1 Replies and 2819 Views Desert Forx & Blue Bowl  2819  1 Started by  a.minor@comcast.net Thanks, guys, for your info. With Reget, I have tried everything, adjusting water and angle of wheel, still no luck. Table is level, etc. Will continue to pursue the fine gold. I don't care for basic panning figured either the DF or BB will give me faster results. Again, thanks guys.

2 Replies and 2561 Views Desert Forx  2561  2 Started by  a.minor@comcast.net Desert Fox appears not capable of getting small gold out. Tried everything recommended to no avail. Same with blue bowl. Frustrating.

3 Replies and 2291 Views Desert Fox  2291  3 Started by  a.minor@comcast.net Tried everything, no luck. My paydirt is so concentrated, almost like dust. Tried even heaver, concentrate no luck. Followed instructions in handout, still no luck. I am convinced, in order to retain gold, the concentrate has to be nuggets size gold, rather than small fine gold. I would question the video's that show gold running to the top and dropping in the little basket. At this time, would not recommend the Desert Fox. Anyone who has had had luck processing small gold, please let me know.

8 Replies and 3450 Views 10 digits 1/2 a brain.  3450  8 Started by  postalpotter@gmail.com Hey, A GPAA member for two years. Living in NOLA I have never had a chance to use my membership. I have only prospected in N.C. Tenn. and Ga. I know myself to be a “king of overkill”, by the time I build what I need there is usually a cheaper and maybe better factory model available but that will not stop me! I hope to head to Az. NV. N.M. in the spring. I see from reading here that the ground is getting pretty wet but maybe by the time I arrive it will be dry enough for drywashing. I can’t ...

11 Replies and 3604 Views Arizona Prospecting  3604  11 Started by  Stancalavan1964@gmail.com I have been Prospecting the Arizona desert now for a couple of years with really no success. I did buy a small hand puffer, dry washer but have had no success finding ground worth using it. I have been mining in the Morris town area claims. I know there must still be some gold out there on those claims, just need a little guidance on where to look for it. I tend to migrate towards the small washes and I guess that's not where to go since I have found nothing. Any help would be greatly appreciat...

6 Replies and 3317 Views Membership card  3317  6 Started by  josh92198@gmail.com Hi all, I’m a new member in the so cal area. I tried my best to find the answer to my own question but need some help. I just joined and I am a college student right now, so I took the monthly payment option for the membership. On the webpage, it does show that it doesn’t include a membership card, but I have access to the claims etc. I’ve seen you need a guide, and your membership card with you while prospecting. So how can I gain a membership card Any help is appreciated. Thank you

I joined GPAA so I could be able to pan for gold in Blackhills of South Dakota. The GPAA mining guide 2020 edition listed Eagle Eye 1 as being near Rapid City. When I drove to Eagle Eye, the posted signs said that the claim has reverted back to private land use and GPAA members are not allowed. I did go to Husker claim near Deadwood but noticed that the site wasn't well marked. I found only one gold claim marker but it was part...

(Topic has multiple pages1 2 )
My son and I are going out to Rye Patch in a couple of months. My question is this. Can someone tell me basically how far west of the reservoir we need to drive or hike to get to an area where we would have a fair chance of finding a couple of small nuggets. We have two machines a Fisher gold bug 2 and a MineLab Equinox 800 so they will find really small pieces but I would love a little direction please. Thanks, Ron
