panning

I am scouting the white river near Indianapolis and I have a sluice box that can pick up some good gold but I am wondering if I will even find gold at all?

I have a homemade sluice box but where I prospect, there is a lot of flour gold and I was wondering if anyone has any ideas on how to make a flour gold recoverer?

I was wondering if anyone has tried panning in the white river, Indiana. If you have, have you had success?

OK, I had to poke a little fun at us prospectors. I filmed a little short up at San Gabriel East Fork. Found a little gold while showing the actor how to pan. :) Hope you like it.

I Found this Pan at an Estate Sale. Not sure if its Real or Faked. Seems to be one solid piece of metal, not sure what kind but it is magnetic. Im pretty sure it is not hand shaped because the edges are curved under and really nice and neat. I have my own theory about it if it is real (such as...

im not sure which metal detector will find me the small(and big) gold nuggets. i checked out the garrett at pro, the fisher gold bug, and the garrett scorpion gold stinger. tell me which you think is best for less than 600. thanks.

i was checking out some youtube videos and found that many people like the bazooka gold trap sluice box. i thought it looked very nice and easy to use. the price isnt really a problem for me either, so $200 is OK. so i need reviews from other people who have used this sluice. also, i would like...

Prescott is still being very generous. This is last weekends take. The one on the right is an unusually coarse chunk. Thanks for taking a gander. HHTA Neal S.

Just started getting into panning. Haven't really found anything. Anyone have any ideas where to go in northeast PA? Is there gold here? I know we have glacial deposits question is did they drop anything good here? Or is it just another thing we're not aloud to do here!!!!! Thanks in advance.

Hey guys, just curious... do you prospect in a river or a stream and/or tributary? I am brand new at this and it seems like the very small stream has yealded 2 specs of flour gold but when i go to the "gold rich" river I find nothing. Do you guys have any pics of where you would normally...

Hey there everyone, just a quick question. I have been sluicing and panning and digging up what seems like the whole river( and tributaries) that is supposed to be the best gold bearing river in northern california but to no avail...I know I have my sluice box setup properly and have tried many...

Hey guys just a question...attached is a video of my new sluice box, this is the very first time that i had ever used one and I set it up per the instructions but after a few 5 gallon buckets worth of material...no gold. The river Im in is one of the cleanest rivers in the us and is known for...

hey guys, just another quick one. Say hypothetically I went panning and sluicing(30" sluice) and a really rich mineral river, every weekend for about 5 hours a day and each time you go out you get a few small flakes but the rest fine gold. How long do you think it would take to get 4 to 5 ounces...
