Thanks Doug. The link above worked just fine.
I thought Brother was going to sky-dive to his mine in his thongs for a bit
That is certainly rugged country!
I'll need to get my Geiger Counter out of the glove box when next up there

 

[Jaros]

That would be close to the top of the Great Dividing Range wouldn't it?

 

[Brother]

Flew from Laura out to the Palmer river, Maytown area goldfields. I popped in the link, as the thingy did not work? Ill try now?


Yep there ya go it works now?

 

[Brother]

Gday all, hope yas are all good? I have been flat out updating/upgrading my good old washplant Goldie Rocks, with the help of Gary from the Golden Spear Mine we are working hard to get every thing ready for this seasons big start, with some much needed improvements to plant and equipment!

I could not get Freddy Dodge to come over for a mine rescue! So we will have to do the "Freddy" ourselves!

Before....

During...

After....

Awesome hay!
Loads more to do before its ready to wash. Will be a few quick vids on the upgrades as we go, before our mining season starts!

Hope your dams and aquifers fill nicely during the wet.
A few Jonnie Walker and Colas going down nicely?
Would love to visit you and Gary in May :Y:

 

[Davent]

Great set up :money:

 

[Nirvanadirt]

Looks AWESOME!! :Y: looking forward to seeing your videos after you get fired up again and good luck for your upcoming effort :Y:

 

[Moneybox]

I'd love to be preparing a wet plant instead of a dryblower but the only time we see water is like right now. It's raining simply because I spray painted this afternoon. All the rain is going to do is wet the soil just enough to upset the dryblowing process. There won't even b a puddle left the morning after the rain has gone.

 

[Brother]

Yep thats the way it is Moneybox, hahaha. Keeps us outa trouble anyway. Hope you have an awesome season mate!

 

[Nirvanadirt]

Can you use any kind of recirculating system moneybox?
There's also a great thread about the jackwinder but now that I was going to post a link I see you're well aware of it. Super idea and would be a great unit to test around areas that the brothers are looking to dig?? I might be wrong but from what I've read it would be a valuable tool to people doing small scale mining?!

 

[Brother]

Here is the vid of the start of the upgrades, can not wait to get started washing paydirt.



Its all good fun

We did try to get Freddy Dodge out here but he's staying in the US for now!

 

[Moneybox]

Cant wait..Me too. I want to see the paydirt.

 

[Brother]

Few more bits done, almost there now!
Spray bar, legs and riffles done.

[goody2shoes]

Are you going to paint them?

 

[BigWave]

Looking great guys! Can't wait to see it in operation :Y:
Will it require a lot more water than before, and will you have the water available?

 

[Brother]

Thanks guys, yea its getting new paint and will have a good amount of water for this to run hard for 3 or more months. :Y:

 

[Brother]

An update for the washplant, a water test run, then some old springs get a new life followed by a good test run of a small amount of old paydirt and a heap of old tailing's! Got a good few grams for our trouble but looking forward to running the good stuff! And new toys to play with, arrived just in time!
Working and testing on the Golden Spear Mine. The washplant is almost ready, just a few little things and tests then paint before the big move back to Christmas Mine!
