    Just after Dan starts to wash his last pan you can see three or four fish swim right by his pan! So cool.

    It's great to see you and Dana out and about together panning. I have seen her when she helps you collect the ocean picture stone and a few other collecting rocks, but never panning.
    You really should make more of an effort to take her with you whenever she wants to go. Life is too short to not be spending every second you can with the love of your life.

    a few buckets of water and an aquarium water filter could help save trips down to the water. Keeps a clear water supply for panning. plus you would never have to worry about dumping a pan over if you fall. would save time as well.

    Dan & Dayna! My partner Alia and I had a staycation this week and spent a day panning along a tributary of the Potomac River (where there is historic gold mining). We did find a lot of specs of gold, but our weigh-in was 0.000g. Fly poop just doesn't add up. Glad you had a more substantive day together! 🙂

    Hello Dan & Dayna
    Very nice to see the two of you out enjoying nature and being able to spend some time together.
    Dan when you showed how low the river had dropped I was amazed.
    Then it made sense that fishermen would be on the water.
    The low water level tends to condense the fish population, thus better chances of catching the Big one.
    Any day you can take gold home is a good one in my book.
    Take Care

      I've also got 5,250 grams of heavies . The gold is little tiny. Balls of gold that you can't see with the naked eye. I live in Manitou springs Colorado. I left north Georgia in may I do believe?
      I'm using primitive tools in primitive conditions. Pantyhose and home stereo speaker covers. I can't get this stuff separated? I'm been doing this everyday for the past 5 months Dan.
      I've yet to make one cent. It's all out of Cripple Creek gold ore. Have a wonderful evening Dan.

    At some point I'll buy a detector (probably the Fisher Labs Gold Bug Pro), but I need to find some *$GOLD$* first, and this purchase seems like a good place to start for a 'newbie'.

  • @mikeblair2594
    @mikeblair2594 Рік тому

    Dan, at 17:46 there looks like a piece of sponge gold with a piece of green "malachite?" or some such semiprecious stone that appears to be a part of it. I'm not even sure that it's sponge gold.
    My interpretation of sponge gold is gold that was collected with mercury and has had the mercury burned off. We find a lot of pieces of gold like that up in the Ochoco country in eastern Oregon.
    Not only has the Ochoco had quite a rush, but most of the Cinnabar in the late nineteenth century was mined out of the Ochoco.
    At least that's what that piece of gold looks like to me. However, I've been wrong quite often in my lifetime and quite probably am again.

    • @mikeblair2594
      @mikeblair2594 Рік тому

      Its funny that i commented as soon as I saw the sponge gold and at the end Dan mentions the same piece and confirms my suspicion. I love finding sponge gold, though it makes me sad because it shows really how much mercury is in our rivers. I'd love to find a cost effective way to rid the rivers of mercury. Gold panning just ain't gonna cut it. But props to snipers like Pauly who always grab what they see. Cheers

  • @Alondro77
    @Alondro77 Рік тому +1

    I actually always pan in a big cat litter tub. It's just the right size. The ancient glacial moraine I'm prospecting has no good streams near it, and the material is quite mineral-rich, so I take buckets of it home and pan it there, saving all the sorted sediments for gravel, garden soil, and potting soil.
