dredging

I'm attempting to piece together a smaller 2.5-inch dredge with a power jet. I go to Keene's website, where they offer 2 separate jet log sizes for a 2.5-in. They have it with a 1.25-in jet log, as well as a 1.5-in. What is the difference in performance between these two otherwise identical...

Anywhere you can use a 2' in suction dredge?

My dad wants to do some (mainly) panning for placer gold and possibly light dredging/sluicing. He's 84, but he's in unbelievable shape for his age. He doesn't know much about the internet however. What he DOES know though is that it's a lot easier to get info online than to write to sources of...

FYI In a turn of events, The Obama administration has now entered amicus curiae in support of the State of California. Not good! "The Obama Administration thinks it’s just fine for California to outlaw suction dredging. This further demonstrates the degree to which the Department of Justice...

My dad wants to go gold prospecting. He's looking at building a small dredge using a motor (2-cycle) about the size of a weedeater mower. We've been looking for motor pump combos ready made, but can't seem to find any. Does anyone know of a source for small motor/pump combos like I'm...

I have updated my blog with some more Nome gold mining posts, and have a long list of topics that I plan to post on over the next couple weeks. Most are ideas for posts that I jotted down during breaks while on the dredge, but have not yet sat down and fleshed out, some are going to be based on...

Ok, so I have known about this for about 2 weeks now and I am surprised that no one has posted it here yet. In short, Siskiyou County is back open for dredging! This does not guarantee that you wont get a ticket, but the DA will NOT prosecute you. So at worst you are out time and small court...

Heya everyone; Now that I have a dredge, its time to start planning some trips to Oregon but I have no clue where to go or how things work up there. I do know that permits were limited last year but are all streams that Salmon are found in still off limits all year round? Does that mean that...

Well California's gravel transfer loophole has been killed. Oregon is only allowing 850 dredge permits per year and I didn't get one. Where can I go (with decent gold) where I will not have a hard time getting a permit. Either I am going to have to go gorilla style this summer or I need some...

...on Wesabulga Creek. With the frequent rains I was tired of the constant struggle in the swift current, so I decided to move my dredge to an open pit which had been excavated three summers earlier. The gold shown here is from about 7 hours of dredging...not to bad for us boys here in Alabama.
