I don't see any gold... Why is your black sand so sparkley ?

Haha , that's like a $60 day good job !!

@MUDSWAT the place we were digging at is noted more for fine flour gold . more up river pickers show up if your working hard. it was a good day. had fun with chris..

you are panning in some the area that i gone during the summer month of the year 2009. much of the gold is flood gold

[scorpiotoyou]

yes your right. there is plenty as the season opens but as soon as the people get out to prospect after winter there aint much left.

i live in upstate ny. i'm gonna go for it and do me some panning. not expecting to find anything ... but all i need is 1 pan and a dream. thanks for the vids !!!!

if you dont get a chance and find anything, keep looking. read up on anything you can that deals with gold in your state. also try gem hunting! i hear you have plenty of different types there , also if that don't work, look at my video of randy s rich Georgia concentrates and see if that's something that interests you? good luck!

that is alot of black sand

NEAT---Looks like long drawn out doings to get the small gold separated from the dirt--but that little vial of gold sure looks sweet

[scorpiotoyou]

in general gold has been always present were there was heavy black sand. its just that way ..but it does not mean that there will be gold there for sure.. i any one spot. keep trying and just have fun at it.

Just for fun I panned a full pan out of the stream beside where I live and got half that much black sand but no gold. Heavy mineral sand is not the best indicaitor IMO, but lead shot is!
