The good thing about panning with the black sand is seeing that contrast of the gold against the black.
Is there a sand dryer machine.
Hi Shane, this is Bill, the Panning Professor at Gold -N- Detectors. Thank you for the shout out and coverage. Sorry I was out when you were in on Monday. I could have told you about a customer doing this same operation more than 20 years ago. He termed it "fishing for gold". Yes, as you proved, the process works. He 'fished' off of the foot bridge near the library. To clean up his black sand, he used plastic (clean) peanut butter jars and a vertically mounted paint can shaker. After agitating the gold to the bottom of the jar, he could safely discard the black sand from the top level. Then he used that same blue finish pan to do the final separation. Enjoyed your video.
Hey Bill! Thanks for having the best prospecting store ever. I had no idea if this would work, but kind of made sense to try it. Thanks for watching! atb -KG
Thats genius!
it look like your store had a great selection for all kinds of prospecting! I can tell I would spend a pile in that place. it's like a big boy toy store or something!
@@Klesh I paused the video at 1:39 I have something I want you to look at, 1st I've been noticing for the last couple of months that there are anomalies in 99% of all videos, One that I will point out is at the time stamp 1:39, I take screenshots and zoom in and I see all kinds of strange things, At that time stamp take a screenshot, Zoom into the Gray clump of vegetation, look to the left side and there is something peeking out, looks like an elephant trunk among other things I see. I see a lot of stuff everywhere, it's crazy I know. No, I'm not tripping, So far one other channel is starting to see what I see.
@@americanrebel413 trunk at the left, at the RIGHT LOW are two FACES looking at us. WAy across the slope , way left is a darklong object. What is the object!
I'm loving what you're doing! My sister and I spent several weeks each summer with our grandma and her husband Foster. They always took us out on a fun weekend adventure, my favorite was panning for gold! You're living the life I wish I could live...Thanks!!
Lynn in Law Vegas!
Thanks Lynn Newcomb-Hrnciar glad you enjoyed it!
I was just in that area a couple of weeks ago. We stopped on the side of the hwy and I filled up 2 thirstbuster cups with dirt and rock and panned it when I got back home in Florida. Found a bunch of fine gold and a couple of flakes,,,and also what I think is silver. I love that area up there!
Jason's Out There excellent! I love it here in CO. Atb -KG
Jason's Out There
Gold is paramagnetic, not nonmagnetic. Actually, anything that is nonmagnetic can be attracted to a strong magnet. You can use a very strong magnet to bend a stream of water.

I know your comment was a while ago but I wanted to warn you that oftentimes the “silver” stuff is amalgam of gold and mercury. I’ve run into a bit of it in streams left from the old miners.
I watched this video for the second time. I have a suggestion for you, As with all suggestions if you like it , Try it, If not you know where the trash can is. Select your rocks and spots that you would prospect during good weather. when bad weather comes and the river floods, Wait for it to be safe and practical to use the magnet. You may need a pole and extra weight. You would have more of a chance for more and larger gold with the black sand if it has not had the chance to sink below the black sand. Good Fortune to You.
That was a pretty clever idea. Using a magnet. Thanks for sharing!
Great video Shane! It's quite mesmerising watching black sands dance under a magnet like that. Cheers.✌️
Thanks for watching! -KleshGuitars
It seems that everyone is an expert.... so here's my two cents worth!
Try building a miniature fractionating table. It has a large rectangular corrugated surface, angled from top left corner to bottom right corner. A stream of wet black sand is trickled (using running water) onto the top left corner of the table, and as it drains away to the bottom right corner the elements separate, because of their differing Periodic Table weight properties.
The fractionating table has a vibrator attached to it, in the form of an electric motor with an offset weight... like an orbital sander. The vibration, and the gravity feed, does all the work for you.
Look up some stuff from old sand mining operations from the late 1960s. That's when I saw it happening in the flesh.
When I was in primary/elementary school, they took us to a sand mining refinery to see how it all worked. Down the lower side of the little rainbow spectrum of elements that appeared, as if by magic, out of the sand (on the bed of the fractionating table) there was a thin band of gold particles. They told us that there was enough gold yielded every day to fund the entire operation (which was huge, with great big earthmoving machines and a factory sized building) and that the rutile, zircon, silica, and ilmenite they were mining was all pure profit.
Hope that helps you cut down on drudge time... you'll have to build a table and do some experimenting of course... but after that, it's all cream!
Good luck man, and thanks for the vids.
artofnoly hhh
I got my first gold pan there...along with a bad case of "THE FEVER" ..very hard to cure for a resident of central Ohio😖..sadly I just lost that pan this weekend in a moment of rookieness (yeah I think that's a word😋)...turned my back for just a second and the current swiped it away..Any way love that shop and all of Golden! Good luck and can't wait to see your next prospecting adventure! Cheers!
Too bad about you losing your pan. Good luck with your prospecting adventures! Thanks for watching! atb -KG
Chris Smith
Do you think it's possible to find gold in central Kentucky? I know probably not likely
just found the channel and already loved it
Sweet! I've always wondered if that would work, thanks for posting the whole process.
It works, but not as good as regular old gold panning. If anything, it will help locate the black sand, and that's where I'll find more gold. Thanks for watching
Great video! Really enjoyed it - so much so that I subscribed! Keep on doing this!
Nice!
That rock/piece of metal you found at 14:48 might have been a meteorite. Worth more than gold. But you probably know that. Very cool video! Subscribing.
Pretty cool idea, back and knee saving too as you don't need to shovel. But that will only work for flour gold I imagine. Awesome video. Gold in my area is bigger so I'll just stick to crevicing and sniping. Hope you hit a big pay streak this summer.
I was surprised I got so much gold from doing it this way, it's as much as I get from hours of sluicing. Thanks for watching! atb -KG
You need a miller table to separate it efficiently
I could def use this magnet process where I live in deeper areas. Thanks for the run through. Love the videos.
Thanks Scrapyardogg Indoor and Outdoor Adventures for watching!
@@Klesh Ill always be back. Lol
Absolutely 😎👍👍AWESOME!!! I use a magnet while dry panning, so glad to see another one who knows how to find GOLD. That was some beautiful outdoor scenery. Many thanks for making your video. Always Good Vibes & Lots of Luck for Au from Las Vegas Nevada.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Thanks Tom Weidler glad you enjoyed it!
Used to do this in cherry creek when we were kids. We collect the magnetite and then dad would put cyanide solution in the buckets to leach the gold out of the mag. Great video took me back to the '80s.
Cool! That cyanide solution idea among others are good ways to get a lot more gold out. Maybe in a future video I can do something like this. Thanks for watching! atb -KG
Jay Hanes
Is there a safe (environmentally speaking) way to dispose of the cyanide solution? I'd like to try this if I can do it without killing stuff.
no one got cyanide poisoning out of this method ?
They probably couldn't tell if that were the case
@@dmoted09 there is another word for cyanide poisoning, its called death
If put a handkerchief over the magnet, when you pull it off, all of the black sand will drop off and the magnet will stay clean and you can rinse the handkerchief from the back and get the last amount that is left on it.
Handkerchief is probably the best suggestion I've heard. I don't want to use plastic, because it's hard to clamp and will most likely break. I thought about using a crown royal bag, since it already has pull strings. Thanks for watching and the suggestion! atb -KG
And you could blow your nose with it too!
@@Klesh I use an ankle sock to do it.
Plastic bag over the magnet is cleaner and does not capture any dirt
@@billhauck6425 with a strong magnet like mine it rips if it is plastic, even a sock tears after an hour.
Thanks for making this video- very informative and engaging. Learned something new.
glad you liked it
Enjoyed the video can't wait to try it out this spring and summer
Did this in a similar manner just to clean from lots of black sands.....used magnet inside a ziplock plastic bag,,worked pretty well,,much easier than cleaning off the magnet every pass.... Gold-N-Detectors...Good people,,bought lots of stuff there over the years,,gold fever seems to pull cash right out of your pocket....too many things you got to have,,,one method or another....
Thanks rockytop wrangler for watching!
We always used magnets over our sluices to remove the magnetics...
We called it the magnetic bridge. Magnets in a wooden box...
Oh, and try an orbital pattern when panning.
Thank you Pat Tiekamp!
orbital is amateur. it works but not efficient
Great store, loaded with all the good stuff.
Thanks CR
I agree CR62, and thanks for watching!
Thanks for all your video's! I just moved to Wheat ridge and cant wait to find some gold. Plan to check out the store you recomend tomorrow.
Justin Reimer excellent man thanks for watching! atb -KG
The main reason I clicked on your video,was because of the Title,...and most importantly is the fact that "YOU DARED TO THINK OUTSIDE OF THE BOX!" I Love the way a Trained thinker dare go outside to explore other ways not in the Text Book's! I also love the idea behind your technique. It may,or may not be old,"But it's new's to a wanna be Rookie like me who is exploring the idea of looking for Gold! "Thanks's!
Thanks for watching! -KleshGuitars
Hey would ya look at that it worked !!! very cool and golden detectors is my favorite prospecting store I've got all my supply's there. way to go man !
Thanks for the suggestion and Thanks for watching! atb -KG
KleshGuitars what is the purpose for adding JetDry?
Jessica Muldivici jet dry acts as a surfactant that breaks the surface tension of the water, preventing the very small flakes of gold from floating away. Thanks for asking!
KleshGuitars very interesting. Thank you for sharing that tip!

been watching a bunch of your videos, thank you! i figure with all the places i go a pan wouldn't be a bad investment haha.
Good Idea B Roll Offroad! Thanks for watching!
My man Shane. I just picked this video out of thin air and look who I found. His channel is the best.
when I seen u magnet fishing in the river getting all that black sand in the other video,I was thinking there must be loads of gold in there and u should of panned it then!but u made this video!champion!
Thanks! Yeah I thought the same thing as well but a commenter pushed me to go back and do it. Thanks for watching! atb -KG
I too thought theirs probably some gold in that black sand in your magnet fishing video. Good to see you got some color out of it. I'm going sluicing this weekend. Keep up the videos 👍.
you
KleshGuitars
Hey fellow Coloradical ! I LOVE THAT STORE MAN. Bill and Louise are the best.I was wondering if you ever swung any parks in Golden.Let me know man.l use the black sand for my roses, they love iron.Well brother you take care of yourself now. Freak out
They helped me get started when I first got into prospecting, Gold-N-Detectors is great! Thanks for watching! atb -KG
KleshGuitars bought my first gold pan out there ...were in Lakewood😁
Very interesting indeed. Thanks for sharing with us your knowledge.
Thank you Norman Mendonca!
Thank you! Been puzzling for ages about how to get samples out from under a waterfall. Magnet and line are in the post.
I have been watching you're video's for 4 dang hours help me
How about this for an idea..... Get a large clear plastic bottle,,, shovel in sand / gravel,,, shake,,, look at the very bottom to se if there is gold to then recover????. I'm going to try it in Scotland 🌄
That's a really simple and genius idea. I might have to try this for a video! Thanks man! atb -KG
🐶,,,👊
I can't wait to get to the hills... My car is waiting for a new engine at the mo... 😠. ... Wish I lived in the states for 'big country' 🌅
Black n Tan, Dowsing rods will show you where to dig. I have been using Dowsing rods for 8 years and they never miss.
John... Interesting,,, I’m up for trying that. ... I was up the hills just before Christmas... only had a few checks in a river... I found gavel and sand!!! Yeh😁
I'm so sad that Gold 'n Detectors is gone, it's fun to see the inside again!
Thank You for the great video and information.
I never tried magnet fishing,,although I heard that you could get your limit in steelhead trout fairly easily.....lol..
Thanks rockytop wrangler for watching!
I did watch the entire video was very interesting I have used a magnet for pulling black sand out of concentrates. The electric panning wheel with the spiral riffels works really good I had one back in the late 70's and 80s , for the short time I had it I recovered approx 20-35 lbs of black sand and out of that maybe 1oz.of free gold.
😀😀
isn't that creek basically a giant sluice box.....your magnet is separating the gold from the black sand before you even get it out of the creek....the majority of the gold is still in the spot where the magnet landed in the water....just with less black sand around it....separating the magnetics after you baked it is pretty much a smaller scale of how you gathered your material back at the creek.....think of all the gold you left behind .....would't it be better to just grab a bucket of dirt from the creek bottom then separate it later to get ALL the gold in one spot
Yes definitely better to grab a bucket of the black sand and then pan it, this was just an experiment that worked a little bit! Thanks for watchin! -KleshGuitars
that's kinda what I think too.
I would get s sort of curved pry/shovel that would actually dig deeper and have a chance to retain some fallen-off gold(?) .... and some "bar", magnets that would also penetrate the sand.
I would think the magnet idea works but of course only picks up the flakes of gold that are superior to the iron oxide(or whatever it is). That is slightly above the metallic stuff, but within the bulk of the metallic stuff.
I think I'm going to do some drawings ....
The big difference is wet vs dry. Wet, a concentration of black sand will hold the gold with it due to surface tension. (same reason we add jet dry when panning). Dry, it's much easier to pull off the magnetics, leaving the gold in the blonds.
PISQUE1969 Francis ]
Clear Creek gold tends to be very fine so there is not much chance of flakes or pickers that you loosing out on.
Shane is the hardest working guy I know. You can learn a lot from him.
Thanks for making your videos, my daughter and I watch you all the time. Keep up the good work✌️ Brett & Lilly
Awesome Brett very cool! Thanks and I'm glad you and your daughter are enjoying the videos!
Man I found a great place on the Nisqually this week and I have a microwave to kill.
Look up to the Swak and Bluet Pass
I'm a 65 year old first time prospector and I'm loving the idea of saving my back by not doing a lot of digging. May I ask what the lifting capacity of the magnet is? Thank you for your time.
Stronger the better
I used a 2"x1" in VT and pick up lot of sand
I did ok after the hurricane irean
Great info vid, I didn't know you could do that that easy. Thanks for the info.
Thanks for watching! atb -KG
Thats awesome! Super creative, keep it up!
Thanks for the good words and thanks for watching! atb -KG
Hey man yeah I noticed that myself the last time I was panning so I was trying to make it easier for myself and extract some black sand from my Pan with z magnet and I transferred it to another Pan to realise I transferred some gold with it👍🤠⛏⛏⛏
On that note, why not process it chemically. Since iron reacts with cheap pool cleaning acid, just dump the entire bucket of black sand into the acid and call it good. What should be left at the bottom is gold, and maybe a few things that won't react with the acid...but I'm not sure what wouldn't. Suffice it to say, one of the only things that for sure won't react is the gold. I keep wonder about a way to isolate gold better...this method seems pretty promising as a start. I can't help but think that it is somewhat throwing the baby out with the bathwater to use the magnet a second time during refinement.
I wonder if those pieces where higher in impurities? 😁
Theres a guy on youtube that made a PVC hand pump that allows you to vacuum waaay out to get gold..i would like to see you try it before it gets too cold..
Seeking TKO - I actually have one of those. I built it but never used it, maybe I'll give it a try this summer. Lots planned though, but I should get to it! Thanks for watching! atb -KG
glad you got to see gold. one of the methods i learned from others is, when separating black sands, is to do it wet and do a triple drop in the pan. you'll see the gold dropping out. i enjoyed!
Interesting. Thanks for watching!
I’ve watched a few videos of yours and I have to say you have great eyesight and lots of patience.
Interesting method..I just wonder if you are leaving a lot of potential gold behind as this "capture by association" method would seem to indicate that only very fine placer gold will be scooped up with any iron powder flakes. A shovel full of gravel and sand might get you an honest to god nugget someday....no?
you never know - Thanks for watching!
NevR mind... looks az tho you sorted it out at home (stopped midway and posted. duh 4 me
Great video. You might be able to increase your yield some by reprocessing the magnetite you initially separated and running it through the magnet separation a second (or even third ) time. You could line up two (or three) plastic containers to make the work easy. Nice!
Nice work! At least you know if there is any gold it will be where all that black sand is. Beautiful river too.
richnuggetdirt@gmail.com
I wonder how long it would take to gather enough of that ferrous/iron to cast a ingot of iron. Hahaha.
I need a big magnet!
That bucket looks fabulous ! Good job... I love Colorado :-)
Thanks for watching! atb -KG
Great idea for removig the black sand. Love it. Thanks
Glad you liked it!
put your magnet in a zip lock then take it out to release the black sand......much faster and you don't loose any.
most off the gold is below the black sand, you left it there.
pull it out with your pvc suction tube and run it thru a bazooka sluice.
R Zinger sounds good, thanks for watching! atb -KG
R Zinger excellent idea.
Any thing to use as an outer magnet covering would be much cleaner for sure.
I was going to suggest this
Bazooka Sluice is amazing.
KleshGuitars - maybe using a little vibration would make the black and gold particles fluid enough to separate easily .
that is dam interesting.Why is black sand attracted to a magnet?Not sure PA has much if any in the streams around here.THANKS A LOT FOR THE SHOUT OUT TO FRIEND.
Thanks. The black sand that is attracted to the magnet is mostly Magnetite / Iron, which is always found along with the Gold in my area. My idea was that if I used a magnet to collect the wet "black sand", then some gold should come along. I was right! Alright, thanks for watching! atb -KG
you are welcome great vids
because it's magnetic duh
ok not all black sand has gold but if you find both in an area there is a good chance to get the gold out of the black sands...my method is old and dangerous but the payoff can be worth it
So sparkly. I love it!
Thanks GOLDBULLIONTREASURES HistoryRetriever for watching!
What fun. Almost like being there without all that hiking, getting wet and the like. Since I can't walk but a few feet on a totally flat surface, this is how I can go hiking and hunting for gold. Thanks for sharing.
Yea I am grateful I am still able to get around (although I do have some extreme pain with my back/leg) and I'm happy to bring you along. Thanks for watching!
I remember when I was in the state of North Carolina gold prospecting way back in the early 2000s there was a magnet I used for gold recovery and I remember dropping it a few times behind this big rock that I was digging and throwing it in a bucket and I took all the magnetite and brush it off into a mason jar and I took it home and actually panned it out little by little like you said in your video and actually found little specks of flour gold and Tiny flakes as well back in 2002 to 2003 and 2004. So I know the strategy works cuz I tried it long ago with a kind of mistake I made by leaving the heavy magnetite in my black pan I was going to dump it out later and forgot and it was stocked in the truck and later I panned it out just seeing because I thought I seen gold glittering underneath some of the heavy magnetite. I thought it was pyrite but was not sure until I panned it out and realized it was actually gold. So I was puzzled until I realized it was because it was stuck to the magnetite from the magnet and this is why and how it was collected with a small amount of gold with the magnetite.
Yep, I believe it! Especially if I was getting small specks slamming this weaker magnet in the river against rocks etc..and still getting some gold! Thanks for watching!~
No problem I also just subscribed and following you.

You're welcome! Thanks for the comment and Thanks for watching! atb -KG

You're not taking into account the money made off of the video. It got you to watch it and it got me to watch it. Doesn't matter if he hit the jackpot with the magnet.
Wow, i know my original comment wasnt the greatest, but i do have enough common sense to appreciate your idea, the purpose of your idea, the outcome was medicocre to say the least, BUT many of the other comments are from some truly ignorant people that dont deserve to see what you were doing because they simply lack a brain
..period! Regardless of .5 grams, ive spent more time recovering gold from electronics only to ruin the chemical process and risk being burned by aqua regia, ect. Ive always had the gold fever. Love the way ANY amount of gold looks like!!
And you back said thank you. Great video. GL&HH
Thanks for watching! atb -KG
Enjoyed your video! i think I will give this a try
Good luck man!
? Amazed I have always found gold to be a non magnetic metal.
Chris D Osborne He isn’t actually catching gold with the magnet....he is sweeping up clumps of magnetic black sand that has gold flake mixed in, but he lost all the larger flakes and heavier pieces in the process.....hopefully he dredged those areas by hand also. While his method may not be the most efficient for harvesting gold, it is a hell of a good way to quickly prospect an area for dredging.
@@WilliamBrinkley45 after a short thought about magnetism it is inevitable that the smaller lighter pieces of gold are trapped within the other heavier magnetic metals. It is a great way of conventional thinking to make it so simple to find gold pockets, save alot of time and effort. This is why utube is so great. 👌👍🙌
I know the flour gold is trapped between particles of black sand and is picked up with it , the gold is non magnetc

LOL come on! there's plenty out here to find
Oh yea? I was just going to Greece to test new theory using black sand. Forget Colorado!
Any Ideas for South Africa? Greece is only Great for a holiday .
KleshGuitars Which rivers are ideal, please i got to know and than u very much
GOLD is in Many locations worldwide. of course, if your local river is the Zambezi or the Congo this may make things a bit more difficult. hippo mothers don't care for Prospectors, the Crocs on the other hand think they're delicious!
open the pen ?
I threw it away :(
Cool video! We went magnet fishing and it was so fun! I never thought to keep the magnetic dust that built up. Good idea!
Thanks Jayman I thought it would be a fun experiment, thanks for watching!

keep your black sand there is still gold in it. it will be flea poop and fly poop sized run it through a miller table to recover all the fines.😊
THanks, yes I keep all my black sands! Thanks for watching! atb -KG
KleshGuitars what about pieces of metal / potentiial meteorites?
where can a Miller table be found anymore
you can make a miller table for about 100 dollars sometimes cheaper if you get a good deal on a small electric pump
On your Black Sands...don't dump them out...take em home, get a small rock tumbler from Harbor Freight...prefer to dry it first...then to the rock tumbler...for about 3 hours...its loud...no need to put any ball bearings, it is coarse enough as it is...now my part...put in about a 1/2 pound of Mercury...seal the rock tumbler...when it is done, you will need a mercury retort...this dangerous...know which way the wind is blowing...in your retort use about a 1/8th tsp of baking soda...using your retort...separate the gold from the mercury via heat and Nitric Acid...send me your black sands...you are missing gold...I have recovered 4oz in 150 lbs of Black Sands...in one weekend...best recovery tool is called a Gold Cube ($389.00)
Check my video on "how to recover gold from black sand", I don't use the rock tumbler, and I use very small amount of mercury to protect the environment as much as possible. Thanks for the tip
Good way to get mercury poisoning
is this process still legal?
Pretty cool, really enjoying your channel:)

Hey look - you CAN NOT see ANY gold
Yea I apologize for that. This was one of my first "Gold" videos and I had no idea what I was doing as far as camera work. My more recent videos has much better footage, my apologies!
many times the gold is held within the black sand...hence the tumbler

use to use a wet vac ( gen & 100' cord from truck ) to vacuum out the pockets of visible gold / black sand at 11 mile canyon near the Springs come home and pan . Water was so cold it would cramp up hands when first trying to scoop it out manually.This was in the 80's ( gold at @$850 oz ) , now who knows ? Back then the rangers rarely patrolled .
Cool did you find some decent gold?
This was cool! Thank you for sharing this.
You realize gold and silver are not magnetic dont you?
Yes I do! Thanks for watching!
Gold isn't magnetic.
No it isn't but the wet magnetite around it is! Good observation Caleb Able! Thanks for watching! More videos to come! atb -KG
Caleb Able the gold is not magnetic. but as it travels through the magnetic field of a vary strong, rare earth magnets energy field it will accually push not pull as it passes directly through. i didnt beileve it untill i tried for myself. its really neat. all non ferous metals respond this way to very strong magnetic fields. checkout gold dyninium. or induction. try drop a rare earth. magnet down through the center of a copper pipe if you really wana blow your mind. but the idea behind the gold sticking to the magnet is that the heavys with any luck would drag along Au and become trapped when the blacksand arcs or jumps to the magnet.
KleshGuitars very interesting.
It *can* be magnetized or at least attracted. There is a book on something called a Master Magnet which is capable of attracting gold, copper and other metals. It is just complicated to build and requires an electromagnet. But it does appear to work. Here are 2 videos on it:
ua-cam.com/video/-9e7DBzdpQY/v-deo.html

Caleb Able you missed the entire point of what he was doing jackass.
Fascinating is the timely arrival of the go pro camera, we UA-cam followers have that new realm of photography available to learn of the surprises contained in the memory data storage of these beaut little cameras. You, Mr KleshGuitars, have taken the foresight to carry your camera wherever you go that may spring its surprising revelations onto the UA-cam site for inopportune others to salivate over. Thank you.

Very interesting, I've always done well with a pan. You have my attention...
I thought it would be a fun experiment, thanks
Awesome video! I can imagine taking all that black sand from that bucket and give it the good ol aqua regia acid bath putting gold in liquid state and see what gold precipitates back into solid state after it refining process
Good Idea Infinite Being! Thanks for watching!
Good luck!!!👍🏻
another interesting and enjoyable video.. To answer your question about the black sand , I always pan out the black sand I get from a magnet i use before I finish sluice and have found considerable flour gold trapped in the black sand when the magnet grabs it. Perhaps my magnet too strong. Also somebody out there was using the black sand caught by a similar magnet you are using as a gold trap effectiely, perhaps it was two toes
Brilliant idea and great experiment.

Cool, I use to live and work in Golden. Looks like he's on Lookout mountain, loved riding my motorcycle up there.

I’d love to see you do some more magnetic gold fishing, using some of the suggestions these guys have recommended!
I have a few more magnet fishing videos including the techniques suggested by commenters. Turns out my way was still the best.
Great idea! I'm gonna have to give that a try.
