Very good vid mate and very interesting ..I am looking to do a bit of panning my self when the Fields are in crop .I will follow your channel and check out more videos all the best on your next hunt
Thank you so much for the kind words there Tidy Treasure Hunter. I am sure you will be able to transfer your skills to gold panning in no time at all. It is a great hobby and it will take you to some fantastic places. All the best and let me know how you get on.
Costs are £30 from gamekeeper at house in Leadhills for Lowther estates best river Elvanfoot which has recorded largest amount of ounce nuggets. Main area spoilt by illegal dredging, My intrest is the massive quartz boulders (the gold in them makes themextra strong) As you got a licence it means you get gold and can sell it.Edinburgh jewellers were paying the goldmine £4500 a ounce. Id suggest you sell at Tescogoldonline for 90% of regular gold price.
Cheers buddy for sharing the info. I have met a fellow prospector up at the area you mentioned and was shown some of their collection. It was amazing. I guess it helps to be local and able to revisit some sections and carry on from where you left off until you get down to bedrock.
There's nothing like sluceing and gathering your thoughts. Hope you find lots of gold mate. The area your in looks exactly like my area here in the states. North Carolina.
Thanks for you comments Ray, I have noticed that many places across the pond are very similar to over here. I guess many millions of years ago the land was all connected together
I've got a similar bucket but I tend to do a 'pre-pan' with it... Give it a good old mix, stratify it and pan off the top before transfering to the pan.
Yes good tip Darren. I tend to keep adding water to the gravels whilst sluicing the material because it does help to keep it loose when pouring it on the top mat.
I am not an expert at all and am still learning about this hobby. Once you find some of the good stuff in your pan something happens to your brain which I can't explain lol. Hope you find some soon and stay tuned.
Hello Daniel, it's a great hobby that's for sure. They do gold panning workshops at Leadhills throughout the year buddy which might be worth looking into.
Hi Really enjoy the video can I ask you for the advise please ? Im based in UK and looking for some Panning Sluice (I'm the beginner) so if you can advise something for the begginer and drop me a link I will be very greatful. Regards
Another great video my friend 👍👍. You really nailed the feeling about goldpanning as a wonderful hobby 👌. Nice too see that you are still "on the gold " and the river you are in, looks super nice. Best of luck to you💪. Regards from 🇸🇪 V.G.V✌
Thanks for the comments. I love the great outdoors and sometimes being in a secluded spot with no one to bother you. I nearly got "Skunked" on this river - which should be almost impossible to do so. Stay tuned for more videos my friend.
On equipment try try get sewer worker waders there strong and will last for years. Dont be a oldtimer wally and think long handled shovels are any good,

Hello Andrew. You can get a permission from the Leadhills Estate and the estate that manages Wanlockhead to pan in their rivers, the same too at Baile an Or. Other locations seem to accept that it goes on but it is important to keep the places tidy when you leave.
Great work.keep it up pal. What is the best weight you have ever had in a single day and your biggest nugget? I'm thinking of trying it has I am mad on gold divers and gold rush. And 1 last thing is there gold in Wigan in the north west of England do you think? It's my home town and would love to start down the road if you thought there was a chance pal. Thanks buddy and good luck in the future pal
Hello Lee, It's not that much . Most people find a lot of gold and good gold too by going back to the same spot over several days and weeks. I go off the rule that after a few hours panning - if you can see it , you are doing ok. I have heard about people finding alluvial gold (specs) on the Wirral but I recommend you do some research around Anglezarke near Horwich . I think the Romans mined for lead in them parts.
Hi I have just come across your channel really enjoyed it do you need any licenses to go panning ? Good video how much in weight was there in the pan at the end of the video
Hello Terrence, l'm not sure how much gold there was. Typically about 0.4g. You don't need a licence to own a pan but I am not an expert on the ins and outs of this side of things.
Hey! Ive watched a lot of gold prospecting shows recently and I'm interested in panning as a hobby and to make a little money, just to cover the cost of a kit, have you got any tips and recommend gear for panning, I'm pretty young as well so I could use some pointers about where to mine. Thanks!
Hello Will. I would recommend you get a nice Garret gold panning kit which includes a classifier a small pan and a larger pan and a snuffer bottle. They are about £40 I think. Start off with that and build up your kit as you see fit and also in what direction you want to go with it. Practice panning with sand and a couple of small fishing weight to learn how to keep the heavy materials in the bottom of the pan. You might want a large rucksack too. Be mindful though that it is a dangerous hobby with fast flowing water and slippery rocks where there is little or no phone signal. Always take a first aid kit.Good luck buddy
Most sessions I go on actually start quite late in the day. If was an early bird like a lot of the prospectors I meet then I would probably find double the amount of gold. I don't put a time limit on things though but once I'm there I will stay until it goes dark. Good luck John.
Hello mate excellent tips and advice today mate and lovelu gold who seys you need a machine that set up was a machine lol only of i could do this at baile an or with the sluicing cant wait till next year to properly test my new permission left it late this year thanks for sharing gl&hh Thor 😊
Cheers Thors T. I have a few videos to come after a few recent trips to the secret river and a wee break. I will catch up on your channel now I have some good internet speed again.
You need to do your research and get out there. Prospecting is the key to finding potential new places where maybe gold isn't meant to be . Be safe, have fun, get a bit wet and take loads of food because you will get hungry. Thanks for dropping by.
No worries.There could be gold anywhere. It may be in your local area but not be native to the geology. The ice age has a lot to answer for. There are rocks near my home town which have a volcanic origin and I live in a Gritstone and coal area.
That's a good question and due to the amounts that I find, which are so tiny, I tend to just use the footage of my exploits for film making as it's a fascinating subject. I am not in it for any commercial gain and have been known to throw it back to the river gods.
@@MrDazP1adv3ntures Thanks for quick reply , I do alot of beach detecting for gold do quite well , but always loved the countryside , so I'd find this very relaxing even if didn't find much lol
There's a lot in the river, I think it has come from the old mine either from an accident or from their methods. I just hope that panners don't burn it off in the area after a session at the river. Who ever is down wind will unknowingly be poisoned .
@@MrDazP1adv3ntures alot of that Hg came from late 80s early 90s several ppl decided to try their luck with easy obtainable retorted Hg, they just threw it in at the old mill (where the 2 meet). going back and checking when it became amalgamated. Even overheard one guy tell another to just burn it off on your cooker when ya get home.....There have been quite a few cyanide spills too.
I don`t mean to be disrespectful of how you are sluicing but should it not be one inch drop for every foot the sluice is ? It looks to me from the video that they are going a little shallow at the exit end . I don`t know what the drop in metric is
Thanks for the comments. I tend to focus on getting the sluices level from left to right and then look at the flow going through the sluice. I find with these 2 sluices that you need to work with them and tweek them to get the best looking exchange in the riffles. The green sluice can be a bit tricky if it isn't set up just right as it won't clear the material quick enough off the top mat or, it will clog up at the end. They do how ever both catch super fine gold and work with high or steady flow rates. At the end of the day you get to know what will work with your particular set ups.
@@MrDazP1adv3ntures Big mining corporations have been given permission to dig deep long trenches all over the Welsh countryside, but as soon as a man with a pan shows up they kick up a big fuss and get the law his case. I’m sure the mining companies have lobbied politicians to bend the law in their favour and to protect their monopoly. It’s all under the pretence of protecting the environment.
@@parmorama my thoughts exactly. They can literally dig a hole 10ft down by 40 metres and that's ok. We can't even use a tablespoon and scratch the dirt of a rock !
Hi, I've searched the internet for your aluminium sluice with the green mat, could not find it,if you have the link can you please send it to me. Thank you George

Thanks for your reply I liked and subscribed your video. after watching i want to give it a go but if only there was a river that has gold in near Lincolnshire.

Hi, I don't do anything with the gold. I don't weigh it or value it either because there isn't really enough to make it worth while . It is simply a great hobby and you never know what will turn up in the pan. Thanks for the comments though and the interest it is much appreciated. If you have any mates who are keen cyclist and gold prospectors then please share lol.
Hello FreezinFury I guess if you were to mine on any land you would need a license . On this particular river the agencies tend to accept that recreational panning is a tradition that has gone on for many years without a permission.
I use the same G. pan kit, but after I bought the G. super sluice, all the other stay at home. Amazing large bottom and deep rifles, super quick cleaning, I made a contraption in L shape fixed the s. sluice to the bottom and got a kind of a "rocker", wich I place at my side just by the surface, and const. ading material and shake( I keep going until is half full with black sand). Till this moment I ad no prob. but in some places I may have, if people think Im "sluicing". So I just show them the pan.
Do you need any special permissions to do this in UK? I read that gold mining isn't aloud as it will ruin the environment being worked on and the gold its all owned by the Crown or something like that.
Wish it was there will try coming up end of September but all depends on work load, come down Cornwall I will take you too a place where you get the most you’ve ever had in a day, text me you got me number mate.
Hi Stuart. I wrote your number on a piece of paper down at the caravan whilst on me jollies so hope I can find where I put it lol. Yes Cornwall would be a great place to get down to and make a nice video. I spent year after year from March to September in Cornwall until recently. We stayed near Goonhavern and hammered it on family holidays. So many great memories and happy times. I do miss the place. Loved it when I cycled there last year on my John o' groats to Land's end bike ride.
Going through your old videos then I'm sure I know what am doing lol. Here's hoping for when I go. Iv got all the gear but no idea 🤞🤞🤞
It's the excitement of the unknowing Simon and the thrill of the adventure. Don't forget your butties too.

How much do you get for your gold? And where do you sell it? I’m not going to start gold digging, I’ll just watch the videos. Should be on tv
Hi, I don't do anything with the gold. I don't weigh it or value it either because there isn't really enough to make it worth while . It is simply a great hobby and you never know what will turn up in the pan. Thanks for the comments though and the interest it is much appreciated. If you have any mates who are keen cyclist and gold prospectors then please share lol.
great vid. looks like you have a good day!
Not a bad day out and the dog had a good walk too plus an afternoon nap
i am going try this one day great fun many thanks subbed
Haha cheers, stay tuned for season 4 starting soon , amongst other things I get up too.
Do you need permission or a licence to mine on that land
Hello FreezinFury I guess if you were to mine on any land you would need a license . On this particular river the agencies tend to accept that recreational panning is a tradition that has gone on for many years without a permission.
cheers mate ! great video lovely area
Cheers. It's great place to walk around and explore for sure.
Be down there myself this week to get my fix.... been waaaay to long. Save some for me ;)
Be safe Andy. The river was very high a few days ago. I am sure you will find some of the good stuff too. We all need that fix - totally agree.
Andy Hastings can you give me your phone
have you ever mined for gold in the forest of dean?
I haven't but have heard it is another place in the UK to look for the good stuff. Have you had any success pal?
never been gold mining yet, that will probably be my first place!
Well good luck if you do and let us know what you find. Cheers .
Thks
👍
great job brother!
Thanks for the comment. I never find loads of gold but always try to make it a worth while video to watch. Stay tuned buddy.
I use the same G. pan kit, but after I bought the G. super sluice, all the other stay at home. Amazing large bottom and deep rifles, super quick cleaning, I made a contraption in L shape fixed the s. sluice to the bottom and got a kind of a "rocker", wich I place at my side just by the surface, and const. ading material and shake( I keep going until is half full with black sand).
Till this moment I ad no prob. but in some places I may have, if people think Im "sluicing". So I just show them the pan.
Sounds like you have a good set up there buddy. I take it you are sluicing in a location where they prefer you to pan only.
great vid good tips mate
Thanks Todtiger.BTW I just cycled through Tod tonight and it was a bit breezy to say the least.
thanks for sharing
Cheers 10000000trs for watching stay tuned
Thanks for the sub check this link out ua-cam.com/video/0qwXbJfd6pc/v-deo.html
Sorry wrong link ua-cam.com/video/FKHdlySyon0/v-deo.html this might be interesting
Do you need any special permissions to do this in UK? I read that gold mining isn't aloud as it will ruin the environment being worked on and the gold its all owned by the Crown or something like that.
Hello, Some places seem to have been ok with it going on for years Lloyd and other places you can get permits for the day to have a pan in the water.
Good very good
Thanks
Yeah relaxing as fk daz, totally agree
Nice one Ben
Tidy cam upgrade dude
Cheers Ben
Proper food today!!!!
Mmmmm.. chicken and tomato
Wish it was there will try coming up end of September but all depends on work load, come down Cornwall I will take you too a place where you get the most you’ve ever had in a day, text me you got me number mate.
Hi Stuart. I wrote your number on a piece of paper down at the caravan whilst on me jollies so hope I can find where I put it lol. Yes Cornwall would be a great place to get down to and make a nice video. I spent year after year from March to September in Cornwall until recently. We stayed near Goonhavern and hammered it on family holidays. So many great memories and happy times. I do miss the place. Loved it when I cycled there last year on my John o' groats to Land's end bike ride.
