Fern, my white Boxer dog, is an accredited service dog under the 1992 DD act. She holds special access rights to be allowed to enter places most dogs cannot. This includes National Parks such as Chiltern Mt Piolet NP where Reedy Creek is located. Unless your dog is an accredited service animal they are not allowed to enter NP.
Check your local regulations, as each state and territory is different, before you travel into or though NP with your dog. Here is the Parks Victoria website for those of you wishing to read up on Victoria's laws 👉 www.parks.vic.gov.au/things-t...
Don't forget to season the pan before going to the creek
Hot sauce works great
I prefer to use just salt and pepper.
@@mysteryfinds simple but effective
Use fire on your plastic pans to season, right. Lol
Good call brother 🤙🏼
Priceless! Love the sweep over the Riffles trick.
Hi chris, appreciate the video, i asked a few weeks ago for a brush up video on panning, something i can always refer back to and practise! Very awesome mate 🤟🤟
Love the swirl - it's what I was taught so many years ago.
Dude you are the best. I’ve watched so many videos and none of them broke it down this simply. They didn’t help at all. Yours just made sense. I will be donating to your channel or subscribing or something to help you out. Love the videos. Keep up the good work man. Great stuff. Thank you 🙏
Thanks man! I can't wait to try panning for the first time this summer. I probably won't find any, but as a resident of Blackhawk, I have to try
Reedy creek tin makes learning to pan just about hard mode !
Those flakes are so fine they move with that black sand so easily.
Great place to learn.
Great video with heaps off info for us newbies greatly appreciated
very good video, well explained and it will work if followed exactly as you explained.
Well Done Chris!!!
Nice quick way to get cons on the creek. Good straight forward. Well done Chris 😁👍
thank you for this. Great information for somone like me just starting to look into panning
Bestest how to pan video
Iv'e seen Chris 👌👌.
I love going back to basics. Raw Vo-Gus Prospecting ❤👍🏻⚒️🏴
Great tips! I don't get out often but I've noticed I'm slowly getting better at it.
You have a great teaching mode Mr Chris
full of no nonsense sensible ideas to help anyone learn how to collect heavy stuff from any light substrate....gems ironstone shot gun pellets and if youre on the right bit of water ...gold
thanks for sharing
just to add the Garrett panning kit is available in the UK and so is the Minelab one but its not as easy to find
That big fluffy spider in your ear is the most Australian thing iv seen today,good work💪
Always good to see you are still teaching newbies, I have learnt so much from you and it has been invaluable. Thank you, cheers ❤ what you do
I love your channel u get to learn alot, and new stuff to
Amazing work 👏 👌 👍
Love your vids. Gotta try your techniques in my area
Another great UA-cam vid, thanks Chris.
Thanks for sharing Chris.
Great tip thanks! My 10yo son will love this, we just started prospecting. Have you ever had a crack at the Shoalhaven river in NSW?
I really enjoyed a faster way to pan. Thanks dude. Tell Fern hello.
I have always been a Garrett super sluice fan but since my eyesight has changed with older age i picked up an XP snakeskin 15 inch blue pan and i really like that pan, the more and more i use it the less im using the garrett i still usually use my Garrett for the first pan of the day but quickly revert to the Xp the rest of the time because its a lighter pan and the blue makes the gold stand out better at least for me out in the feild. At home i use green or black, weird i know lol.
I'm loving that hat microphone! And it's nice to see how panning works when you're upside down ;) (the most original and hilarious Australia joke, I know, I know...)
I'll be moving down under full time in the next few months, can't wait to check out the local creeks!
Back to basics, excellent!
Very well explained.
I figured if I was thorough enough, I could take a few shovels of dirt from my backyard and work them down to see if I could find some microscopic specks of gold. Just to practice panning before I actually get out there. I saw a lot of microscopic sparkly stuff but it's so small I have no idea whether it's gold or just tiny minerals lustering while wet under light. I think I might have a few more runs even if I don't find a spec of gold just to get the technique down. I always thought panning was easy but swirling that pan around and having the material move how you want it to really is tricky hehe.
Omg thank you so much , I can’t wait to try it
Hope you like it!
Great, great video! Thank you.
excellent advice on how to pan for beginners
I prob lost lots of gold when I first tried pannng
Great advice, thanks!
Thanks always learning.
It's a great guide if all the steps are done up to the panning off of the material it's pretty hard to lose gold panning even when your being fast ( Dan done a test on his panning and he did a bad panning pan and he still didn't lose the gold ) but it's better to work on the creek for sure and do the refining at home
Great tips Chris! Get that Gold Brother!! Señor Sweaty Wet Pants must be jealous of your panning skills. LOL 😅🤣
I too use the swirl method as for the batea pan. I do this with my minelab pan till I have about a cup of cons left. Nice and quick and works well on reedy creek. With testing of my tailings have found this method to be fast and very effective.
I use the small riffles with a side to side motion to remove all but the black sands. Oh and gold..
I feel like I’m having deja vu…. Have I seen this before?? Yes. did I watch it again anyway? YES did I comment again because I appreciate the work Chris has put into this video? YES. Will my comment and thumbs up help Chris’s video get more views ? YES. Ultimately leading to more income so he can continue posting great content that we all enjoy SO THUMBS UP AND COMMENT FOLKS and a share wouldn’t hurt either😬. Thanks for sharing see you on the next one 👍🏼👊🏼
This is a brand new video my dude. I only filmed it yesterday. However I appreciate the amazing support 🙏
@@VoGusProspecting I’m a patreon my dude 😬 that’s why I’ve seen it the ol sneaky peeky. and you’ll always have my support mate 👍🏼👊🏼
I suppose everyone is different and it can change with experience, but I only use one hand unless the pan is very heavy, I find it awkward to use two. I also only use the pan riffles for the first wash,
after that I go to the smooth side. I know this takes a lot of practice and you need to have a lot of
control of what you wash out, and I do the wash of material coming out the front with a side to
side motion without allowing anything from the bottom of the pan to move. With so much practice
it comes easily and I have tested everything that washes out, and I don’t lose anything.
Great education thanks !
I like my batea and small 3D printed finishing pan. When I use this "normal" pan, I still swirl it like batea first... Everybody has own method, all work...
We're prospecting again this weekend, love your work, pat your dog for me 🐾🐾
The deer that rolled into my backyard to nibble new leaves just as I clicked on this seemed to enjoy the video. Soon as it ended they wandered off. Wouldn't be surprised to see them come through with gold pans next time.
brilliant Chris, just what I needed as I just bought the Mine Lab beginners kit from BCF. Only prob is working out how to follow the steps while still knee-deep panning on the creek.
also wondering........ is there is an optimum size when using a sluice?
awesome video, thanks chris, have a good one, marc
Thanks, you too!
I do this when i go panning for small garnets, works wet or dry.
Nice tutorial, Probably should mention seasoning or scratching up the pan.
that was very good!
Liked, shared and commenting. Lovd it ! 5:46 cheers from upstate New York 🍻🤴🏻
Like ya read about 5:46
wow amazing results my friend, keep going. greetings my friend's hobby. 👍💪🤝🇮🇩
Hi Chris, I like the videos 😊
I have taken up the art of Prospecting earlier this year as a bit of therapy & Bush camping.
Just wondering what type of wireless microphone do you use off your cap ?
Are they any good ?

Thanx
Great tips
Great vid. Shame all 3 kits are unavailable at this time in the UK. 😞
cool vid, grads on 200k!! :)
Excellent
Question wouldn't classifying it also partially stratify the material?
What about using the small riffles ?
Salve guerreiro vo-gus 💎⛏️🇧🇷
excellent
Love you so much❤❤❤
Very cool
You rock !
@vo-gusprospecting what pan are you using in this video?
Thnx
How is moving a pan side to side hard?
Thanks for the lesson😊
You're welcome 😊
The little shimmy while rolling back the last bit of concentrates is an important part as well.. 🤔
the potato pan is a must.
I really want this panning kit.
Very cheap and easy to get online. Usually a 3 pan kit plus snuffer and other goodies included.
There are links in the description on where to buy various panning kits
Weirdly unskilled and skilled at the same time... I'm not a gold panner and am trying to learn. I do however have a lot of equipment because I'm recovering gold from electrical components. I think that panning properly will help immensely. At the moment I just get my gold, smelt, cut the gold off the smelt, re smelt, repeat until you have nice gold. I've been classifying and winnowing the residue and recovering more gold.. I definitely want to compare winnowing to panning
Dang it! I hit like before I watched the video.😅😊
How much do you collect on average per day?
Just the tip
Enjoyed the video ⚒️🇺🇸⛏️🕳️
Where can I get some expanded mesh for a sluice box ?
Steel supply places. Called walkway mesh
Man maybe one day I'll be able to try this
I hope so, its a very rewarding hobby
this is new :)
Am I the only one that heard the voice that said hi Chris?
yay
Was watching seasoning but? Where is it, no of but all tips help.
Locations please
Did I hear someone say hi Chris in the background?
Shake lift shake lift repeat
Every creek has its own types of gravel/clay/bedrock and sizes of gold, I learned on a fly poop area spending the whole week panning buckets that I dug, I then went to a chunky creek with that same panning method. I was quickly told by the old timers that I was ‘panning so dainty’ and I could get a bit more aggressive with it. Some creeks I’ve panned in were like kids play sand, no indicator minerals, gold is the indicator haha, when I found that out I was able to smash the pans out
Am I crazy and losing it or did I hear someone say "Hi Chris" somewhere around the 3:40 mark? I'm not even high....
That creek is haunted!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
two dozen... rofl... well, if I didn't have the carpet gremlins I would probably have gone by now. :)
200k!
Bring extra Mary Jane if you brought Dimitri or Lucy gets out of control on her peak.....-Geronimo
You forgot to teach the seasoning of the pan… ie- plastic pan- sand tha sh…. A metal pan- burn that sh
Good video mr vogus. Please use my technique. Is much better with those cheat pans. Make a whirlpool in the pan but be careful to keep the "eye" of the whirlpool a little ahead of the sides of the pan. All the concentrates and heavies come to the centre. The other shit goes over the side as you control the whirlpool. Also I like your technique too because I am a noob like you were one time.
Pan for gold at Rayo's number
howdy Boss I know you can get a hold of Dan her he does not answer or respond to any questions and comments I know he has a lot of followers I know you have a lot of followers to but I don’t know anyone better educated in nephrite jade from my area here in northern Washington state, very near where Dan gets his Jade my Jade actually comes from exactly where he’s getting his Jade. I have a large block of it. I would like him to tell me what it’s kind of worth. I have about 80 pounds what sucks is that on his site he doesn’t show what they look like with the light showing through it, otherwise I would just use his site for judging my Jade anyways you do great work. Thanks.
Well apparently you don’t pay much attention to content creators Chris here is on the complete opposite side of the world from Dan he’s probably heard of him but he’s never met him and probably has no way to contact him if I were you and I wanted to know what it looks like with light passing through it I’d go watch dans videos because there are at LEAST 10 videos that I remember of Dan explaining how to not only identify a worthwhile specimen but he also CUTS THEM, SHOWS WHAT THEY LOOK LIKE WITH A LIGHT BEHIND THEM AND EXPLAINS WHAT MAKES THEM VALUABLE. So stop being lazy DO YOUR RESEARCH, and enjoy the fruits of the knowledge you’ve gained by not taking the easy way out. Everything you need is in his posted content.
@@48thstateprospecting apparently you never watched a video with him pioneer poly and Dan heard on Dan Hertz claim hunting nuggets in British Columbia but I wouldn’t expect you to of been watching or paying attention. Child minded kids don’t pay attention. He actually got that tattoo on his neck in British Columbia when he was hanging out with them, you know maybe you weren’t paying attention though
@@48thstateprospecting and even if they did not meet and I'm wrong it doesn't matter he knows pioneer Pauly and pioneer Pauly live 3 hours from Dan and they do videos often together connections are everything when I have 100,000 followers on UA-cam cuz of connections you might be feeling stupid I have net Jason from mount Baker mining and metals I was on international television last month I have 70k followers on TikTok just srmtarted my UA-cam channel last year I have near 10k here and literally I'm new so think what you want I am not afraid to ask questions or learn more and real certification is better than amateur certified anyone can pretend they are know it all cuz they watch UA-cam but real folks seek thosevwith the knowledge and don't fake it. Again fo get a vasectomy
@@48thstateprospecting you’ve been making videos on UA-cam for three years and you have under 1000 followers God doesn’t love you does he see seeking knowledge is important maybe that’s the difference between me and you I’ve been making videos for barely over a year and I have almost 10,000 followers You have been making videos for three years and you have almost no followers.
@@48thstateprospecting you see because I actually talk to people I ask questions from real educated people I get in contact with them that’s why I was on international television the other day, and I will inshaaallah be on international television again I was actually request to be on international television tonight, but I work full-time at a Lumbermill five days a week 12 hours a day I couldn’t do it but soon I’ll be just going straight down to California where the studio is and doing it they’re in their studio. I don’t think you have that kind of a connection. I don’t think you have connections because you believe you know everything because you watch UA-cam
Running out of ideas?
