Forum Member Question To Me - Video Included

[Rob Allison]

Hello All,

   A forum member sent me this question after I posted one of my videos.  To answer his question, years ago I started to make a video series, but only ended up getting like one video up about "What to Look for in the Field."  This video might help some to ID handstacking, which is very common in areas that have been placered mined.  You might need to turn the volume up a tiny bit.  

Rob:  Nice job with the latest video.  As a beginner I am always interested in learning more about identifying favorable terrain.  Do you have any video or still shots of what the general area looked like so that I might learn how to identify favorable terrain and what indicators you used to spot a potential area?  Thanks for any help you provide.

That was a nice video. It’s too bad you never finished your series these are the types of things that I would like to watch and learn more.

Hey Bud,

   I'm going to consider doing some more, but I'm so darn limited on free time.  Thanks for watching.

Very nice video.  Thanks for sharing and I too would thoroughly enjoy more educational videos of this nature.

There are several places in Missouri that people had done the same thing when mining Silver.

Nice video and I will have to bookmark it for reference.

Rob, great video. Stuff like this is what my books are all about. Looking for the clues, piecing together these clues and developing a picture of what was done years ago by the old timers. I believe learning as many of the clues is absolutely crucial to finding gold consistently with a detector. Keep up your awesome videos. Maybe when I get down to Arizona this next fall we can team up for some of these videos for all of our fellow nugget hunters.

Hey Reese,

   Thanks.  Ya, agree you have great books, for anyone that don't own the Nugget Shooter's Guide, it's worth the money.  Great info, tons of color pictures! 

Anyone looking for Reese's great book, we have them in stock.
