    When I was a teenage kid in Edmonton, my buddies father Mr. Parks always said that through the depression years they did ok , as he would head down to the the river by Goldbar park, named appropriately, and pan gold as his hobby latter in life, then as work and food was scarce during the depression years he honed his panning skills just to feed his family. Many years we would help him take his sowed together welcome mats out to the Egg lake sand and gravel pit where he would place the mats under the screened gravel. Once a week the mats were collected and cleaned of flower gold in the basement. Sometimes the floor drain got plugged, and when we vacuumed out the black sand and residue he would use mercury to collect the gold dust. The mercury wasn’t a good idea then but it worked. I remember passing by 20 or 30 one ounce glass jars sitting in the boot and shoe cupboard at the top of the basement stairs. Mr. Parks would sell the gold to dealers who flew in once a year and pay cash…in those days gold was just $34 dollars an ounce. It was his hobby when he retired, and it kept him in spending money. The one thing that impressed me the most is that when times get really bad , the North Saskatchewan River is there to feed you and your family with a little bit of work involved.

    Excellent video Andy...well edited and balanced. Anyone who has made videos can appreciate how one collects hours of video and trims them down into a reasonable video length. This coming year, I too am going to classify my concentrates with my final VDR 3" clean-up sluice down at the river (I run them twice). That way, I just remove the magnetics and back-pan at home. These cleaned concentrates will then be re-run again at a later time. Hope to run into you in the field one of these days.

      @@TheJohnEdmonton thank you John! Thanks for giving it a watch :) I think taking your VDR to classify the cons down at the river is a great idea, I like it. I imagine it will be a lot faster then just straight panning everything also. For every hour on the highbanker this year I spent another hour panning nearly :p I may try something like that next season too! I am going to try and check out more spots next season, I look forward to seeing you out there!
