    One of the largest gold producer in the U.S. is the Kennecott Copper mine. That’s why you see a lot of indicators south of the Great Salt Lake.

    Gold in Maine and New Hampshire?

  7. Ruby Duma on January 25, 2023 at 4:48 am

    Utah has a lot of fine gold and is the #1 money maker in the state. I have a friend who gets gold out of the gutter in Ogden from the road base that comes from a gravel pit at the bottom of a canyon that contains gold. There’s a good book by Alan Chenworth called Gold Panning in Utah that goes into further detail. Last year when I camped at the Utah Gold Club claim I had a UFO hover above my campsite at night on three different occasions. I’m going there next week but won’t be camping unfortunately.

    Yeah Texas!

    New to this,
    I live in Utah and want to thank you for the lesson today.
    I have subscribed and look forward to more.

    Except for you didn’t say anything about the Uinta mountains. And there is known Spanish gold mines in the area. And placer gold in the rivers.

  11. Jim Taylor on January 25, 2023 at 4:53 am

    I was told some years ago that there was gold out by Wendover on the Utah side and all so have seen spots that where there could of been some valcano remains in different spots in the state of my travels

  12. iVET-Ansolini on January 25, 2023 at 4:56 am

    Can you do kansas if there is any?

  13. margaret catalano on January 25, 2023 at 4:58 am

    I enjoy all your videos.

  14. MULEYZ on January 25, 2023 at 5:00 am

    Is there any gold spots on the North Slope of Uinta mountains to look for. Like between Evanston to Manilla ?

  15. chuckkv on January 25, 2023 at 5:01 am

    Utah is one of the largest gold producers in the country, BUT, it’s largely due to one mine, which happens to be one of the largest open pit copper mines in the world, and the gold is simply a byproduct of it’s scale. Most the rest of it’s gold, including the Bingham copper mine gold, is very fine and largely in sulphides.

    great vid Jess

  17. PinkCosmoCrafts on January 25, 2023 at 5:03 am

    This is so cool! Thanks for the knowledge, always hear of people finding all these amazing gemstones here but we never find anything like that when we’re out in the mountains. Learned alot about the land layout, thank you!

  18. Raymond Moore on January 25, 2023 at 5:03 am

    Nevada

  19. ModernProspector on January 25, 2023 at 5:04 am

    I’m more interested in the kimberlitic diatremes at Moses Rock and Mule Ear. Unfortunately they’re on the reservation and unable to be mined by anyone but Navajos

  20. Tooter Plumber on January 25, 2023 at 5:05 am

    Texas oh heck yeah. git-er-dun. LOL

  21. Treasure Exploration and Research on January 25, 2023 at 5:07 am

    That area you discuss around 15min is the famous Henry Mountains and the location of the Lost Josephine, Spanish Mine. There is an underground city in the area that is known to the local Piautes. They will not tell you where it is because their ancestors lived and slaved in the mines and were held captive in the city. We found the entrance but it has collapsed. Above the city there are still plenty of active mines. Modern miners just have not found the main vein yet. There is a South African company mining several of the mines on top now.

  22. Jordan Martin on January 25, 2023 at 5:07 am

    What about the lost rhodes mine that cursed all the gold in the uinta basin??

  23. Taylor St. Sauvage Brandon on January 25, 2023 at 5:08 am

    Jess, what about…Wyoming? Gold and…diamonds there.

  24. TCU on January 25, 2023 at 5:09 am

    so up in south weber i helped dig a fire pit in a friends backyard and our hand literally sparkled with fine gold all the house were build on top of it.

  25. margaret catalano on January 25, 2023 at 5:10 am

    Yes Texas

  26. cks on January 25, 2023 at 5:11 am

    Living in Utah, there are quite a few fault lines and I have long been curious if even ancient fault lines if they make for good or worth prospecting for gold?

  27. brayden anderson on January 25, 2023 at 5:13 am

    Do you know much about down south like sevier county and that area I have stumbled across mines and use to pan and help my grand father find gold when I was young but since his passing I havent really done anything down there

  28. Roseanne Carr Atkinson on January 25, 2023 at 5:15 am

    Also there are some gold mines above Centerville and Farmington, maybe Bountiful too.

  29. Maile McDevitt on January 25, 2023 at 5:15 am

    I was told by my grandma that Spanish hid gold on Bonneville salt flats. Some where

  30. Al Murry on January 25, 2023 at 5:19 am

    Please look at eastern utah

    What a boutique Wyoming.

  32. TheYammerHammer on January 25, 2023 at 5:19 am

    The claim that you are looking at southeast of wendover, nv. Is a little old Ghost town called Gold Hill. One person actually lives there and is mining it

  33. Life of Prince on January 25, 2023 at 5:19 am

    When you’re addressing the red desert and you’re talking about the permitter what are you exactly talking about are you talking about the edge where the uplift is happening or the perimeter of the entire Area you marked. What do you mean edge vertical edge of that uplift

  34. jjd jj on January 25, 2023 at 5:23 am

    Can you do a vid on colorado/wyoming?

  35. vodorod A on January 25, 2023 at 5:23 am

    Hello Jess. your voice is a bit like a musician johnny cash)

  36. Ruby Duma on January 25, 2023 at 5:26 am

    The wasatch mountain range that runs vertically through Utah is the steepest mountain range in North America and also has the only mountain range in the US that runs horizontally known as the uinta mountains. Utah is definitely unique.

  37. Jon C on January 25, 2023 at 5:26 am

    Is there a possibility to find gold in a old Utah cole mine.

  38. Donald Covington on January 25, 2023 at 5:28 am

    thanks for Utah how about Texas

  39. Rebecca Everett on January 25, 2023 at 5:28 am

    Yes, more Utah please!!

  40. Lou Herrera on January 25, 2023 at 5:28 am

    I live in utah and i was wondering what site you used for the gold map locations.

  41. roger davies on January 25, 2023 at 5:31 am

    That transverse range is called the Unita Mountains and is the only transverse range in the North American Rocky Range
    Trees down Utah has in the past suffered from a huge pine beetle infestation cause for trees being down
    Be very careful wandering around the Salt Flats as they are called because they are part of the Utah Test and Training Range. It will be clearly marked and everything outside the boundary should have been dealt with. FYI At the Utah Nevada town of Wendover there is a WWII airbase where the crews for the atomic bomb raids trained

  42. Parley K on January 25, 2023 at 5:32 am

    Pretty sweet oscilloscope you’ve got in that desk. I just happen to live in Utah and found this video. I’m just an electronic hobbyist but it’s still neat to see the prospecting geology around the state of Utah

  43. Roy Brown on January 25, 2023 at 5:33 am

    Texas an okla

  44. Melanie Engle on January 25, 2023 at 5:33 am

    Thank you so much this was so helpful. I’ve had the hardest time trying to find it here in Utah. WOW Thanks again

  45. Prospector Jess on January 25, 2023 at 5:36 am

    You guys rock! You make all the effort to put these videos together worth it. See https://SourdoughMiner.com/GDU/ for details on how I can help you find more gold.

  46. Mobyone Colt on January 25, 2023 at 5:39 am

    What happened to AZ

  47. Abraham Lincoln on January 25, 2023 at 5:39 am

    Most of the salt flats of the great salt lake are military testing grounds now.

  48. Sharon Kasper on January 25, 2023 at 5:41 am

    Arizona please

  49. Knowles Mine Co. on January 25, 2023 at 5:41 am

    Kimberly mtn and the uintas are the best i have found being a utah native and looking for gold those have shown the most color.

  50. Roseanne Carr Atkinson on January 25, 2023 at 5:41 am

    Our Great Salt Lake has shrank soo much! I also believe where man has changed the way the water drains. It goes to holding ponds throughout the cities. It doesn’t go to the GSL. Besides we have been very dry.
