3/4 OUNCE OF GOLD IN 6 HOURS: Keene 6" Super Max Dredge in Alaska
Рет қаралды 89,271
3 жыл бұрынTrying out Keene's 6" Super Max dredge where we pulled 3/4 ounce of GOLD in just 6 hours on the Fortymile River in Alaska!
#FindingGold #GoldDredging #GoldRush
We wandered back up to the mighty Fortymile Mining District with Gold Fever Prospecting and spent a day on Keene's 6" Super Max dredge. It did not disappoint. This is Keene's next generation of gold dredges that are designed for the recovery of super fine gold. The exact model we ran is the Super Max Sump Dredge and we would not have had this great of a capture rate with a standard 6" dredge. If you thought about having a small scale commercial operation for gold dredging, check this out!!!
Remember, there are many different tools to include dredges to help you capture that magnificent GOLD. Remember to think about the material you are running and the type of gold you are getting when choosing the right equipment for YOU!
We were not paid by Gold Fever Prospecting or Keene Engineering.

I’m glad you’re enjoying your Supermax and it’s working out so well for you on the 40 mile. I designed that Dredge specifically for the ultra fine gold in the Philippines. The first prototype had a single 20 inch box in the center but we found two boxes on the sides was far easier to clean out. So Mark and Patrick Keene put the two box design in production. Keep up the good work 👍

Just wondering how much for that whole setup what time of the year were y'all there I don't know I'm not a professional but the way it looked like maybe you were losing a little gold in that middle sluice box I didn't see no pan at the end of it but like I said I'm no professional nice gold wish I was there 👌👍
@WanderingBuffalos 3 жыл бұрын
From Keenes site the dredge starts at $10k and depends on the type of engines, side boxes and of course the main sluice. This one had the sump that catches all the fine material and sends it to the two side boxes with less water flow to capture as much gold as possible. There will always be a loss so you make sure you move as much material as possible. We did test pan our tailings a few times and only found a few stray specks.
@MidwestDavesGoldProspecting 3 жыл бұрын
Nice video. Sweet Dredge. How long can you run this dredge without cleaning it up ?
@WanderingBuffalos 3 жыл бұрын
I think it depends. With all the fine gold up there I would still want to clean the dredge out at the end of every day but not multiple times as day. The flow control on the side boxes really allows material to settle in the mats if it runs to the end of the main box and down into the sump.

I don't know about that "water detection" machines, but I have been in the mineral and water detection business for about 30 years now and so far I have tested a lot of machines, only to find they did not work and the money spent went down the drain. My water Dowsing is a hundred% accurate and I do it from a photograph off of Google earth images. Of course I find other things also, like precious-metals, graves, crude-oil. I can scan five to ten square miles from a Google Earth image in about a day and mark the water or mineral locations, large and small. I also discriminate the type of element, for example I can tell any one of the six platinum group metals apart from one another. And I can detect all of the stable elements on the chart of elements. I have done over 300 blind tests to this affect. I am not at all limited on depth detection. I did an oil deposit that was 6800 feet deep. Many of my blind teste were private people giving me permission to scan their houses and marking where their values were.
