is impossible to put a price tag on for us newbies, here you are sharing with all of us for free... I know that you always have a handful of Jackasses to put up with for every video you post and I have no doubt that it gets very old real quick, yet you keep on producing for all of us who share your love for the Shiny...! I appreciate everything and all that you do for us Jeff...! Keep fighting the good fight and I will always have your back my friend...! Thank you again and may your bottom always be yellow...!

Boy, this is an oldie but goodie Jeff. I'd love to know how those samples panned out!

Jeff, I REALLY enjoyed this video of yours and Slim's(as I do all of them), as there's so much to it! It's history, geology and more! One of the silly things I really like is how you and Slim sign off. "This is Jeff Williams and Sli-i-i-im..." It makes me laugh every time I hear it! The humor you two incorporate with your teaching is a style that I really can appreciate! I listen to you guys every chance I get, and ALWAYS ENJOY !!! Thank you for producing this whole series of videos! I rate it a full 10 out of 10 !!!

I have noticed that MRDS locates "Amargosa Gold Placers" as an ore body about 13 miles West/Northwest of the cabin in the video. The MRDS map locates it in the flats between the mountains (MRDS Deposit ID 10286240 if you're curious enough to look it up). But it is odd that this is such a historic mining site yet no mention in MRDS. Keep the dream alive Jeff! Thanks for sharing your knowledge.

yep we saw that too and there is nothing as far as roads out there so it might be worth a look huh.

Jeff Williams you are the best! Keep the gold fever man!

Fantastic episode, thank you for taking us along.

I learn more here in the last 3 episodes about gold and geology than watching all 7 seasons of Gold Rush! Thanks Jeff and Slim. I LOVE the craziness and education! So AWESOME!!! KZread needs more channels like this one!

Gold, I mean good Ole Jeff is effing excellently awesome !! Slim too. Up here in BC, we got some grand gold of our own . Sure do some fun lessons from ya , Jeff . Thank you for you. CHEERS !

Yes John that is so true as I have found very old maps of some 14 mines less then a mile west of the house but when I went to BLM I was informed that the mines were on the China Lake, Navel Base but I have been entertaining myself by picking up the sand in the yard and running it through a mini sluice to recover the flower gold . I would really like to get the larger stuff .

JEFF WILLIAMS, EVERYBODY LOVES YOU!!!

Sometimes I think you're just a few french fries short of a full Happy Meal, but damn if your geologic knowledge isn't super keen! I spend more time looking up and learning the terms you use than watching your videos. I learn a lot of information I thought I would never be interested in. You are doing what you intend to do - educate people.

I miss your videos Jeff! Its been a long time buddy and i think its time to get back into mining after my mining partner died from silicosis just after i met you at desert outfitters in vegas. You used to always be clear about breathing that stuff, John learned the hard way tho. Take care Jeff, cant wait to get my mining back on!!!!

Tha I you for your videos. I learn so much. My dad use to take us camping when I was young, 60s to look for gold. Now iam older I want to do it again. Thank you so much for all you do. Your the best

Great video Mr. J . Lots of Educational information. Some of us will never search for gold like you do, but is interesting to travel with you in your videos from far away and learn a few things. Great camera work by the way. Thanks for your time, we will never forget. Hi slim!!!!!!

I'm right there with you about the rantin' and ravin'. It boils my blood. I was just in Death Valley riggin' out on the high trails. Great land. Thanks for sharing the history and your humor.

In 1852 gold was selling for $10/oz, not $20. So at $2,500/ton that'd be 250 troy ounces per ton.

YES sir Jeff when I first watched your video in chloride Az.i though you had been in the sun to long, but I have had a gold mine claim in Nelson Nevada and I had to let it go because it was time to apply for a patient but I needed four cor samples and all of the people I went to said no THAY EVEAN turned down half partner ship. Keep doing your videos I try to watch them all .

Whenever im feeling down i put on a Jeff Williams video and im instantly laughing!

171,300 tons of gold (5.4816e+9 ounces) mined so far. We were born in the wrong era. People used to walk down to the river to wash up and grab an ounce nugget an then another... Those times were tough though and the price of gold was low :/ $20 per ounce back in 1850 was huge.. Stockpiled gold drove the price to $1600 and certain people are set.

Nice gold man! Thanks for all the good gold geology information. The more you can teach us greenhorns about all that the better.

I LOVE JEFF, FUN, HONEST, HARD WORKING, learn a lot!! U MAKE ME HAPPY, AND WANT TO GOOOOOLD!!

Jeff. Question. If there is gold still out there why are there no big companies mining? And how come in the video there are no people out walking around mining for fun? Just seems like if a place had gold...... people would be around. And another GREAT VIDEO! I love the history you bring. One of these days the History channel or Travel channel is going to pick you up. Just wait and see.

What an excellent balance of geology, history and touching lunacy. And you filmed in my favorite place, Death Valley! I hadn’t visited the Amargosa area and am so appreciative that you took us along with you! Truly interesting!

We are so lucky, even us that don't plan on mining gold, to have your incites on KZread. The information you supply is invaluable to those who do plan on looking for gold. You make it fun to watch, and very interesting, as well. Thank you for your unique way of video taping. And for your Buddie Slim, too!!

Another great video Jeff, you are one funny dude and very informative. I have a sense of humor much like yours, and my brother says the same thing. He now has the gold fever like me from watching your video's. Well done Man. :)

Your vids are the best I was pissed off about something before I put this one on,, it cheered me right up,, and I learn something every time I watch thanks keep it up..

one of your most enjoyable vids yet. great job love it!

one of my favorite videos from your collection. bravo

Thank you for your insight and the amazing views of the scenery. I trained for desert warfare not all that far from there. I did the training in the heart of summer. Your warning about the heat should be a lesson and respected by all. That environment is no play area for a novice. Again, I enjoy your videos and thank you. PS. Why is it Slim never helps..................

Excellent video, packed with good data and useful information. I will be prospecting a bit above that area in 6 weeks so this was a good primer. Thanks.

very interesting and educational as always. I would love to fly out there and see that site.

Incredible land. Great history.

Thanks for the history lession, and it made my day.

I love all the history and geology too. Thanks Jeff!

I love the history behind all this stuff and I completely agree with you that I can't stand people who think they're so special they can destroy the history of others just for their own enjoyment not to mention their myopic scope of reality...

GREAT SHOW JEFF GIVE IT 100+++ THANKS JEFF...

we need more ppl like jeff williams... and a lot more videos!

Thank you for sharing history and places

Jeff, you took my spot. I was going to explore those mountains when I headed back home to the desert. Maybe I'll see you there. Now I know what to look for.

Cool video, love hearing the history. Neat stuff! Thanks.

Jeff the geology of mine was fantastic but I'm still out here in the middle of desert I don't have colors like that I just have brown seeing but I love the geology and the snapshot of the gold up there that was breathtaking I loved it

Outstanding video, really great history and teaching. That gold you sussed out was so damn pretty! Wild feral gold never tampered with by the rivers!

I was wondering if you (Jeff or readers) ever heard of a treasure story about the south end of the park called Siberian Red's lost gold ledge. This is a fascinating story; it once appeared in a treasure magazine circa 1970's; I have been unable to find the full story again on the internet. It was supposed to be in the vicinity of Manly Peak. We went out there once in a scouting trip in the early 80's, in the winter. We met a hermit living on the mountainside who had once met one of the men in the story. He said he believed the story, but thought the chances of re-finding it were slim. The rich ore was supposed to look like cement-grey rock, until it was crushed up and the gold appeared.

Yes JEFF and SLIM and NEVADA JACK its about time to get a huge excavator and bulldozer and front end loader and a wash plant. This place has tons of gold just waiting to be found. Nice video.

Great Video. I would love to see you do a video on the mystery smelter in the San Bernardino National Forest. The smelter is in Rattlesnake Canyon a few miles down from the Rose Mine which was a large producing mine around which an entire town was born (which no longer exists) anyway the smelter which I stumbled across while out exploring is said to predate any white explorers or prospectors to the area. Some have speculated that it may be from the Spanish Conquistadores but no evidence has been found that i am aware to substantiate that theory. There is also a old stamp mill in the area that neither the forest service, library or BLM know about. I found it while out metal detecting and exploring. Everything is collapsed but still there so I am keeping that one to myself to preserve the site.

great cinematography you'll be a million subs in no time

Jeff, please put subtitles, we miserable of Brazil, we also want to learn from your teachings, we want to prospect, and you teach a lot. We put the video very slow and we passed the translator over, to read phrase by phrase, KZread has locked the direct translations to third world countries, here we live in the 18th century. Imperialism, and operation. So put the videos with subtitle. I'm learning a lot from those with subtitles. Congratulations on your work, God bless you.

Thanks again for another great story and video. From Yuma Az. Shaking earthquake tonight. Yikes!

There once was a man name of Slim, who was tall and lanky and quite thin. He dug him some gold while growing so old his eyebrows grow right past his brim, he said I can't see, is that a rock or a tree and fell to the ground with a thud, the gold nugs it weren't, was water and dirt with his face stuck right in the mud. signed Brickhouse, (oh! and this was posted as humor)

This was wonderful! Thanks!
