GoldProspecting Panning Separation Mining Black Sands Removal

For Gold Prospecting: This is what I call the Two Bucket Method it is easier & faster than gold panning to concentrate gold! For the recreational gold prospector it is by far the most inexpensive and easiest means to capture and concentrate micron gold dust & larger from the earth, black sands, ect. It's better than any non-mechanical means I know of.

@goldrushgang true, but these cons don't contain alot of gold particles but do have a lot of gold flakes in them. It separates them from the rest of the cons, just upside down. I've tried it with 30 mesh and 50 mesh so far, seeing as most alluvial gold is so minescule you can't even see it with your eyes i'm hoping 100 mesh will do better.

@Bleppe Can you send me a picture? The gold is heavier and should be on the bottom. Whats under the gold? Sand? Black sand? Platinum? Platinum is heavier than gold. 24k gols has a specific gravity of 19+ Natural gold is less than 19 because it has copper or silver mixed in. Platinum has a specific gravity of 21.51. You may have platinum in your cons. If so, the gold would be lighter and would be on top.

Tried it with screened cons, made a little mountain in the bucket with flake gold on top. Not sure if i'm doing it wrong or if this guide is bogus...

[goldrushgang]

@Bleppe Screened to what size? -18 mesh works best. At -18 a 200 mesh particle of gold is heavier than the largest particle of sand. The heaviest particles naturally go to the bottom and into the test cap.

mate??? i can pan that size gold in my pan and keep it there at the river!!!

[goldrushgang]

@rooshooter1977 Great! Make a video and show us!

[Bleppe]

@goldrushgang They pretty much stay where you put them in the blue bowl, but if you churn them up too violently with the bucket method they march to the top apparently, and yes i do have platinum in my cons.

good job man

who say otherwise - can come up with better process

(still waiting for the video of panning fine gold with pan ?????)

[MrMantura]

Very good video. I used to used mercury as well to create an amalgam. I love your method! Very Ingenious!

[aleeeex1055]

dude, if i saw that gold in my pan, i would freak!!!

[MrSnafu44]

wow that is messy . i can pan flour gold using the old method . water and pan .

Has anyone tried the process where you add borax to your concentrates and then melt the whole thing? It's supposed to leave glass on top with a small gold/PM dore at the bottom. I haven't been able to find much info on the process though and it supposedly works as good as mercury
