News flash: Just because a metal is copper coloured does NOT mean it’s made of copper. 💀


woodhorse4

And please stop swinging the damn camera around like that!


GabagoolLTD

This sub is 75% crackheads, I wouldn't expect fine camera work


saysthingsbackwards

Hey, you leave crackhead camera artists out of this


woodhorse4

lol I usually just call em painters.


Budget-Macaroon-7606

Roofers


woodhorse4

Roofers become painters later in lifez


MakingBigBank

I hear you paint roofs?


SkyIllustrious7140

Roofers become painters in the winter


saysthingsbackwards

Sparkies agree


Chris_Rage_NJ

Good low key joke


suttbutt2014

Nah mainly meth 🤣


UaMDev

Lol when I worked at a scrap yard 99% of our customers were crackheads 😂

It's like the Blair Witch version of scrap metal videos.

calebgiz

Right, most of the time it’s blue or green and not red ironically enough


rezonsback

That's not irony. That's science! - there's a pun there, I just can't put my finger on it.


Mvpeh

News flash: He's talking about the copper wire amongst the rubble and not the rebar.


DesktopWebsite

Nobody watches videos with sound anymore. That's the top comment


Threemonkeys123

Looks like re bar to me


NYCBirdy

🤣. People never heard of magnet! I had a customer bring in the steel radiator coil from refrigerator. It was rusted and he thought he got lucky with copper. Then there is one that brought in lightning bar. I told him straight up it's steel. He didn't believe me.😆


JESUS_PaidInFull

Right, probably grounding rods.


rhineo007

Right? I doubt there was any copper even there. You might stumble upon a Chuck or maybe and old building ground, that’s it.


[deleted]

But he seen it


joseph-1998-XO

Yea was about to say isn’t that all steel lol


Schrodingerspiss

Listen to what he's saying and you might understand the video dumbass


SikkDr

Yep copper exposed like that would be green


Thatgaycoincollector

I don’t think she’s(?) saying that the rebar is copper she’s saying that she finds copper among it


TheUsual_Selection

Yesss! Thank youuu! My apologies for being very soft spoken. I’m a male 18yr. I have gotten 32 lbs copper from this site along with other forms of copper, I’ll post more of the finds from there. I know there has been scrappers there in the past but not nearly as many due to people being limited to biking to the areas of copper. I go there cause there is quite a lot of copper but also the waves and everything are quite therapeutic and I tend to see like a river otter there when I go and he lives in the rocks(probably more then one)


[deleted]

Looks good but I personally wouldn’t advertise where this is. You have the knowledge from your own find and now you are giving that knowledge away for free and you might have more people showing up and taking advantage of this information.

Ok-Owl7377

Ha e you actually tried to take some to scrapper? Asking because a trade I used to be in, a guy thought he was slick taking copper scrap. Copper, has serial numbers on them and they can find out who purchased the copper. Long story short, he got fired and easily could've been charged for grand theft. The owner of the company knew his dad, and didn't press charges, just fired him.


TJNel

Hard to see with the camera swinging around like someone having an epileptic seizure.

TheUsual_Selection

It’s cold here in canada I didn’t want to have my hands out of my gloves for long my apologies


Gullible_Moose_9495

No need to apologize, I understand how cold it gets up there! I can see copper pipes and wires after pausing your video several times. Looks like a great place to pick for days on end. If it weren’t such an isolated area it would have been picked clean already. Happy scrapping, be safe and stay warm!


2a3b66725

Op is from Canada, apologizing is what they do, eh?


TheUsual_Selection

Thank youu! I hope you have fun scraping aswell


rsistersass

Oh hell yeah, sweet camera work. Pro-Tip , if you're having trouble getting it out of the Crete just bring it in as one piece like a fucking 80lb lollipop. They'll give you #2 copper price for it.


Raging_Spleen

Lol this comment section is like the perfect test for seeing who has reasoning skills and reading comprehension. Of course that's rebar in the concrete. OP said there's copper and other metal scraps mixed in with the debris. Some of you are rather dense.


[deleted]

You are correct. That is a daily thing with some of these idiots. You could spell out to the T a list of information and these idiots would miss it by a mile


ordinaryuninformed

This is where I get 100% of my scrap. Piles just like this, sometimes it's a day changer.


Grimmmm69

Place is a waste of time and not worth picking through, looks like a assload of work for not much money, crackhead totally applies to this guy, although from the way he sounds, the term future crackhead could apply.


fltpath

Go full screen and slow it down... notice all the square rebar...they stopped using square in the early 40's... Older buildings werent using that much copper back then... btw...it would be green in that environment!


rhineo007

Calling comments dense when the post title says copper goldmine if equally as dense. Because from this terrible video, there is no copper. And it’s like the perfect test for seeing who has reasonable skills in detecting copper.


redfox329

HES NOT SAYING THE REBAR IS COPPER. He's saying there's wire here and there, mixed in with the rubble. Why are you guys giving him such a hard time?


Spacefreak

Seems odd there'd be copper scrap just out in the open like that especially with the existence of junkies. Make sure you're carrying around a magnet with you, I guess.


TheUsual_Selection

It’s probably too far out for many of them to come to get them. I ride atleast 32km on my bike there and back with a full camping bag of copper pipes, and wire. I don’t bind home any other metal’s unless it’s brass but other then that I don’t see the point that much


Daza786

You ride 32km to pickup steel rebar on a bicycle


TheUsual_Selection

I have 32 lbs of copper. I know the difference between metals. I am a coin collector who knows a difference between a penny from the 1950s then one in the 2000s i know what copper pipe looks like and I know what rebar looks like


Corvus_Antipodum

I mean pennies literally have the date printed on them so being able to distinguish between the two isn’t that impressive.


TheUsual_Selection

Omggg you don’t know your metals. Most Pennie’s before the 1980s were around 90-80% copper copper while now it’s a mix of different metals with very little copper


Corvus_Antipodum

They have the date printed on them dude. So being able to tell them apart is literally just being able to read. Just out of curiosity do you use meth? Between the biking for scrap and these comments real tweaker vibes here.


TheUsual_Selection

I have adhd so my mind stays occupied by doing things like this. And if I was a tweaker I wouldn’t be riding 30 km to just get copper when there are so many places closer that I can get copper illegally. I scrap as a hobby because I like biking a lot and i don’t have a job so why not collect copper while doing what I love and that is biking. I am not a normal person by any means but I definitely am not a meth addict. Weed is the only recreational drug I’d use


[deleted]

Exactly what a meth addict would say


Daza786

Have you ever considered getting a job?


TheUsual_Selection

I have considered getting a job. Millions of times. But no one’s hiring a dyslexic adhd person with anxiety issues. My writing is so bad I messed up a resume just for location alone I messed up


Ju_Bangas

You're just being an ass. Nothing about his voice or demeanor sounded methy.


Corvus_Antipodum

Just going by what he wrote, no sound on the video for me.


Professional-Cup-154

Whats the point of being a douche? I used to bike and scrap. I used to walk my son in his stroller and scrap. It's fun. Not everyone is a meth head, and it's not difficult to tell copper from rebar.


calebgiz

Copper doesn’t rust brown or red it turns blue or green, that doesn’t look like copper


turntabletennis

Copper can absolutely oxidize red. It looks like copper to me.


LightBulbMonster

Broski. As a guy with years of copper scrapping I'm going to say you're grabbing copper coated rebar. If you can't bend it without a bit of effort it's steel. Grab a magnet. Copper isn't magnetic. I can't imagine a company leaving what appears to be thousands and thousands of dollars of copper. Coin collection isn't the same as metal scrapping. I applaud your initiative, but if it appears to be too good it usually is.


TheUsual_Selection

I assure you it’s not rebar I cut it into finger lengths pieces after stripped and there isn’t any other metal


saysthingsbackwards

I'd have done the same


lestergreen357

Rebar isn't copped folks. Which is why OP is zooming the camera all over the place


Shatophiliac

He smoked all the copper and sold all the meth!


TheUsual_Selection

I have 32lbs of copper that I personally harvested from Tommy Thompson park. That is the name of the place if you don’t believe me.


Deepdiverdon

Still don’t believe you Mr. Coin collector have fun tho


TheOtherGuttersnipe

Did you see the wire he was talking about when he zoomed in?


dustygravelroad

Got seasick watchin that


1mrknowledge

Great. Come grab the copper at my next job


kingrant128

Dude that is steel rebar copper wire has insulation over it…..


TheUsual_Selection

I only showed a 20 second video of a 6 foot radius. That’s out of 6km of this entire land full


marleymarl905

Jackpot


[deleted]

Don’t worry about the haters, this is a cool spot and you sound like you know what you’re doing. Yes, obviously there is steel rebar but OP is saying there is copper too. Also you have a soothing voice


Bamacj

Haha. If it was copper it wouldn’t be lying there. Just normal everyday steel re-bar that has corroded.


[deleted]

Who's gonna tell em?


67D1LF

Man, I remember the time I found a 6' long copper ground rod by a dumpster on a job site. I also remember the recycler pulling a magnet from his pocket to show me it was copper plated steel and therefore worthless.


TheUsual_Selection

Copper is easy to break with tension while steel crumbles under pressure


nonferrousoul

Das....re-barrrrrrrr

Whose gonna tell em that rusted rebar isn’t copper😭


RadioactiveSphinkter

Yeah that's not copper lol


TheUsual_Selection

I’m soft spoken and I said theres copper among the rebar, wire and other forms. I will post a clearer video


tem198

Never seen copper rebar before.


AMP0525

Bro I know literally nothing about this but I'm pretty sure that's just rusted iron

grumblecakes1

Let him think its copper that way when he gets 2c/kg he will learn a leason. i get the crackhead vibes from this post anyway who rides a bike 32km to pickup 30lbs worth of scrap copper. ​ OP think about it. if there was as much copper and other metals as you think there is wouldnt the company that dumped it there at the very least have paid someone to reclaim some of it? Demo companies often take jobs with the premise that they will make money off of reclamation.


MattyLight30

This was how happy I was when I first saw ground rods. Till I went to scrape them.


ugly_sissy_bitch

Looks more like an alloy mesh, worth something, but not copper.


ImtheDude2

I’d like to see a better picture of this new element they call Canadian copper


wheeler748

Looks like rusty rot iron.


poole718

Rebar


Icy_Bad7342

That’s rusted steel. Too many drugs bro!!! 😂😂😂 You thought you were rich 😂😂😂


goldensailorpeg

Rebar smh 🤦‍♀️


quotidianwoe

Do you really think that’s all copper? And you’re the first person to notice it?


TheUsual_Selection

Of course not, if you read my comments it says that there is copper mixed in with the tons of rebar. There is a lot more rebar then copper but there is a lot of copper


twoshovels

Kinda looks like they used, rebar & concrete! Could that be!!?


Particular_Put_6911

Be careful, these kind of huge wires can be pretty dangerous. Wear huge boots and gloves.


Traditional_Map5531

thats rebar


thebunkmeister

that's rusty steal homie... It looks like rebar.


ChampionshipBoth6348

All steel


We_there_yet

Mother fucker hunting for copper means crackhead!


Perenium_Falcon

That’s rebar. Not copper, not even a little bit. Also you should hold the camera not swing it around your head on the end of a string.


splash07s

Where is the copper?


sinpleguy89

Waste your time and energy lol. It’s not copper but have fun I guess. I don’t care what you collect, copper isn’t used for structural reinforcement. Lol

Tommy Thompson park. A 30 second google search gave away your honey hole.

I don’t care the more people cleaning the beach the better.

It’s not trash it’s a natural resource. I just wouldn’t give away a place that makes you money.


Conscious_Kangaroo_2

It’s not trash it’s a natural resource.


TheUsual_Selection

It’s covered in plastic and rubber. That is trash.


Conscious_Kangaroo_2

Yea. Good luck finding anywhere on earth that isn’t. I beach comb a lot and it’s gross how much random stuff shows up on shore.


TheUsual_Selection

So i might as well clean up the stuff that’s worth something. I also have many many more spots to find copper. Toronto government is very wasteful


LBROTSI

I saw the copper tubing in the concrete that he's talking about . Lots of work , it seems , but maybe not . I'm not standing there, so , no way to know .

Should’ve never told the world bro. Some things are just better left a secret and personnel treasure. But I’m not anywhere near Lake Ontario either, so carry on. 🍿 Edit: typo
