Figured I would show off my new Highbanker. It worked amazing but no gold was found. I have included a few nature pics as well.
I am going to make a complete set up video this coming weekend and post it here on Steemit if anyone is interested.
Thanks you for your support and comments. Follow and Upvote if you like this content. Thanks
Thanks for those very informative pics. How much did all that equipment cost? Have you been to other places where it really works and you had results?

Well the Highbanker costs roughly $500.00 + $50.00 hoses + $15.00 fittings + $300.00 pump an $50.00 for a prospecting license. So far it has no yielded much gold but I have found 8 diamonds so far. In a couple of weeks I will be taking it into the mountains to find some serious gold. Lol.

THANKS for your clear answer. What are your diamonds worth? Do you think you can switch to diamonds?

Well some of them are only worth a few bucks but others are worth a fair bit I would figure. As for switching I prefer to find gold over diamonds but anything is better than nothing. Lol

I will try to post one this weekend of it working. I have purchased several new items for it and more hose so it will be interesting to see how it works now! I will keep you updated.

Thats a really cool rig, We were actually thinking of trying something similar when we worked in Northern Ontario. Do you have plans for that or are they commercial available. PS where is North without giving away any secrets.

Well North is Northern Alberta, Canada. I do have plans and hopefully next summer I want to have a fairly large operation going if possible. It's much easier to prospect in British Columbia right now and a lot more gold there as well. Alberta has a lot of flour Gold which makes it harder to find and harder to get any weight. Followed

Nice equipment... Now, all you need it the right place to place it...
Is it run off a portable generator...??? It looks like it would need that
extra power...

Hi, it runs off a 1" transfer pump. It takes about half a gallon of gas per 4 hours or run time and pumps at 45 gallons a minute. It is a pretty sweet setup. How's things going for you?

Now that I looked a little closer, it appears the motor and pump are a single unit... I did see some mining, first hand and even panned myself along the North Fork of the Yuba River Area of Downieville... Lots of Gold came out of that area during the California Gold Rush... I actually bought a nice sized gold nugget from someone who at the time, found over 300,000 worth of gold under a Big Rock in the Yuba River... It's about 7mmX14mmX4mm's... Gold was pretty cheap back then... I wish I would have bought one of the bigger ones...

I would love to find a nugget that size! In my part of the world it is mostly flour gold and it would take a long time to get any amount of it. But I do it for the adventure and for the exercise. And being outside and studying nature is never a bad thing at all. Unless you get eaten by a bear! Lol
