Ok, I have the gear, sluice, pans, classifiers, gold magic wheel.
Many thoughts as I take on the adventure of re self teaching and learning panning etc.
My friends kids like nieces basically are learning with me as well. I think Iāve gotten the panning down quite well. 3 1/2lb bags of gold rush paydirt resulted in .5 grams of gold. A nice snag!
I have over 30lbs of other purchased pay dirt which seems to have very small gold to almost micron gold.
As of now here is my kind of thoughts / questions in my head.
1. The big challenge Iām finding is a way to even using the blm to do a map/claim overlay! Im looking to avoid claims donāt want to accidentally end up on someone elseās claim.
2. Iāve thought about the GPAA, but I also figure a shared claim even at 20 acres had have to been quite well picked over. There is a claim in the area Iām looking at but itās 20 acres at 2k..
3. With panning as a test of areas, once I find a good one I think Iām ready to sluice for hours and bucket up the concentrates for detailed clean out at home.
4. Pops in my head as usual.. how can I see these maps of claims and be able to
Recognize locations, maybe overlaying another map google earth etc?
5. Due to current job will be interesting to see how my body holds up haha, current shape isnāt the best.
6. Other than gold in the pan, gold in the sluice and gold in the vial, is there a cure for
Gold fever?! Haha. But also
I love nature, camping and getting out into wilderness.
7. So people always say east fort San Gabriel, or Lytle creek, is there any other areas where one can really run a sluice not 3 hours away from whittier ish area.
Or Any non traditional areas but legal lol!
Iāve done so much bought pay dirt that I also want to dig and classify some of
My own concentrates as well. Then when trapped at work Iāll have some pay dirt to work from home..
