I'll be back! For sure this deposit will need a full day of gold pannin. As it is showing to be a very rich deposit of gold. Check out the video of me honing in on the big deposit.

Hi Dan, I'm as old and fractured as the bedrock you are standing on, in this video, but I cannot thank you enough for taking us along on each of your fantastic action-packed adventures. I was thinking about buying those bags of material and pan for gold here at home. I am sure I would have a ball panning for gold like you do. You have certainly more than earned my subscription to your fabulous videos.

Hi Dan! New subscriber here! So glad the algorithm led me to this video and ultimately your channel! Extremely informative, educational and entertaining! Can't be more wholesome than that these days. Honestly, I enjoyed your "Geological Fact of the Day" and the way you explained why and how you did what you did and you also got into the science/physics/hydrology of how the gold gets distributed upon a claim such as this one along the Fraser River. Another awesome aspect of this video was your easy to understand explanation of flood, bank and bedrock gold. Anyways just wanted to express my thanks and let you know you have gained another avid follower! Also, it is evident to me and all of your followers and subscribers that you Dan, have a pure heart of gold and with that sentiment we are all Glad to hear of your clean bill of health!

Dan I gotta thank you for getting me started on my gold journey. I've realized after getting out a dozen or so times now that every time I get a little better, find a little more gold, know where to look and where to pass up but I am always surprised at what I learn everyday. It's an equal amount of research and field work! We have a lot of old gold mines in the hills out here (Oroville, WA) I'm thinking about trying out some dry panning maybe... "there's a chill in the air only miners can feel and there are ghosts in the tunnels the company sealed."

What would make water "surge" on a river like this? Near the end where Dan mentioned it swamped his boot I paid attention to it doing that. Not something I'm used to seeing in my rivers! Only "surge" of water I've ever encountered was a flash flood haha.

What would the gold rush guys have seen in a pan? Or were they even panning as opposed to big sluices and such. As an aside, I recall hearing that Chinese people were observed hauling out "rocks" and sending them back to China, which puzzled the white guys. Turns out the "rocks" were jade :D I've watched your channel for some time and will continue to do so. The Fraser has a ton of interesting stories, so if you ever get tired of geology, I'm sure you could change hats for a day and regale us with historical facts and such. Cheers from Vancouver!
