it's worth about 5 dollars a 100 pound bag. The value of getting the black sand out is to make it easier to pan out the gold.

I am just starting with the whole gold from sand thing. And I have put together two ways I am now thinking how to get gold, from concentrate or black sand. obviously it would be about 100 times easier to get the black sand, scoop it up and pan it or w.e

this is the removal of black sand that is primarily iron particles. These particles are naturally occuring in nature. They are found in the areas also associated with gold regions. This excersize is to pull out the blacksands and leave everything else as well as the gold. The magnet is a nail pick-up tool. It is rated at 16 lbs.
