Canadian gold mining at its finest with @ANDYTHRAXX
Join me on an exciting adventure as I visit @ANDYTHRAXX placer gold mine on the beautiful Vancouver Island in Canada. In this informative video, Andy takes us behind the scenes and shares the intricate details of his gold mining operation, which includes the use of heavy machinery like excavators and a state-of-the-art washplant.
Watch closely as we witness the mining process in action, from excavating the rich paydirt to feeding it through the washplant, where the valuable gold is separated from the surrounding material. The entire process is a mesmerizing blend of technology and nature's treasures.
But the real excitement comes at the end when we perform the ultimate test – the gold clean-up. Together, we collect the precious gold concentrates and eagerly calculate the results. Did our two hours of hard work yield enough gold to make this venture worthwhile? The answer might surprise you.
Join us in the discussion about whether Vancouver Island holds enough gold to sustain a small-scale placer mining operation.
