When copper ore is soaked in water for a long time, we cannot distinguish them, but when dried, they turn green. I have successfully smelted copper, but the amount of copper in the ore is very small, I will have to be more patient. in mining to find large quantities for me to use at work.!

free mill copper will be rare it is usually not in metallic form. i wonder what ore and minerals you do have there... iron copper i suspect some gold and silver but you will not see it in the ore . you still need the water wheel to power a stampmill and a blower to make this somewhat efficient. thanks for the videos

Yes, the work is difficult and rewarding, I was more hoping that you would find large particles or even nuggets. I once saw a video of guys like you who found ore on a river, and it also seems to me that some of the stones you have are large, that they were reddish, similar to non-copper castings. they just had to be broken, maybe there was some copper in there

Congratulations on managing to extract it! If you want to have fewer stones in your sluice and improve its efficiency, you should flatten the reliefs more. The idea is to take advantage of the fact that copper is heavier than most stones, but if the reliefs of the filter are very high they do not allow the light rocks to separate from the copper. Thanks for posting Duong I wish yoy good healt and you family ❤

Doung. I want to congratulate you on your new found knowledge to collect precious metals in your creek. I do have a few more tips for you to better collect the metals and find more value in more items in the creek. -*rocks* that are small but heavier than usual might be a gem stone that could be cut for value. bring it back home to look at it's color under a light so we can see the type gem for its value. -You should also create a *mining pan* to pan for precious material. You can either use a clay to make a flat-bottom pan with ridges. Or you can make the same thing out of a strong tree's heart wood. (the dark center of the tree). As long as it doesn't have any cracks it could be used to concentrate the sand. -You can also create an *Iron Pick axe*. A pick axe is an axe with points that bend down to lift rocks out of the dirt that are hard to lift be other garden tools. -Also, a sluice box is normally meant to concentrate the gravel you make to a find black sand. You collect that sand that you found into a bucket. Use that concentrated sand to sift with the mining pan that you make. -It's about time you learn about *prospecting*. Prospecting is when you go along the river up and down to search for higher concentration of your metals. People normally sluice for 2 to 3 hours in a single spot to find a valuable concentration. You keep track of the sluice and panning of concentrate amount. This will determine your yield/spot ratio. -*How do you search for the most valuable spot?* ---Look for where rivers bend. Where there is a build up of gravel on a bend is where you can be sure to find metal deposits. ---Look for sedimentary rocks poking out of the ground. When you find a rock that looks like a bunch of layers or fingers pressing out of the ground, it means that the there is a top layer of precious metals that could have been exposed next to the sedimentary layer or the (granite layer). Just like in the sluice, the layers arrange themselves in the ground.

What I came to realize is that this is more of an "off the grid in a poor country" channel than rather than "stone age technique only" channel. You can see he sometimes has electricity and lights - although you can tell it's very much improvised. That's the thing here, he's using what he can but also can't ignore the things he has access too from the village. For example: he often trades/barters/buys to purchase the lumber you see. His wife has another channel where she grows and sells vegetables. I didn't see a rule book where they *had* to stick with 100% their own stuff. He calls his channel primitive because it largely is. I imagine he takes his youtube add money and re-invests it back into his property (that pond) using local labor - which in my mind is fair because he actually lives there. It is all still quite primitive.

Sự chờ đợi thực sự rất dài (nếu tính đến 20 phút... 🤨), vì vậy tôi rất vui vì đã ăn trưa. Dương, món sushi phiên bản Việt Nam mà Hương giới thiệu hôm qua (thịt bằm trong bí ngòi, còn gọi là cà tím, rồi chiên) đã khiến tôi ĐÓI đến mức thắc mắc tại sao BẠN không có mặt để thưởng thức! The waiting is indeed long (if one considers 20 minutes long... 🤨), so I am glad to have eaten lunch. Duong, the Vietnamese version of sushi that Huong showed us yesterday (minced meat in zuchini, also called eggplant, and then fried) had made me SO HUNGRY that I wondered why YOU were not there to enjoy it!🤔

I know some folks are trying to claim the shiny orange metallic version of copper that Duong has been finding is "fake," but there are a number of rivers here in Washington State where you can find both copper ore (green rocks) AND native copper (the shiny metal stuff). One of them was on the American River, just off Highway 410 on the east side of Mt. Rainier, where my extended family had a cabin where we held our family reunions. My cousins and I would go wading in the river, and a couple of times we found native copper "nuggets" with their weird lobes and flattish curves. However cool it looked, we were told that we couldn't take any of it away as it wasn't ours, and we weren't allowed to do any mining. Not even just plucking it out of the river by hand, because we didn't have the mineral rights for the property, and didn't have any prospecting rights. (It also helped that copper was literally cheap back then, back when they were still making it into pennies, so it just wasn't worth it to prospect against regulations & mineral rights.) Vietnam's regulations for such things are going to be different from those of the USA. In fact, Duong may actually have the mineral rights to his property; my great-uncle did not because his property was rented at the time, not owned. Later on, he did manage to buy that property, but by then us kids (and the older folks) were just in the habit of respecting nature and leaving most everything where we found it. (Cool-looking fallen branches where worms had eaten into the sapwood under the bark, forming weird carved "runes," that was another matter, lol. We'd find those sticks and pretend we had found a fancy wizard staff...but in the end we always left those sticks behind when it came time to go home, letting them stay in the same general forest where they were originally found.) These days, most riverbed prospecting in my state is done for gold, not copper, but it has to be done in specific parts of the riverbed in specific ways, in order to avoid damaging the river banks (erosion can become a serious issue for our region), and to avoid damaging salmon spawning nests (so no prospecting by digging up anything that's under the water).

You'd likely get a better result if you were to cover that ore with some of your Lime as a flux. A bit more careful sorting of the ore from the rocks and sand would be good too. The video quality wasn't clear enough for me to judge, but your ore may have been Cuprite... you may look up stream a bit and see if you find any caves or outcroppings with a reddish crystal, which is another form Cuprite can take. I am uncertain of any other reddish copper ores. You may grab what you suspect are copper ores, isolate them and roast them in your lime kiln. That may drive off some sulfides and o2 and make it easier to smelt into copper metal.

Where you find copper you will also find gold ...at least here in Rainforest Congo...Kepp it up my brother from another mother in the mountains of Vietnam rainforest

Duong, I had an idea for if you repair the water wheel. You can make simple gears using discs of wood, then making holes around the edge and inserting wooden pegs. This would allow you to change the speed it turns things it powers. You could also use gears to power your pottery wheel with the water wheel. Also you could benefit from making a pump-drill, which is very simple to build and would make drilling holes much easier. Another useful thing to build might be a lathe. You can build a simple one called a pole lathe, or potentially make a lathe powered by the water wheel.

Duong, Its good to see a video of you at primitive skills. I like your channel because you make and build amazing things.

I do have a suggestion. Lower oxygen levels in the crucible should create better copper. So you mught try a closed or sealed crucible next time. Just remember natural copper can contain arsenic! So open the crucible carefully and let it outgas before you remove the slag. I remember reading somewhere that very early copper smelting used iron as a flux since it attracts impurities comon in copper. Maybe an iron powder would help? As for the actual gathering process then only thing i could think of was a fine screen or some kind. Not sure how fine a mesh you could make with natural fibers but... you could try to brute fore the process. Maybe make multiple larger screens then stack them each with a different alignment compared to the others to create a primitive filter screen for small particulates?

Love your videos 🤟

The larger bits of copper found in the river are probably from the jacketed bullets fired during the war. This is a fool's errand.

You could try and build a water powered oscillating rocker box: en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rocker_box It's one of the tools used in placer mining (mining of river bed deposits): en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Placer_mining It's only a few pieces of wood away from what you already use here, and it could take away some of the manual labor.

Thanks for showing us how to mine copper, but its not worth the trouble unless there are rich deposits there.

That's a lot of work for little result. You need to find an area of higher yield. One thing is to look for is cracks in rock and you can mine the material in the cracks. These act like natural filters. You can pan this material and see what you find, working your way up the river until you hopefully find a source. Keep an eye on quartz in the rocks too.

Your videos are fasinating. I am a metal worker in Germany and seeing the stuff i work with in its raw form is awesome
