I love when you show us the natural state of Silver, you have taught me so much about metals, minerals and rocks.

This is what I dream of doing in my retirement. Digging for rocks, being outside, playing in the water. Love it. 🥰

Love the little laugh when you find something beautiful or cool... awesome video.. thanks again ..

So very good to see you again sir, as ever a really nice video showing some beautiful specimens

Love all the areas you share with all of us.

Me and my dog like watching you the best because of you and your dog. I think my golden retriever likes your dog. Haha. We are saving up to buy a van so we can do the same thing you and your dog do. We appreciate the awesome videos and information so other people, and dogs, can do what you do. I always liked walking my dogs in the woods all of my life. But you and your dog help alot of people to get outside and do something. Besides sitting on the couch and getting alot of health problems. Thanks again and keep up the great work.

Daisy is such a relaxed dog. Great finds meMiner!

Dendritic view looking up. 🌳🍃

The crushing process or whatever the way to extract the silver from stone would be a treat to learn...nice video..

Nicest silver finds that I have ever seen! Thanks for sharing meMiner!

That was funny the aluminum rock. Another informative and entertaining video Sir.

Dendritic view looking up. Excellent.

Incredible finds!!!

I've always loved your videos.. took time off and came back. Your editing flow is amazing. I will always come back. ❤️

That was damn cool, and that much high grade silver ore is nothing to scoff at either! Daisy is so fun to watch cutting through the water like a bog ole dog otter! : D

💪😎👍 thanks for sharing the adventure always fun watching the channel great

You found some nice ones. Enjoyed the episode ✌

Very nice Me! Love seeing those silver nuggets! ✌️PT

Fantastic!

What a fun day. Great pieces 👍💪

Yup. That's what Beau would do! Lol So many amazing specimens in one vid! Keep up the great work, and good health to you.

Great video. Nice finds

Woah I like that! Nice find Daisy had fun

Congratulations!

7:10 is when my jaw dropped first! What a beautiful piece!

Wow !! A silver lightning slab specimen !!!! Daisy looks good today. The second rock you sliced is awesome !! I Like !! Daisy swimming with a comet trail of dust behind her in the water... It makes one wonder what it would be possible to find walking in a drift with a metal detecter. Thank you for an awesome video !!!!

Wow. Just wow!

Very interesting 👍 thanks for another great video. Vivian

Oh, MeMiner! That has got to be one of my FAVORITE of your videos (second only to the one where you searched UNDER a tree♥️)! My A.D.D. appreciated the editing, too! Find a rock and dissolve directly into vid of the cleaned up specimen, and then right back to the hunt! 👌 Well done! And that first one you cut in half and then revealed! ♥️ The silver branching throughout both halves looked like a pair of silver lungs! Really just the coolest stones, great narration, and smart editing - You hit this one out of the park!! ⚾️

That is so cool of just how much thet missed and left for you lol. Love the way the silver looks after being cot like that its so cool looking thanks for anouther great video.

Silver has always been my favourite metal to wear. If im abroad on vacation i never buy any silver juwelry unless it has the Ag (from the Latin argentum number stamp on. Nice cuttings, especially the large one. I love the wind blowing in the leaves. Very nice video :)

I really appreciate the cut stones. The native silver, that way, is just really gorgeous and a lot more interesting than silverware. Thank you sir, enjoyed the video as always.

Now your just rubbing it in !!! Congrats on the silver finds

Hope you are being heart healthy and happy to see you out and about there again. GL & HH.

I love the rock toss...love the sounds...but I always worry Daisy will go after it! I’m sure you take precautions😁

Great video, you do awesome work! Millions and millions of tons of mine dumps. Under a fallen tree is an awesome place to hunt, nice find. Not COBALT but COBALTITE.

Fun hunting & finding TY 💞🕊️💞

Killer stuff as usual. 👍🏼🦅🇺🇸

Nice finds. Thanks for sharing the hunt and finds. Good luck, happy hunting and take care.

Hello Daisy, the dear Silver-Hunting Lab - she does a good job, doesn't she? And very nice editing meMiner, I know it takes a lot of work but it is cool to see the clean cut rock right after you find it! Thank you - glad you're out and about enjoying the old mines, as I guess they didn't get it all - did they? And aren't trees good at keeping secrets?! Keep well & happy fossicking... 👍🦘🐾⛏😎

great vid very well produced,be great to see a big silver bar cast out of that lot.......

Great to see you and daisy out on another adventure living in the now, long may the adventures continue. Love the way you edit so we see the cut rocks in same episode! Would you consider trading some UK flourite for some Canadian silver ore? Thanks for sharing brother

Great vid!! Thanks so much!. 🍁🍁

Purdy nuggets you have there. Daisy's making me wanna get a dog again! Great vidjeo meMiner!!

Awesome adventure cool area sweet sweet score of silver now daisy won’t even register of the metal detector she is a a rare gem swim of course you sure got some sweet pieces awesome wow on the piece you sliced Thank you for adventure

Enjoyed your video, keep hunting!

I have just found your chnl and are loving all your finds. I can see I have a lot of catching up to do tho. I am a long time rock hound from MN, with ice creampails full of rocks, many agates, and any rock I find appealing and a large heart-shaped stone from Lake Superior. I would say that was a superior find..tee hee. Take it easy, i'll stay tuned.

Wow meMinner my dear friends. Great video...💜

Great video and beautiful scenery! How do you extract the silver from the rock? Do you have a home smelter?

Some of those nuggets were awsome, love that dog

Beau would go insane seeing that shaft and he would be in there as fast as you could say - hi ho silver , I know , lol, I just had to say that. There were so many nice pieces you pulled out of that new spot and yes " I like".

Greig, You miner, and minimal digging required. You find a dirty one, there's water over here, wash the dirt off. Daisy wanders over, sniff, sniff, lap, lap, lap, a quick glance up, Yep dad, thats water. What an amazing haul you had, go steady though, all that weight over rough ground, you can always stash some away and return later after rensting, i've done things like that for years, in my younger days I liberated some huge cuts of old electric pylon earthing rods that were solid copper, they were being held captive by a scrap metal dealer who was waiting for the best ransom money, I gave them to a gentleman who recycled metal and he rewarded me handsomly for my noble gesture of liberation. I will of course deny any involvement in the above liberation. The big rock you couldn't cut, that would make some outstanding cabs or slabs. Loved the dendritic discription, very clever. You out did yourself again my friend. Stay safe.

Hey...! That was awesome.....! Who'd of thought there would be almost 15 lbs of Silver under a downed tree....? There's one person I know that would think that, meMiner..! Experienced in Rock Hounding backed up by Daisy who keeps a close eye on him while he's busy seeking the Silver raw ore and the streaks, and the veins.. and the specks..! =)

Hiya Greg, DUDE! That's a awesome video, beautiful SILVER. When you cleaned them all up, I find it amazing how they look, lighting patterns and you could drill a hole into it and wear them on a necklace or something. Hey when you threw that rock in the mine, I think you hit the devil on the head with one of them, I always love going on those adventures with ya, so to speak. Daisy is doing pretty good I see, she's so sweet. I hope you have a awesome day and have a blessed one too.

‘I like.’ Once again meMiner finds treasure, this time under a tree. And, being in his neck of the woods, hi Ty. Furthermore thanks to your inspiration have in a two barrel tumbler, flint, chert and jasper. I’ve been saving material to try and knap some points. I wonder if they will be okay too polish together?

nice finds

Ok, I'm dying to know. Do you sell these as specimens, cab them, or smelt the silver out? Thanks

awesome amount of silver thanks

Hi hope you’re ok when you have time it would be awesome if when you do some tumbling if you could put a couple of smaller pieces of the silver rocks in it would be interesting to see how they turn out thanks for the awesome video cheers Phil

Silver is around $206 USD per pound. in High Quality. You pulled about 14.5lbs in Rough Quality. I bet you have at least $2,600 dollars from that trip alone if you grind them, and melt the powder in a High Temp Crucible. And Sell them as Pure Ingots or Blocks.

You should definitely tumble those nuggets and see if the pink cobalt and silver turn out nice. The calcite will be gone. Full 4 stage tumble. The pink shows nice in the slices!

You still running your flat lap?? Some of these look like good candidates! Nice work!

Time Stamp 10:56 Rusty Green JADE, HUGE Almost BOTTOM LEFT.

Would you ever do tours/ lessons on detecting silver?

how would that calcite cut and polish? would it keep its pink/ red color? great video

If your any thing like myself i would love to see you go to cerro gordo one day

In the 1959 movie titled The Hanging Tree, a glory hole of gold was found under a tree stump.

Nice finds :)

On another note, as for the silver in matrix specimens, I know the calcite will disolve in acid. What happens to the rock parts? Do they stay intact or will they become brittle to expose more of the silver? tnx

Really gorgeous Silvah nuggies my friend! Congratulations!! Do you sell specimens on a site?

Hi, meMiner, you need a lather patch on your jeans. Thank you for this fine video!

Sweet! You done any Nickel hunting?

Seriously we need a tumbled silver video! I know you have before with different things. But full 4 stage, you can lessen the days and then pan the grit. Lol

I know that's not where I go detecting and hounding but man it looks so much the same. Must be just across the lake hehe.

Sweet as...✌️😎

What Detector are you using?

Fantastic! It'd be interesting to know what a crushed cubic foot of that ore would be worth. If it had 1% silver in it, and the gathered ore averaged 150 pounds per cubic foot of crushed ore, then it would contain 1.5 pounds of silver. At $25.48 per troy ounce (12 t.o. per troy pound), a cubic foot would be worth $305. Then there's the potential value of cobalt, currently $15.50 per pound. Or other elements/minerals possibly associated. With gold, one speck visible under a 10x handlens, is roughly correlated with 1 ounce per ton, if memory serves. Silver being 56% of the weight of gold, would probably be .56 ounces per ton, based on one visible speck. And the rocks you've found have visible STREAKS. By the way, a word for fallen trees can be 'windthrown trees' and their bases, 'rootwads'. I learned that when younger, in a job mapping soils.

perhaps I missed when you mentioned the name of this site ..and/or closest town. Thanx

At the 8 minute mark Silver rings up a 6 on the Equinox. 11, 12 and 24 in others...Good to know.

Hey, great videos. I’ve been watching you for quite awhile. This video in particular you say you brought out 14+ lbs... Of that, how much do you think is silver? And could you show us how to bring this down to pure silver?

You must have a hundred pounds of silver on the deck.

Hello Greg. May I ask where you purchased your digger? Thanks Blair

And because of you, I flock to the ole tree that has falleen..lol..Also am I a girly girl for I love the cobalt too?..it being pink and all..take care.. peace!

As I near retirement I have taken an interest in mining and geology. I wish I had paid more attention in my high school geology class. I have looked in on a number of KZfaqrs who explore abandoned mines, and while interesting I don't hear a lot about real geology or a description of the minerals. Maybe you're the guy to follow?

Can these be ground down to a powder, and then melted in a large crucible, into Ingots.?

How do you handle the cobalt? How radioactive is it in matrix like that?

Wrangler jeans should use you in a commercial polishing rocks ....lol or Tide .

I'm curious about the smelting, too. Is that something you do with these pieces or do you sell them as-is to let others smelt? (I know nothing about this but as someone who's played his share of computer games where you do things like that, it makes me wonder if you're at home crafting your own weapons. HA!)

Now we know what’s beneath one ☝️ Awesome

I like ! I had thought Cobalt was in demand for batteries. Maybe its cheaper in Africa at low wages or no pollution controls. Not sure of the quantity there ?

I like the eBay notification tone

💥🤯

Does Daisy like duck jerky?

I bet I have something you would be interested in bartering, Gloves!! What size do you wear? Leather or, I am thinking reinforced fabric for dexterity? Let me know. I am due a vacation so if I can get across the boarder, we can meet in Cobalt! :o)

I'm Getting Gold Fever Here! 🤤🥵🤠😯😲

At 4:30 in are you going to dissolve the calcite away ?

If I was a adult had a car and had money for gas I would definitely check out cobalt Ontario

2 Thumbs Up!

Awesome content, at the 20 min mark you mentioned a sample and said "talking about character" Would you consider selling that sample?

I can show you a few old mines about 30 mins west of Cobalt if you like
