so i bought my first sluice ...30 inch EZ sluice but couldnt wait for it to get here so i fashioned my own and went out for the first time today. Built it from wood and some riffled carpet and Worked a nice creek i thought would have some flour gold in it and did get some black sand but nothing but very microscopic gold and a LOT of what appears to be smashed gemstones? any help from Indiana prospectors ? i found a lot of rusty spots on an old eroded side of the creek where bedrock was exposed and worked them figuring it was iron ...any suggestions?
 

good for you! you got out there and got something going!! you need to visit midwestprospetor.com and read what information Chuck Lassiter has! plus hes on yahoogroups. hes been very informative and helpfull to many prospectors.
