blues_dad Posted March 7, 2008 Report Share Posted March 7, 2008 Ok, I think everyone knows I haven't done any prospecting yet. But I wanted to learn how to pan, so I bought a bag of cons off Ebay. Here are the results of the first run-through. Just imagine what got past me into the tub!! I don't know how much I have there, but there are a few pickers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ridge Runner Posted March 7, 2008 Report Share Posted March 7, 2008 blues dad Are you still here!After seeing that gold you pan out I'd was thinking you'd be gone to Ca. so you wouldn't be late getting there.Isn't it great how little gold it takes to get your blood boiling better known as gold fever. Best to you blues dad! Chuck Anders Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

acronn Posted March 8, 2008 Report Share Posted March 8, 2008 You might be surprised how much you caught on your first try. That was pretty chunky. Pretty too! I've worked hard for a couple of days for that much gold before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blues_dad Posted March 8, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 8, 2008 gotgold, all you gotta do is go on ebay and search for dredge concentrates, there are quite a few who sell them. I paid around $30 for a sandwich baggie full of cons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
