Gold gets to the river by a tributary or a shelf. Once you figure out which one you are chasing, you're on your way to a pay streak. By the looks of your pannings, I'd say it was a shelf.chunky quartz chipped off from erosion.

Looking forward to dowsing gold in front of you. The grade or amount of gold is gauged by pitting the energy of gravity against the energizing of the one-tenth ounce 9999 fine gold dowsing rod load that is attached on the elevated acetylene welding rod, which free spins on ball bearings. This precisely gauges the dowsing of all edges, exact center, depth buried with angle of deposition, and grading. The physics involved in dowsing have been reverse engineered and are the same physics as using a metal detector. Become a professional dowser by learning the reverse engineered physics involved in dowsing while practicing my book's dowsing lessons, Read: The Art of Dowsing - Separating Science from Superstition ($14.95), by Michael Fercik.

Great video, Jeff. OK, spotted some gold in some of the quartz. In the second image, the gold looks crystalized, which made me think it formed in voids in the quartz. The flat pieces of placer likely eroded from the quartz as flakes and deposited in the loose matrix. I suspect it was found around the area where the quartz strata was.

I have to drive an hour or so to even have a chance at finding gold. "Channeled Scablands" don't have any "fun" rocks unless you can get below a mile or two of basalt. I know a few have found traces of placer in some of the coulees, but rarely more than a few flecks. Cross the Columbia going North, and BAM! chance of finding just about any mineral or gemstone. Hour and a half north (if the ferry is running and you don't have to drive around) is Republic, which historically is a hot spot, and has a new big mine project started back up now. A hop skip and jump further and you run into Dan Hurd territory.

The gold was looking rough and had quartz attached to it so I'm guessing it is from when you were digging in the river bank, approximately 6:43 in to the video. If it was from the river it would probably be smoother, maybe more like flakes, and wouldn't have as much quartz attached.
