Fine stream gold extraction 2218 5
Started by sandman.mjm@gmail.com
I found a decent amount of fine gold caught up in sand in a stream. I just got a blue bowl but cannot get the gold to settle properly. It keeps going over the edge of the center hole. My partner made a jig out of pvc but still needs work on getting it to work good. What is the best way to refine the fine gold out of the river sand Help is appreciated....thank you much. Michael

Can anyone recommend a company where you get something smaller than dust for gold Of the companies, Alaska included nothing but gold so fine, impossible to capture, just either washes out or disappears. Help.

Started by jerry.perez1969@gmail.com
Hello all, Can anyone tell me all the coordinates for big bear Holcomb Gold We would need Ingress,Center ,S,E,W,N coordinates for boundaries as well. Apparently, the coordinates in the mining guide are incorrect and don't know if the website has updated them. Charles jojola added some in there awhile back but it would be nice to have admins confirm the coordinates as revised. Thanks guys, Jerry the mining Monkey

Arizona desert prospecting 1208 2
Started by Stancalavan1964@gmail.com
Anyone have any tips or tricks to find a little gold in the desert. I have been working the claims in the little San Diego area and haven’t found a thing. Was hoping to purchase a dry washer at some point but until I can find a little color I think I will hold off on that. Been working the smaller washes, sides of the washes, and in between the washes. I guess I don’t know we’re to look. Thanks for any tips Stan

Crushing Quartz 41417 34
Started by ompomelet@gmail.com
Saw an interesting Youtube video a bit ago.
Guy took a lemon sized smooth quartz stone from a gold bearing river and crushed It using a steel mallet and t-shirt. As he broke it up, he checked for gold veins and found none, but panned out the crushed rock and found what appeared to be nearly 0.5 grams of nice gold flakes.
Anyone else ever tried that with good results

The gold was Supposed to be there according to the indicators. 2924 4
Started by guy@guydewhitney.org
I just got back. A spot too far downstream from a gold source can have virtually all of the nice indicator rocks and amazing looking gravel bars and still not have an appreciable amount of gold because gold is 5 times heavier than anything else in the river except platinum. So there will be a bottom edge of nice prospects that fail to pan out If you have found wonderful indicators but little or no gold it would be well to work further and further upstream. Unless you reach a point where the i...

No Tips - No Tricks - Just a question 1472 1
Started by Mike Davis
hmmm... Gold has existed for millions of years. Waters where gold is found today, is almost never where it was millions of years ago. So, wouldn't it be reasonable to believe that most gold is not in most current waters That it exists where you'd likely never think to look Does that mean we have to think like a gold nugget (rock) :-)

wet you pay dirt before sluicing 1514 3
Started by sergprinting@sbcglobal.net
As funny as it sounds, Gold dose float, so always wet your pay dirt before putting it in the sluice, otherwise your gold could float away and into the next persons sluice. I've learned a lot in a year! Newbie, Sergio

GMT 3469 16
Started by pyrography10178@yahoo.com
I recently purchased a Whites GMT. It came with the 6'x9' Double D coil and a 8'x14' Sierra Gold Max coil. I took it out to the gpaa claims in the Morristown area. Towards the end of my testing and it was getting hot. I put the big coil on. I got up on this hill overlooking a wash and started detecting. I got this positive zip zip sound. I scraped the loose gravel with my boot and still got a good signal. I scraped down another 2-2 1/2' and found a .04 gram flake of lead. I wish now I had starte...

Hello all, i thought I would share this with all, I'm not pro at getting the fine gold, but I made a sluice frame that doubles as a miller table and also made a sluice with acrylic that goes on top of the miller table frame, so i made this acrylic sluice as a miller table on top with a deep well about 1/3 & the rest i put a shallow V rubber mat that slides in & out under the miller table part for easy clean out, and as you know the miller table is a great way to seperate the gold from the black...

Docs Detecting 1412 2
Started by scubajimwood@gmail.com
I read an interesting article on equipment and tools by Kevin Hoagland in GP Mag. He mentions Doc's Detecting as a source to order Bates boots and some other items. I tried the phone number on their website and just get an automated message that does not sound like a business. Does anyone do business with Docs and can you advise how I can contact them for an order Thank you.

Fellow Prospectors: Kind of an odd scenario going on, without going into to much detail, limiting my ability to hold and feed buckets of material into the Raptor. To keep my AU chasing dreams alive, I’m needing to come up with a clever solution. Does anyone know of a hopper set up, which I might mount over the Raptor which could feed into the destruction chamber, or something similar I usually bring material home and put it through the Raptor in my yard, so it doesn’t re...
