- HOW TO USE A GOLD PAN LIKE AN OLDTIMER
Gidday. Over the last 2 years, I have received many requests to upload an instructional video about Gold Panning. It's been a long time coming and for that I apologise. The technique described in this video is exactly as it was taught to me many years ago, by a fair-dinkum third generation Gold Miner. His technique had been passed down by his Grandfather. Up till that stage I had been panning for several years, with varying degrees of success; but my technique was very slow and time consuming. From the moment I saw this technique, my prospecting ways were revolutionised and I never looked back. I have broken this technique into 4 easy to understand stages and present it as such in this video. I must emphasise that this is not the only way to Pan; there are many ways to Pan and this is just one technique of many.

first clear instruction on panning ive come across. Explanation of physical process is very clear and understandable. Very well done.
Thanks for the feedback, much appreciated. Regards Aussie
Brilliant video. Thanks so much from a couple of newbs
Great info I have been watching your prospecting videos since 2016 and this is the first one I face come across where you can put a face to the voice behind the camera going to give it a go
I still Remember when you first taught me to pan, I was about 10 years old up in brissy when you first got me hooked on gold, the only thing that's changes since then if you have a bloody good beard now.
there you go hey...who knew?
Hey mate i still think you have the best technique ive seen, hope your all good i haven't seen you in a while. All the best hope to see you soon
Excellent video. Don't forget to have a quick look at the rocks and larger gravel in the classifier before you throw it away. Too many people miss the occasional nugget too large to fit through the 1/4 inch holes. It happens!
It does happen. Cheers, regards Aussie
Awesome work, cobber. I’ve got a pan and sometimes put a shovel load of dirt through it with an old lead weight, just to get practice. I’ll be giving your style a go as it’s completely different to mine. Thank you for the lesson!
Using lead is a great way to keep your technique honest.. i still occasionally do it. Cheers for the thumbs up. Regards Aussie
Learning something knew every time !
Glad to help out
buen video, como los videos que yo hago aqui en españa, un saludo
Again ABP you just nailed it with your presentation and explanation. Your videos give me the ability have more confidence and build more knowledge to implement. Thank for sharing!
Really glad you find the explanations and presentation beneficial mate. Cheers. Regards Aussie
@@AussieBlokeProspector I spent about 6 hours yesterday practicing this method on a creek with fine flood gold....I have always done the side to side action and not focusing on staying under the water line except to pan lighter material out. It worked great and I did in fact have more fine gold than normal and to be honest made the clean out easier because I was able to work out more black sand from the pan. Nice video I'm going to feature this on my channel if you don't mind.
@@OGProspecting really glad it proved useful to you. Don't mind at all. Cheers, Regards Aussie
Cheers Aussie, might make the weekend with the kids a bit more successful and fun. It'll make me look like I know what I'm doing anyway. Love your vids. 🍻
Glad to help out and glad you enjoy the vids. If your kids are anything like mine, they'll spend about 3 minutes panning and the rest of the day catching Yabbies and Tadpoles. Regards Aussie
Thanks Mate, I've learnt from You Tube how to pan, I'm definitely going to employ this method ... Cheers!!
Thanks mate. Practice makes perfect. All the best. Regards Aussie

@@AussieBlokeProspector
dingydate not really mate.. good for directing the gold into another container
Thanks again Bloke
You're welcome mate. Regards Aussie
Great instructional vid there John and extremely well presented. Very much enjoy your educational approach to all your prospecting vids and tips...keep them coming. Cheers Wal.
Thanks Wal.. always great to receive feedback like that from you. Appreciate your comments. Warm regards John
great vid
Your explanation worth 100s of video itself .. What is this location ? Are you in victoria? Can you reveal some gold panning locateion in victoria
This video was shot in NSW. For locations in Victoria, you can just about find gold in most creeks within the Golden Triangle mate. Just make sure you are allowed to be there first. All the best. Regards Aussie
Another great instructional video. My question is this. Do you have much black sand such as magnetite and hematite in Australia? We are inundated with black sand where I live, and it makes panning more difficult. It appears that you have a lot easier conditions to deal with than I do in the US, Colorado state. From what I've seen, it appears that you have mostly big gold there and very little black sand. This is just my observations from watching other prospecting videos in Australia. I love your videos by the way. Thanks for taking your time to provide valuable instructional videos such as this.
Thanks for the thumbs up mate. As for Black sands, there are many areas in Aus where it is VERY prolific. Regards Aussie
Thank you
You're welcome. Regards Aussie
Love the video mate no excuse now , would you think maybe a couple of small pieces of split shot in the pan would be a good way to practice , the Lady in charge of internal finances said no to the weeding ring. cheers mate.
Lol. I’m not surprised. Yep, lead shot is a great idea to keep your technique honest. Regards Aussie
Thanks John great instructional Video . Mate if you need a loan to buy some blades let me know lol although it does suit you .
Thanks Mate... lol....yep, she's a bit wild and woolly, but the missus would go crook at me it I trimmed it. regards John
Good on you Aussie Bloke. Cheers bud. I'll shoot you a message care your website.
Too easy mate....Look forward to hearing from you. regards Aussie
I wanna be an Aussie Bloke
Can I ask you what state you are in please I am in campbelltown nsw there There are creeks around But I don't think there's any gold bearing creeks With in under One and a 1/2 to 2 hours Drive away I would like to go somewhere close with my wife & kids because I have fu#@ my back do you or anyone know a place that is close if not all good I gring and bear the pain thank you
Once you cross the Blue Mountains.. you are in gold country mate. All the best. Regards Aussie
Hi, so nicely taught sir, sir I m from Pakistan, I live in area where lot of minerals are present, iron, clay, bauxite coal , I believe there will be gold in creeks and in mountains I need your help plz.
How may I help?
Sir, I will send you some pictures of dry creek of my area and you teach me how find gold for that I need you email id
I appreciate you enthusiasm to learn mate, but first I think you should watch all my videos related to your request..they and many other videos on UA-cam will probably answer many of your questions. Also, I don't mean to be rude, but I literally don't have the time to become your personal prospecting coach. Besides all that, I'm not in the habit off giving out my personal email address on a public forum such as this... I'm sure you can understand. Regards Aussie
It, OK sir. I understand your situation, I will watch all ur videos and will be in touch if I need any advice, so nice you. Your style of prospecting so simple and easy to understand keep on doing this great work.
Regards,
Mehdi Mustafa.
