The Saruka is a circular screen mesh over a metal or plastic hoop that is used to "pan" for gold and gems. You can see all about it on this video



It looks pretty easy to make, or cheap to buy, and it appears to work well on the video. Does anyone have any experience, or have a source to post where you can order online?

Yup...they're unsurpassed for gem prospecting. I don't know how they'd do on gold, but would probably be OK for primary concentration. What I like about them is that you can use whatever screen mesh you want, or need. Basically, they're a miniature manual jig.

The guy with the skull cap is a prospecting partner of TNET member Astrobouncer. You might send him a PM and he might be able to send you in the right direction. I believe he may have posted this same video on the board some time ago... I believe he refers to his dredging partner as Indyme2,and he I believe is a TNET member as well. http://www.treasurenet.com/forums/gold-prospecting/320782-dredging-creek-5-a.html


This should give you some direction...http://www.google.com/#hl=en&tbo=d&...0274228fc33ea6&bpcl=39650382&biw=1167&bih=468

The first link is to a Astrobouncer and Indyme2 dredging video. The google link shows pictures and some links to purchase this device....
