3 Replies and 13197 Views Tips’ for Gold Panning and Prospecting in Wyoming  13197  3 Started by  Timmelko@hotmail.com I contracted gold fever recently while on Vacation this July in Cheyenne Wyoming for Frontier Days. I stopped by a little store called Diggin’ It in Cheyenne where I purchased a basic panning starter kit and a bag of pay pay-dirt to try my luck. The guy was super nice and even tried to talk me out of buying a shovel from him that he mentioned I could get cheaper at Home Depot.  I did find several little bits of gold totaling .315 Grams. It was enough to get me hooked!   Unfortu...

6 Replies and 9681 Views The updated claim maps & listings...?  9681  6 Started by  glhewitt1@yahoo.com OK, New guy here, but it seems that there must be online GPAA claims listings somewhere and I am not finding that link on the website.  So, as a new guy, I think I can ask that question, where are the current GPAA claims listings online If there are none online, where does the new guy go for the most updated GPAA claim listings  Thank You in advance.

9 Replies and 8744 Views Why is there such a low level of Activity on the Forums?  8744  9 Started by  dixiedesertdigger@gmail.com It's dissappointing seeing so many members who have had sincere questions or made genuine offers of friendship to share their passion for Gold Prospecting to only go unanswered. We have more than 33,000 members registered here and yet such a low level of interaction and activity... It's sad! Anyways... I am pretty good at this kind of thing but very limited in knowledge. My experience is in metal detecting and mostly relic shooting up to this point. I am just now getting into Gold and nugget sho...

(Topic has multiple pages1 2 3 )
So I'm running into a issue of not being able to get the fines out of my concentrates.( I've been saving all concentrates). Quick google search I find a ton of gadgets and watzitdo's at various places, and of them worth it I saw some YouTube vids of a bearded fella classifying down the material a bunch of times then panning. Is that a better route Any insight would be helpful James

16 Replies and 16457 Views Frustrated NOOB  16457  16 Started by  byfert@yahoo.com OK I'm frustrating myself. At the moment I can only classify down to 30. When I'm panning I am seeing what I think is flour gold flowing out of my pan. I am using a Garret riffle pan. I get my concentrates very wet and swirl it around and when I look in the pan I see gold on top of the rest of the cons. When I'm panning I can watch the flakes move up the riffles and the rest of the cons stay in the pan. Could it be that what I'm seeing is mica It sure looks shiny yellow to me.  I guess I...

3 Replies and 8205 Views minecache.com  8205  3 Started by  chris@northpines.us  A friend told me about it. Seems it's an overlay for Google Earth that displays mining claims of all types. It also links to BLM's LR2000.  They have a free seven day trial and then it's a $35.00 per year per computer license. Has anybody heard of or used this I'm wondering if this might be a good investment. Thanks ------------------------------------- Chris
