Жыл бұрын

Part 2 of Jason's and my adventure tot he blue chip mine, in part one we collect 300+ lbs of gold bearing quartz ore, from both inside and outside the mine. In this video we take it back to Jason's Crushers, and shaker table to concentrate the ore, and then smelt down the concentrate. Today's test is trying to see how much of the gold is tied up in the sulfides and how much is free milled.

Awesome that you have a friend like Jason, willing to help educate and inform! Also great that you two have so much in common, and the enthusiasm to learn anything new is contagious with both of you! I love watching both of you together! Where one is not sure, the other has some insight, and vice-versa! When neither has a clue, it heads first into finding an answer!!! Awesome video collaboration!

Hey Dan & Jason, Any day with Dan, Jason and Gold is a great day ! I really enjoy being able to tag along via these videos. I am fascinated with the heavy equipment as well as the process of smelting. Thanks guys Stay Safe, Be Well Enjoy Life

@johnizitchiforalongtime Жыл бұрын

Thanks to the both of you. It is good to know that not all mines are productive, all ore taken is unique to each specimen with sulfides. Usually, the deeper the vein yields are higher in concentrates because of thermal intrusions. What a learning experience!
