Idaho Gold Dredging
Рет қаралды 41,497
2 жыл бұрынI had a chance to meet up with Adventures of a Lifetime. In this video, we ran his 5" Keene suction dredge. Tested out the Dry Magnetic Separator on the cons and cleaned up the gold.
Sorry about the shaky footage in advance.
Get that blue magnetite separator at:

Really awesome video. Great drone footage and really good underwater shots. Looks like a Keene 5" or 6" dredge. Nice to watch the seperator do its thing in the field. I will share this video with my miner friends. Great clean up.😎⛏⛏🔥🔥
@MiningMagnets 2 жыл бұрын
Thanks Chuck! Ive had the drone for a long time just never really get the courage to use it. Yeah a 5" Keene. The field testing of the seperator has been very helpful. I was able to change the model in the last few weeks. Idaho Magnetite is very course and uniform. A lot thicker than the Cape D and AZ stuff I've been playing with.

Yeah it depends on the kind of water flow we have but that river can rip on high flow years. In that case you would have to start all over lol. Hopefully the gold will become replenished.
