Smashed This Boulder & Found CHUNKY Gold!

Описание: Have you ever seen a giant boulder in wash and wondered… How much chunky gold is hiding under it, but it is too big to move.
Today I will show you how to move those big rocks out of the way in seconds ...legally and dig into the trapped pay layer beneath it to find out how much placer Gold is hiding under it.

This is one of the most overlooked placer gold “hotspots” because most people can’t (or won’t) move the rock. I’ll show you the exact method I use, including:

✅ Why big boulders trap gold (and where to dig around them)
✅ The Rule of Thirds for drilling + placement (so you don’t waste energy)
✅ How to read joints/fractures so the rock splits the way you want
✅ Safety basics (fly rock awareness + setup tips)
✅ Running material through the Poor Man’s Sluice Box + final pan results

And the best part? We didn’t just get flour gold… we pulled CHUNKY pieces from a small sample — which tells you what could be sitting deeper on false bedrock.
