Glad to see that classifying gold pan, in mine, I drilled two small holes about where I hold them so I can clip them together, when I grab my gold pan I now grab my classifier, won't see me in the field without a classifier anymore 😂

It occurs to me that I might have a decent spot to check out. Chinese miners in the 1800's spent a couple decades working placer on a bench of flood sands along the Columbia River. I think a friend's folks' ranch covers that area, or if not similar bench material just up stream. If I bring bourbon, I can probably even borrow a backhoe...... Have to avoid the federal line though, they get a little pissy about prospecting along the river! Great vid. The strata and cobbles sorta rang the old bell and new pictures appeared.

Hello Jeff, Would you be saving time to dig as you were showing us, classify the material, and then use a metal detector to determine if what you are attempting to dry pan is worth the effort...before you use water to finish up this operation? How minute can the gold pieces be and yet be detected? Which detectors would be most useful in this application?
