California Senate Hearing on Suction Gold Mining (USA)

G'day,

California Senate Hearing on Suction Gold Mining 4-29-2015


Published on 30 Apr 2015
Miners doing a great job of defending ourselves and our rights against overbearing government. But the bill still gets passed on, and the fight continues.....At the end of the video, all the individual miners get to stand up and oppose this bill.


I was there and I still can't believe it. Soon we will have no rights at all if the government keeps taking them away from us like this. I thought it was kinda funny that the Indians that got this whole thing started when they sued the government are actually buying dredges and using them on the land that they told the government was being hurt by dredging lol what are these idiots in Sacramento doing? Can't wait to see what happens when they piss off more than just small scale miners. This state and country is going to hell in a hand basket on a rocket ship. I think I'll move to Canada.

Hi all

www.leginfo.ca.gov/pub/15-16/bill/sen/sb_0601-0650/sb_637_cfa_20150427_162604_sen_comm.html  

At page 6 you see what theire accusations are based on.However,we all know that also if there was no mercury at all in the riverst,they would try to  find another reason to get all the small scale miners out,just like they want EVERYBODY out that tryes to at least a bit to live within and from the land,away from the "smart cities" that are planned for our future.

Some thoughts i posted about this "study" in another forum ,where i first saw it.


How good propagandist science is made to obtain a desired shocking sentence.





-A four inch dredge releases 10 percent of the annual discharge of a watershed (how big is watershed)in a DRY year..Answer;in a dry year there is just not enough waterforce to move the heavy mercury,so there is basically no mercury release in a dry year ,meaning if in the dry year 1gram of mercury is released by the watershed himself,if you move 100miligrams with your four inch you got your 10 percent.And this ten percent where ALREADY in the river.Then they don,t mention that the four inch dredge in the same time Recovered a 1000 percent of the natural release of a watershed in DRY year.

Countermath;(i don,t fill in the correct numbers,i don,t know them,just to show the relations) a four inch dredge releases 0.00001percent released from a watershed (they don,t mention the size of the watershed) in a NORMAL year, or 0.000000000001percent in a flood year.Also then do not mention that the 4 percent of the mercury that escaped (while recovering 96 percent)from the dredge recovery system, quickly settles back beeing heavy and because dredging does not happening during floods so it wan,t stay suspended .And then do not mention that in the next flood there will be less mercury released in that watershed because the dredge removed it.

Thats why they work with percentages,(because weights probably would be ridiculous) and a dry year to construct a shocking sentence.Picking selective equations.Not a overall picture.Not mentioning the benefits etc..




Correct me if i,m wrong,I,m no expert in this



p.s.Above all, They state; "a suction dredge COULD release 10 percent of the .."



Probably at full throttle washing out everything out of the box.
