Description: GOLD & GEM LOCATIONS: TREASURESITES.COM Gold Prospecting! How to find gold in rivers and streams. Diamonds: click "More From This User" to get that "how to" film. This film is about gold. Gold diving. Use of the hookah rig to find gold. Gold flakes, nuggets, and platinum nuggets are shown. Gold and platinum are 15-19 times heavier than other streambed materials and concentrate in low pressure areas and cracks that run across rivers and streams. You look for a crack on the bank, and follow it out until you meet the "gold line" and there you suck it out with your dredge. Gold will be on the outside edge of a river gravel bar, at the head of the bar (large gold but usually beneath big boulders), and at the tail end of a bar (vast concentrations due to river bars forming in the shape of an airfoil and sucking fine gold to the tail end) but be small to microscopic at the tail end. Gold will travel down a river or stream in a line, usually off center of the high pressure water. Gold will settle behind a boulder. A good place to fish, can also be an excellent place to find gold. "Black sand" is iron ore that can be readilly identified in gravel bars and is a ready indicator that gold is probably present. The most effective and economical way for the average person to find paying concentrations of gold in a river or stream is with a simple ($80) sluice that you shovel into and the riffles retain gold, platinum, gems and anything heavy for you. Gold can be found up high on the old river channels and recovered with metal detectors, a gold wheel, a highbanker, or simply by identifying the material, shoveling it in your truck and working it out later in a wheel, or your simple stream sluice. The states which have gold in vast quantities are: Maine, Vermont, Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, Colorado, Wyoming, New Mexico, Nevada, Arizona, California, Idaho, Washington, Montana, and Oregon. The rest have gold as well, some in very good concentrations. All have gems of some kind that a sluice will seperate and hold. Good luck finding the gold of your dreams!

2bornot2b1984 ::: Favorites You need to make sure to get an actual pickup that goes beneath your strings or notes will not trigger properly. Thanks again for the neat videos. 07-08-28 00:46:15 __________________________________________________
2bornot2b1984 ::: Favorites Thanks for the info. Have you ever tried a guitar synth? you would love it. It is very expressive. Choirs, strings, synths, sound effects all triggered by the guitar. It spurs tremendous creativity for sparse arrangements which would be great for limited mobility. 07-08-28 00:44:00 __________________________________________________
flagold ::: Favorites Guitar: usually simply through a Roland Cube 60 amp (+MicroCube if voice recording - voice in Micro). Sometimes with Apple Garageband/Logic > external speakers > recorded via MiniDVD tape or laid in tracks direct. Logic has every synth conceivable. 07-08-28 00:10:20 __________________________________________________
flagold ::: Favorites Yes, there is gold, though I have not looked for it over there. One of the reasons gold was not heavilly developed is FDR outlawed ownership of it (nothing to compete with paper money). Gold was outlawed for almost 40 years. One of the best books I've ever seen on gold formation is "Follow The Drywashers" by Jim Straight, 19225 Mesas Street, Rialto Ca, 92377 -- I would highly recommend that if looking for soils. Synths: the keyboards via Apple Computer (Logic). 07-08-28 00:05:04 __________________________________________________
2bornot2b1984 ::: Favorites Hi, Gold and guitar synths: I am wondering why western washington does not have much gold. I thought volcanic mountain ranges would produce a lot of gold. Is there gold in these mountains but doesn't reach streams because it is so heavily forested, and the geology is not exposed and weathered? Have you ever done any nugget hunting on dry land and what kind of geolical features produce surface ore? Any in western washington? And what kind of guitar synth do you use, I have a gr-1.

flagold ::: Favorites Punch in "sluicing" into the search engine and a lot of material comes out (some quite good video on sluicing). #5 of the Diamond Hunter videos shows me sluicing. Tip: if you have a metal detector (specifically a Whites MXT or GMT), you can use that to trace the black sands (iron ore) and generally where you have the heavy concentrations of that will be your gold (or just ahead of it) in a river bar (inside bends of the river). 07-08-13 23:47:55 __________________________________________________
walshy093 ::: Favorites hi love the vids...i live in victoria, australia, and will be going prospecting soon, do you have any tips) (river panning, sluicing) Thanks... 07-08-13 23:28:20 __________________________________________________
flagold ::: Favorites I hear you. All I do is use the mpg rate for a CD to make the youtube video. That cuts it down to 15 frames per sec (from 29) and still gives CD sound. If you hit the full screen it does lose quite a bit, but for what I'm doing OK. I agree the dimensions make no sense - if you look at some of my other movies, I'm throwing them in wide -- makes no difference. Full quality stuff is at my website (click my name and look to the left) 07-08-09 21:11:44 __________________________________________________
dty2dty2 ::: Favorites Thank you: would you mind confirmimg the mpg file properties e.g. bit rate, frame rate, dimensions: Youtube says use 320x240 but then displays larger than that! 07-08-09 20:39:54 __________________________________________________
