  • Spent a day on Tranquille river looking for another "Hot Spot" the last hot pocket I found had 1 gram of gold in 3 pans. There is always great gold on Tranquille, but finding those hot spots make for a very exciting trip.

    Hey you’re famous! Lol feels weird I bet... anyways I’m in Ontario and the laws may be different everywhere but is there a chance you could talk briefly about how to properly go about panning for gold? I just wanna do it like a hobby, spend a day walking a river and trying a few pans here and there. What are the things I should be aware of before just picking a random river and trying it? I like to do things the correct way so any advice would be greatly appreciated, if you have a video on this already I’d really appreciate it if I could get the link. Thanks and all the best Dan!

    Have you worked the Sombrero beach area?
    While camping there several free miners were panning and found gram size nuggets ( its where the hippies camp, just up river from the beach )
    Also the san Juan River at Port renfrew has iridium, palladium,platinum and gold, which can be found along the black sand banks around the bog/ wet grasslands.
    Only need to jar the black sand and send to surveyors office COD and they send you back a nice fat cheque...
