Place that's easily accessible 3660 1
Started by roehoe72@yahoo.com
I'm looking for a place to take my blind brother. We have reconnected after a 6 year fall out, and in that time I have been bitten by the gold bug. I live near Sacramento, and would love to take him to a place to pan. I'd prefer a gpaa claim, as I'm a new member. But anywhere would be ok. I tried the bear river at the campground my first time, which I know is accessable, but I heard it's just fine gold, and I got skunked my first time there (which honestly was my first time prospecting). Any and...

Lode explorer in Montana 3219 2
Started by bitterrootvalleytaxi@gmail.com
Hello all! My name is Adam and i live here in Montana and just joined the GPAA. I'm not really that green as I have been prospecting since i was a kid. I have explored much of Montana but there's still so much to discover and explore here and near my area of Hamilton. My local area is what i would describe as the hole with no gold but surrounded by it, which literally couldn't be far from the truth! There are areas to prospect around here but usually you would have to go through other people'...

Arizona Prospecting 4128 8
Started by Stancalavan1964@gmail.com
Good evening, I bought a new Royal explorer drywasher and have been trying to dial it in on my back porch. I found a spot near Morristown that has pretty good fine gold. I brought a sample bucket home to play with. Dried it all out and my first run got 5 small specks. I ran the material again and found nothing. Decided to do a half a pan of the same material and found another 7 small specks that the drywasher missed. I am running the blower on idol so I know that I am not blowing the gold out....

Ore feeder build/design 3712 4
Started by offthewall747@gmail.com
Hey Guys I need some help here. I have built a 3.5' x 7.5' gold concentrating shaker table similar in design to the MBMM design and I have it working well. The one area that I am finding challenging is building an automatic ore feeder for the table. I feel that the table should be capable of processing about one ton an hour. I have a good selection of metal fabrication/ machining equipment for a build but I believe in the KISS principle in anything I build. I would have included a picture but ...

Anyone have any thoughts or experience with the Keene DW212V Drywasher. It's the small/medium size puffer, runs on crank manual or small motor. There's a used on in pretty good shape that I might have a lead on but don't know if it's worth looking into or a waste of time.

Thanks, guys, for your info. With Reget, I have tried everything, adjusting water and angle of wheel, still no luck. Table is level, etc. Will continue to pursue the fine gold. I don't care for basic panning figured either the DF or BB will give me faster results. Again, thanks guys.
