Based of the beginning of the video, where you bought all the sand, the concrete wasnt from lowes. You got the concrete from HH, and playsand from lowes. Your second sluice was the concrete, then the final sluice from the lowes bucket was actually play sand, not the concrete you thought it was. Just thought I would point that out
Glad someone else caught that as well
Then looked like he put the rest of the quickrete from HH into the bucket with the Sakrete from Lowe’s. May have just not been paying good attention but prettt sure he did. Nevertheless cool video!
He totally messed up this experience by making the concrete mistake!😢
But how when he poured in each bag in each bucket?
@@ashleysouthernsassThe concrete was from home hardware and he poured it in in the white bucket if you watch the beginning of the video
I ran my highbanker at a gravel pit couple years ago and found .1g per yard, I ran 5 yards and got half a gram. That gravel pit has added a sluice to their operation and they are finding enough gold to pay for wages.
That's what I want to do at my plant
And I bet no raises were given out at all. My job just added a $80,000 contract, and no raises were given at all.
@THChunter0121 how is your boss supposed to buy a new car if he keeps giving you more money?
@@richconroy5559 great point. 😂
Or a boat or helicopter or space ship😂😂
If the sand is dry, you could drill a small hole in the bottom of the bucket and put it onto of the sluice and it should slowly auto feed itself.
That way for the next video you can quickly run 10 bags through the sluice 😃
The hero we needed
Fine gold can float if not wet down first
He don't need that when the video is faked.
@@KyleKingProspectingyou just repeated what was said in the video
You could call it an AUrglass
Pauly, I tracked where the sand that my local big box store had came from. It took a call to the store manager, and in a day he was back to me. My sand came from Vancouver WA. where they mine and bag it at. It was quite nice of him to research this for me. And yes, there is gold in it. My local sand quarries did not have more than a few specks in their sand. I still have a few to check out though.
Vancouver is where they get the sand or that's where your store is? I'm in Vancouver WA and go to Home Depot regularly.
Repent and trust in Jesus. He's the only way. We deserve Hell because we've sinned. Lied, lusted stolen, etc. But God sent his son to die on the cross and rise out of the grave. We can receive forgiveness from Jesus. Repent and put your trust in him.

What was the Council of Nicea?
Did he
@@gryphon37Of what?.o.o man no loe like nj for real idk legit what that is if it is a place or how it is pronounced either lmao.
Would be fun to know, based on those 4 bags how many bags of sand you need to wash the gold out to be able to buy a bag of sand with gold ^^
good business question. Can you sustainably buy sand with it, is there excess?
@hexisplus9104 you could also sell the sand cheaper after you have some bulk
@@TheRealButters_Ocheaper? That's waterfall filtered sand 😆
the answer to it being sustainable on the gold alone is no.... but if you make youtube videos and have a decent amount of veiwers the answer is yes... gold alone = loss / gold + you tube is profit (when any thing involving gold or other precious minerals has reached youtube this is the case... its like stocks and bonds in way... they sell you on the idea that its something you should lose your ass on trying... if any claim is profitable they aint telling/showing no one)
For me it was more about the fun thought experiment. It's obvious that it will never be sustainable only on gold. Other wise the plants packing / filtering the sand would do it already.
Okay Pauly this episode is freaking awesome
Thanks for the spoiler! I wasn't sure which waynit would go! 😊
Meats swollen
Brought some bagged sand from my nursery store years ago. Opened it and left it open and kind of forgot about it for a bit. A few weeks later I noticed a few glittery flecks with some little orange gemstones with it, probably garnets in a little natural depression in the sand. I think they were gold flakes, pickers you’d call them. Didn’t save them because a squirrel dug in the bag later and scattered them. The sand came from a quarry in Wisconsin, probably washed down from Canada by glaciers during the Ice Age…
I remember about 25-30 years ago in southern Oregon, a road repair project got delayed because the local quarry had forgot to screen the fresh crushed rock for gold yet.
On the curve on Muldoon in Anchorage Alaska they supposedly found gold and the road workers were more interested in looking for gold than building the road. My old neighbor worked on the road there.
@@Darkdakota1 crazy, ive walked down and driven down muldoon from tudor more times than i can count lol
How on earth did you fail to realize you mixed the Lowe's sand with the HH concrete? It was literally an entirely different color!
Thank you Pauly and gang for giving me a laugh and entertaining me with all your antics and surprising me with finding gold in play sand lol, who would have thought. Stay safe.
Don't message that fake pioneer pauly guy he doesn't have a checkmark and is trying to scam you.
@@etchatails Cheers I already reported it and I can spot these aholes a mile away lol.
Watched your brother from down under do the same test. I'm guessing he was watching you channel. Glad you stepped it up a bit. Keep it weird the world needs more people like you. Peace
"... and use the machine, for FREE, and Andy's place here." Look at Andy's face just then LMAO! 10:08
Well it's not free though. They are wearing out a battery vs. using a 12 volt power supply to make sure that people can see the solution is portable so more people want to buy this. It's just a cost of advertising vs. free?
You should pan it out, dry the sand, return it, and replace it with new bags. Rinse and repeat until you're a billionaire.
I purchased 3 bags of play sand at my local hardware store for $9 and got $10 in gold.
You still lost money! You gotta add cost of sand then other expenses especially gas to go get it bring it back gas to run your banker electricity cost then any other then you add in your time you/they're losing alot more money then you think
@@kaleb2133 He never claimed he did

@GeorgiaGrowGuy I never said he was captain obvious simply stating facts don't get so butt hurt from a simple message I'm sure it hurts more then enough from your boyfriend

This was a great fun video! Much love from Vancouver Island (Nanaimo). This video has reignited my interest for panning and metal detecting.
Hey Pauly. You dumped that bag from the hardware store into the lowe's bucket. For what it is worth, you contaminated your test by doing that.
Now sort out the sand and do it again and keep them separate this time!😂
Why is everybody saying thay lol -- The Lowes sand (which was the cement mix) actually came in a bag that was bigger than the other bags. I just added what was left over in the Lowes cement into its bucket where its other sand was!
@@PioneerPaulythe cement sand was from the oddball hardware store not Lowe's. You had a white bucket when dumping the Quickcreete into it.
Nevertheless, great video as usual.
Crap. Haha my apologies, just rewatched 😅🥴
I was coming to say the same thing. Lol!
hahahaha got em! @@arrowheadlee
Hey Pauly, I was thinking that if you were to run that Lowe's concrete sand through a sifter or something like that before you try to run in the sluice, then maybe you can separate the concrete mix from the sand and then run it. This should allow you to wet the materials down before you put it into the sluice. Don't know if it will make a difference, but was just wondering if it would. Stay safe and happy hunting. Oh by the way I am going to go get some sand from my home Depot and Lowe's here in Georgia, USA and see if it holds anything. You have spark my interest in trying it here. I will let you know what I come up with.
I’ve been a huge fan of your wisenheimer self for a very very long time. You always make me giggle and my inner child appreciates you!
Hey Pauly ive been watching for almost 2 years now and you got me into gold prospecting and is now one of my favorite outside thing/activity to do now but i dont anything fancy i only have a sluice but im saving up money to try to get a metal detector so wish best of luck to you
Good stuff Pauly! Love your videos! The footage was great, so great work!
I had a friend who worked at a pavement, sand and gravel plant, he told me they take out at least 3 million in gold every year, that was 25 years ago. I guess it was a big secret back then.
Great video, and I'm glad that you three got to play in the sand. But now it's time for you guys to get back to the river where you were pulling out gold from the dried crevice area, and get back to work and get some big chunky gold!
17:39 Oh you cheeky dog, you 😂 thank you for keeping that bit in for those of us with a bit of twisted humor.
I did a similar test this past winter from sand at a local landscape company. Got like 5 micro specs from a bucket. Buuut they gave me the sand for free so does that make me rich?! 😂
Is gold really worth it to buy currently? In terms of the short term considering taxes and overall cost of upfront purchase then trying to resell when I actually need the liquidity, is physical or gold stocks more worth the cost ? Because it seems to be when people speak of gold their not being specific to the short term or Long term approach to justifying the purchase. Let me know your thoughts , thanks anyone.
Only worth it for your long long term investment, short term a guaranteed loss. It's all manipulated and so is Mike bias on gold because that's his business. Always keep that in perspective.
Gold is often seen as a safe-haven asset that can protect against inflation and economic uncertainty. But like any investment, it carries risks. To determine if gold is the right investment option for you, an investment advisor can help you weigh the potential benefits and risks of investing in gold. They can also help you create a well-diversified portfolio that includes gold as part of a broader investment strategy. An investment advisor can help you decide how much of your portfolio should be allocated to gold and select other investments that can complement your gold holdings.
@@TomD226 This is exactly how i wish to get my finances coordinated ahead of retirement. Can I get access to your advisor?
@lowcostfresh2266 In fact, I'm not sure whether I'm permitted to say this, but I'd suggest searching for Laurel Dell Sroufe as she gained a lot of attention in 2020. She is both my coach and the manager of my portfolio.
@@TomD226 Thank you for this tip. It was easy to find your coach. Did my due diligence on her before scheduling a phone call with her. She seems proficient considering her résumé.
That was a very cool experiment. Thanks for sharing. Good stuff.
Pauly , huge fan of you here.
You make me wanna go gold prospecting here in my home state.
You should try the tube of sand. It's use to add weight to things, like in bed of pickup for winter weight. Anyhow it's less refined than play sand
It would be interesting to find some of the material that the sand is screened from.
I'm already hunting for that special spot! So many ideas 😅
@@PioneerPauly It is certainly sold as a different class of gravel. Maybe find a local gravel road project where they are spreading fresh gravel and pinch a bucket....
@@PioneerPaulythere's a pit near the weight scale in parksville that supplies this sand
Didn't you do this already? The first bag of Home Depot sand that I ran through a sluice produced enough gold to entice me to do more. I also tried a bag from Menards. Now I have a bunch of sand.
Neighbors cats will like it. Or build a patio.
Awesome to see Andy...love the fact these boys are on my island.
Hey Pauly I'd love to show you a gold spot just north of nanaimo!!
Taking the home depot sand video to the next level! - I think we need a Georgia edition.
I do know sand is the most mined resource. I wash rocks and sand for work. Not for gold mining though. But I do clean out our sand screw after big runs and do find gold everytime. We're in Minnesota so it's not much but it's gold!!
This is very cool! I'm now questioning if there is any gold in the sand on my property as that is what a majority of the area is comprised of. I live in the New Madrid area and thought the sand blows might contain something. I'll do a little more research, see about taking some samples, and post any updates I may find, even if nothing is found.
To lol
It surprised me how many pieces you guys got out of those bags of sand. Thanks for sharing 👍.
The punch at 4:50 got me 😂 was the most random thing and it was the best part for me. Subscribed 🤙🏽🔥
Love this!!! Thank you for another great video and I really hope you follow up with the quarry(s)!! Also, any video collaboration with Andy & Bailey we all know it's going to be good for laughs
Best video in the world
Best video
Haha! Wow, that one piece in the first run was actually pretty impressive! Today I learned "the best indicator of black sand, is black sand!" Good times!
this is the best video in existence I love it you’re the absolute best PAULY keep it up!
Haha cheers! 🎉😅
Its always good to see another Pauly out there.
Try calling around and see if you can find black sand.
Finding gold in play sand, priceless! Finding out you coated your friends sluice with concrete, hilarious! For every thing else there’s “B roll”!😂😂😂😂🔥
I’ve something’s special for you 💬✌️.
Mate love the video and you ,please do the video of trying to find the quarries I'm intrigued now. we don't have this in England so this is fantastic fun for me.keep it up pauly
By far the most entertaining gold prospecting video I've seen so far🎉
Lowes was the sand and HH bucket was the concrete. 😬 I'm scared to see what happens 😳 😶🌫️
The garnet's in Southwest N.H. Brooks creeks and river's are pretty insane... I would love to see you come sniping at some of our great spots.!!! I know some good ones my friend.😁👍
If anyone could find the candy,... you can.!!! 💯
I like how you talk to the register I do that too. I usually tell it to stop yelling at me because they have the volume so loud at the Home Depot I go to. It's next to Sun City which is a senior community I presume that's why they have the volume up so loud.🤔
Pauly, I found you or should I say I remembered you. A couple years ago my roommate and I were subscriber's. My roommate died and I was shot out onto the street but not for long. I call the high desert of Oregon home. Out of the blue I remembered your channel. Glad to see your still at it. Love your luck and love your off the wall humor. Good luck brother.
I have an un-opened bag of the same HD sand. Guess I'm going to have to dig out my clean-up sluice and try it. Fun video.
If you could, report back!
@@Mohojo Might be a while. Working on the laser engraver today.
Pauly getting on his t pose. I have heard that if you get the unwashed sand instead of play sand you get better results but I haven't tried it to see.
9:44 You guys are so funny 😄 So much blacksand! This was exciting! Let’s goo :D
Great times indeed fam. Keep on having fun getting that Au and living the dream. Gold Squad Out 🤠

Through my research, I have found that most natural sand deposits carry what is called, Glacial gold. Gold that has been deposited by glaciers. Not worth the trouble to mine, but it is there.
Glacial gold has great nuggets too! New England is proof! Agreed!
Great video. It's probably doubtful but I wonder what could be found in some of the different pea gravels too just a thought lol.
I'm sure fine gold would be in there somewhere or even nuggets? Haha
That is really wild! Who would've thought there was gold in that commercial sand? Wild!! Great video!!
AHA! Pauly has been getting my gold that I've been hiding in the bags of sand! What am I to do? Looks like I've got to bring all the sand home, sluice it, and then hide it in other sand bags at an unheard of store. I just don't have enough room here to store the sand.... Tee hee! I'm glad you did another video to show that there can be gold in sand from a store! Quite surprised at the nice garnets, too! Thanks Pauly! You and Andy are quite a comical pair, too! Blessings from Alabama ❤️
😁👋👍👍👏👏💕🙏🏻
It may not have been enough gold to make you. Or to pay for the gas used to pick up the buckets and sand. But you did entertain us for 22 minutes 😂 So thank you very much.
If I can entertain, it was worth it! 🙏
@@PioneerPauly thank you Pauly. I really enjoy the time that I spend watching you. You always make me smile and laugh. I am a palliative care patient and I'm not able to leave the house except for hospital and specialist appointments I just really enjoy those 20 minutes or however long the show is. Keep it up Pauly, you're so much fun.
All three buckets together are worth about $270 at todays market prices for anyone who was wondering.
Right. Missed the most important details FFS.
I know the buckets are getting expensive but what about the gold? On a more serious note. Black sand can contain platinum group metals. But most people just toss it instead of processing it.
@@lrmackmcbride7498How would you process black sand for platinum metals?
@@Madamjonibee start with magnetic separation. Then heat to break down any oxides. Magnetic separation again. That should reduce most of the volume. Treat with nitric acid and use copper to precipitate the dissolved metals. That gives you silver and lead and anything else made soluble. The sand can then be treated as a catalytic converter core would be.
Hi...my son was 311 india....salute to you!
I love it Pauly! Great job.
Perfect time for kids bedtime 😊
I was watching a man yesterday, he is a geologist that pans for gold. And he was saying people often miss gold that can’t be seen with with no assistance of a jewelers loop. Maybe get a healers loop and you’ll possibly find more gold. If you didn’t already know this? Now I’ll finish watching the video. So far it’s a fun video. Thanks for posting.
EDIT:that geologist also used “jet dry” (for dishwashers) to help with the process off mining fine gold.
Good idea that is ,,the propagating sand sold here in NZ is labeled river sand as that's best for propagating & a lot of our rivers were loaded with gold ,well worth checking i think .
The big un
So excited to watch 😊
what if you could automate the sand going into the sluice with a tilt mechanism maybe
I was thinking of setting it up where it feeds it automatically too.. Perhaps the next project for the sand series! 😁🤔
Vibrating hopper of some sort @@PioneerPauly
I live in Victoria near Pauly and the boys so I decided to try the sand I bought awhile ago. I scooped it out of my son’s sand box and I found HUGE NUGGETS of cat poop. 🤷♂️
🤣
Hey pauly, good work mate, It's been done down here in Oz and yes there is fine pieces of Gold in West Australian sand purchased from Hardware stores👍 Cheers Kev
I sent you a Email Pauly👍
Hell yes Pauly, great video comparison and fun to watch. Always enjoy your editing like a pro and great commentary. All the best! Enjoy your time here in the U.S. right now!
Was the camera shaking or the pan 😅
The most surprising part was seeing that lizard. Aren’t you in Canada?
Yessir! They just started showing up a few years ago 🦎
After you run the sand and remove the mat best way to retrieve gold is with a non ferrous magnet quick and easy
picks up gold lead and glass also McDonald nuggets - other than the humor we panned in Colorado found lots of black sand
although i have retried objects that were non ferrous with silicone or adhesive on a stick it worked
That was awesome! Thanks you Pauly for the experiment!
Thanks you for being a fan of our man Pauly.!!! 😁👍 See what I did there...😉
You two are absolutely my favorite. You threatened to go do other stuff like under water basket weaving.
Yeah
So some things i noticed, First the one he thinks has concrete in it was actually the one they got from HH not Lowes, plus Quickrete is just the name brand, as far as I know paver jointer sand is still just sand, no concrete in it. Which is why they had no issues with it setting up on them. Also, the play sand he got from Home Depot was ALSO Quikrete brand (I work for a Lowes in the US and my store sells that one too) But HIS Lowes sells Sakrete brand play sand, so when he got to the Lowes bucket what he actually had at the end was from mainly Sakrete brand Play Sand, and a little Quickrete brand Paver Sand... and the HH bucket that was ALL paver sand had plenty of black sand ect, but the Lowes only had a little.... so I guess we can deduce from that is the Quickrete brand had more than the Sakrete brand. And probably the Lowe bucket blacksand was from the HH paver jointer sand.... so it's not really the store you by it as, its more about which Brand you by, so for gold hunting it looks like stick with Quickrete
I’ve something’s special for you 💬✌️
wow!
I love the debate on how to run the concrete....after having run the concrete already 🤣
This was so much fun
I said it on the last video and I will say it again. Sand is sold regionally. The quickrete sand he is buying in canda is going to be different than the quickrete sand I can buy in oklahoma and the sand someone buys in california is going to be different from the sand in florida its very regional. So do not expect you sand to be like this if you live in a region with no gold.
vampire teeth
Dude don’t be rude
It would be cool to see you do beach sand.
That’s just amazing brother! ✨👀
I've got 2 bags of tube sand in the bed of my work truck. The bags are busted open. I bought 2 new bags to replace the damaged tubes. Now you got me thinking!!!
Love that AIGP sluice made in Edmonton, 😊 with dream mats. I just got the high banker version
That's awesome I now know where to get my paydirt in Nebraska for the winter.
Pauly... Seriously you crack me up bro.
😂😂
Laugh if you want, but after I am done cleaning up what gold I find in the river, I set aside the material (it's not much, since I already used a magnet to remove much of what I don't need to check), I put the material in a black pan, with a desk lamp and strong magnifying glass and go looking which I am listening to music or, oh, one of your video's.
And I make it a game to find the smallest piece of gold I can find. I think fly poop is larger. One groove on my fingerprint is wider.
But here is the thing I think is cool, gold looks like NOTHING else, it shines from any angle. If you look close, you won't get it confused with anything.
And yes, I still pick it up with one of those sharp pointed tweezers and I drop it into the vile to join their bigger buddies.
that was really fun to watch, thanks chums
WELLLLLLL I can tell you this pauly I’m a concrete Forman and pour concrete almost everyday and one day I thought why not check the very last bit that comes out of the truck that should be the heavy stuff. So I crapes the chutes into a wheelbarrow and then rinsed it for about 40 min😳 to get all the grey crappy concrete out of it and panned it out….. yup there was gold🤩 and the most interesting part of this is even when they fill their drum on the concrete truck and wash it out THEY CANT GET ALL THE HEAVIES OUT. So all the gold from all the loads they take every day in theory keeps piling up in the bottom of the drum….. how much is in each truck🤔🤩 I’d really like to find out but climbing inside one of those isn’t easy and if no one knows your there and they start the truck and drive of your dead lol anyway I ramble great comparison video thanks for sharing see you on the next one👍🏼👊🏼
Helow Pauly I love your videos so much so make sure to make more videos like these❤❤❤😊
great stuff. this is great thanks. i'm at home with covid watchig this. you guys look after each other, i'm nearly 60 and have no mates due to people riping me off all my life
Great vid guys!
Could you have screened the concrete mix first to separate the sand? Would be super dusty tho.
should find on sand bags where it comes from yeah love ya content tho Pauly can wait til you back here in New Zealand
Totally absorbing video. Cheers fellas.
Pauli, what sluice box/head unit are using? I looked up the Adventure brand you have listed but don’t see that one listed or anything like it. The link is only for the Dream Mat. Have a more direct link you could provide? Thanks!!
I somewhere read about, that each year around a thousand metric tons of gold are being built in concrete around the world. And pauly just kind of proved it. 😅
Great video..as always!
I subscribed this video!! Amazing video n will be watching lots more
It's that new Home Depot _Signature Series_ Pioneer Pauly Playsand Paydirt!
I love looking for Gold with Teen Wolf....always wondered what one does when he's not raiding chicken coops and howling at the moon.
My lowes has a "tube sand" meant to mix with cement as well, it's cheaper than play sand and less processed, mightveant to see if yours has it and try that?
The choppers on this guy are impressive
I remember from High school one of my Science/Math teachers said something that stuck with me.
Our City is in a river Valley, so over Millions of years, the River has changed shape, flooded, dried up, and moved like every other river on Earth. So statistically speaking, if you took all of the soil from bedrock to surface from any one of our yards and filtered it out, you have a 100% chance of finding gold. I mean... that's true of most places but it made me think different about potential anywhere.
