    pan that dirt at least 3 times. you'll be suprised no matter how long you've been doing it, you always miss some. also put a drop of jet dry in your water. oils from your skin will come in contact with the gold and make it float right out of you pan.

    for practice put 3 or 4 BB's or some lead bird shot in some dirt and pan it.

    and remember gold is where you find it....good luck

    .......actually its the oils causing surface tension on the water which allows some small gold to float..................

    Get your pan further under the water when you are panning and get it down to less material in the pan when you check it or you are going to loose alt of gold
