Went to try recirculating sluice for the first time. Brought home 2 buckets of cons to pan nothing obvious in the box we could see. Let everyone know what happens when it's panned out
 
Don't know where iron canyon is but can't wait to see what you found. Love seeing gold no matter how much. Have fun cleaning up!
 
titan, you'll find some lead. Boy will you find some lead. Gold also. G/L
 
Well after sluicing roughly 11 12 buckets 3/4 full we found very little. surprised at how little black sand we found also. We dug next to a shale rock wall broke off lots of the shale to find a lot of material trapped in the cracks. we dug down aprox 3 feet and 6 feet or so along the shale wall thought that we would have found more than 3 or 4 micro pieces in our cons. Oh well next time still need to mess with the sluice set up to fine tune material was rolling thru ok classified to 1/2 inch.
 
Titan ,the obvious places in Iron Cyn have been hit hard many times.It's only about 10 miles from the LDMA camp. Prospect around some of the side washes and more difficult to get to spots Good Luck
 
That's what I figured. Thanks for the reply it was fun anyway to get out Going out to Barstow this friday I will report back with reults.
