I know it's not very entertaining, but it's important before setting up the Highbanker.

    I like how you made a whole bunch of tapes today and kept them in their own little self contained topics instead of a bunch of editing and put all in one tape with much of the footage left on the cutting room floor

    That way, if someone didn't want to watch everything, they could pick & choose

    @@MurrayRiversGoldAdventures Exactly. Also , I didn't realize , but some people watch on their phone and fuck holding the phone for half an hour or more. Can always have a break between tapes.

    Well, you never know, definitely garnets in the creek.

    that is a strange deposit sitting there , confused me as to how they worked it and with what , that piece of Quartz looked interesting and vuggy , i would have taken a test pan from top/middle and especially the bottom of those mounds , you found a few specs at the top, i'm thinking if there was any flood gold in that hole , it's now gonna be at the bottom of that pile , if you find a section close to there that's worth running the high banker, then run that material through also after a cleanup , to see what was in it if anything , thanks for sharing Victor.

    I have found piles like that before, but they were out of the creek not yet run. This one will keep me guessing for a while.

    I would guess material was run through a trommel. But there would be a pile of half inch plus nearby. Probably run by the boys who moved on from CampGround 2 at Slaty

    There's no pile of larger rocks. Unless they were working up, the creek was all screened down & then ran in a power sluice

    Strange piles of dirt on creeks the mind boggles why they are there

    Definitely different. I did think someone may have screened it to process later.
