Today my work took me up to Montana, just outside Butte. I bought a pan about a year ago and never used it, today I figured why not, nothing else better to do after work.
This picture is from just 1 pan, 1 shovel full. Needless to say I now have a 5 gallon bucket of dirt to take home.
I feel like this is an EXCELLENT first pan. But Iām so new so Iām not sure.
Also, my panning skill sucks. Any tips would be helpful, Iām pretty sure Iām loosing gold when Iām doing it.
I decided to dig in the layer right before the black clay in the side of a bank on the river. You can see my shovel next to the hole
