Hello Chris, I am in Tanzania, we have started prospecting for copper in one of the region, where at the depth about 2feet deep we managed to samples which gives 5% copper purity. We also cut deep in one the area to a depth of 4meters, we took samples and the test gives 26%, 28% and 30% purity. We are excited and look forward to explore more and more! Thank you for your detailed explanation about prospecting copper ore. Stay blessed Chris

Chris. thank you for the time and effort you put into this video, great information.

Thanks for that info Chris. There's also a lot of large detectable gold nuggets associated with those copper porphyrys too!

I appreciate GREATLY that you take the TIME for multiple parts to any of your subjects and that you share your in depth expertise with various people ,,, I'm literally watching your video like a student would sit and listen in class!!! Peace and blessings to you !!!!

Lots of great information here. Great job.

I actually like mineral specimen collecting more than finding gold. Another great video Chris!

Wow! This is packed full of information. Too much information for my brain to take in.

I enjoy your every vedio on prospecting or exploration.

Thanks chris for informative videos

Once again a very educational video in which I have learned so much! Thank you!

Super good training course Chris! Interesting timing on the copper topic. I’ve recently been to a outcrop area with huge iron oxidation and some blue jasper near the surface. This site looks very similar to some of what you explained. I usually am looking for a bit of gold but yesterday I humped out two buckets of this opaque blue material. I’m gonna cut and inspect for beautiful samples to possibly give as gifts to family.. if it pans out! Thanks for enriching my brain.. again! ✌️PT

I think the video will help me in my search for some larger rock samples with malachite and azurite in it.

Copper is so cool !!!!!!

another very informative video thanks for all the info cant wait til next one

I once read about a deposit of copper way out on the eastern plains of Colorado, far far from any mountains, the rocks were sedimentary I think. It just seemed funny that threrd be any marketable type ores outside of "the mineral belt" and mountainous terrain.

Thank you so much sir. Helpful information.👍

Very inspirational Chris ! For the reasons you described, copper has a very bright future. I'm definitely going to investigate areas of open traces of copper oxides, especially mixed with limonite . I know of several places already. Also contemplating the copper mine I had a lease on years ago. Copper oxides in Dolomite of altered limestone formations. Perhaps there's a chance of an igneous zone with sulfides further below ? The old timers made several stopes, and drifts, however, the lowest level (about 150 ft.) has little values. Hummm ?

I really enjoy your videos, most informative Thank you

I've got bluish green rocks on property in South Australia, there might be uranium around here too Olympic Dam mine is to the north of us.

Valuable information Chris! So glad I found your channel!

Have you seen the video of the guy prospecting for gold in the Australian outback with a metal detector and a pick axe? At the end he displays his $1 million plus of gold nuggets laid out on a table in his RV. I think the gold was all deposited from meterorites because much of Australia is a very old continent that has not been covered by water deposits for 100's of millions of years.

Hi Chris, im in the motherboard country, sierra county to be specific and im detecting tailings piles of what I think was a ground slicing operation using the gold monster 1000. The ground is insanely hot due to volcanic mudflow deposits and the ground is littered with iron trash do you have any suggestions on dealing with these issues

Ay could you please put pt. 1, 2, and 3 in the descriptions of your series? The random youtube suggestion makes for this to be not a convenient thing.

Dug that pit on that chalcedony looking contact. Came up with copper. Funny this video posted today. Looked just like sixth example. The sulfide ore. I apologise for asking my question last time in a very stupid way. I only went five feet down. Ain't for the faint.

Is there any similarity between the black smoker pipes to the kimberlyte pipes you've described when speaking about diamond formation? Both volcanic, so...

I've discovered a new word which I won't forget. Gossan.

High Ralph. Like your vids a lot, but I would like to see more on how to avoid claim jumping. For example you have a good video on northern California claims, but how much of this is legally accessible without necessarilly belonging to a prospecting group like GPAA which I do belong to.

I had about ten questions for you Chris but after the video, surprisingly I only have two now. 1) How does leaching to the sulfide zone from the oxidation zone get past the water table ? 1b) Isn't the water table under pressure ? 2) I noticed my favorite mineral U in your IOCG chart but not the sulfide side, Where did that enter the mix, and is it a lot or just a small impurity ? I know it's 238 and non-fissile but you don't want to make dust with rocks containing it, it's still a U. isotope.

some say that if we go for electric cars in europe only, we would need all the copper extracted in the past 400years worldwide > only for the recharge stations.

I have a mine that has yielded lead, galena, torbernite and wulfenite. We are pushing through a large vein of pegmatite in a region known for having gold in those formations and believe that it sits on a vent. Could I be digging in something similar to what you are describing here? All of our quartz points tend to be stained yellow and crusted over with what we assume to be iron.

Chris, what is the deal with all of the closed placer and lode claims? Is there ever any good gold in them and were just not worked/ not paid for annually/ owner passed away --- or did people just steak claims around where some gold was found hoping to get a piece of a pie that didn't end up in their claim?

Do you know where I can get some stuff assayed?

May I ask what you think about the Garrett cti 2500 pro metal detector

Yah I see a horse and. Rider but I can't. See what his armor looks like

Ote man

And Mercury....talk to the corner....
