Ore sample Bags

[CGC Miner]

Does anyone know where to buy individual ore sample bags. I'm looking for 12, 1 gallon or so sized sample bags that are suitable for precise assays and won't "hang" on to any microscopic gold.
Thanks for any help.

Thanks guys, I've looked at those sites but the smallest quantity they sell are boxes of 100..
They are not too expensive so I might have to get a bundle.

If you know of anyone with a ranch/farm,they probably have lot's of empty feed sacks.....or buy those sandbag sacks people use in flooded areas,available at most hardware/home improvement stores.

ore sample bags were usually made of canvas . most saddle shops have a large supply of canvas,and will sew you some bags of any size and quantity you would like . if no saddle shop ,try an upholstery shop.if nothing else cut off some legs of old levi's and sew the one end closed and tie the open end with twine.it will work !

Try army surplus stores, military loves canvas
