First use a magnet. Then take a funnel and plug the stem just below the tapered side. In the stem. Add your concentrates and water and shake the funnel. The gold has nowhere to go but to the bottom. Scoop the jusk off the top. And repeat with more concentrates. Very simple , it's specific gravity at it's finest.

@@TGriffiths-ve6nw No water density. Salt increases the water density and MAY cause some of the black sand to sink slower. Alowing the much heavier gold to seperate. In short boyancy . The other thing it can do but takes time is oxidation of the black sands / create rust that mixes very well with water. But that works best with damp black sands rather than wet

I got back into prospecting and one thing my dad taught me is that gold sticks to Mercury. So throw a bunch of gold infused black sand in a rock tumbler along with some Mercury and run it for a period of time. When done you will have a button of Mercury and you strain it through a cheese cloth I believe or something similar and you will be left with gold.

the reason it works after it cools is because it starts to grow salt around the sulfides and make them easier to remove from the gold because the salt won't grow on the gold because the salt is super light it make the sulfides easier to remove

When tapping the pan, letting it rest against your chest defeats the purpose of walking the gold. Hand at 9, and tap at 12 and gold will pile at 10:30. Resting the pan at 6, just scatters it.

Removing the black sand from ultra fine gold is easy. Instead of trying to snuffer up the gold , tap the pan, get all the gold around the rim and then snuffers up the black sand. Ad you rinse down the sand, remove it instead of the gold. Keep tapping the pan to keep the gold at the rim

Hold your pan like your throwing a frisbee except of letting go bring it back hitting your other hand over and over again then slightly start lifting the edge of pan up on the side that’s hitting your hand. It’s sucks but it works better to isolate it from the sand better

Perhaps fill a catch pan with hot salt water to wash out. When you wash out in your tub you reintroduce normal water, and it gets diluted. Would love to see this done again this way, just to see if it works. I love these experiment type videos, great effort my man.

Find a novice gold prospector at best. But I have heard if you put a small magnet in the back of your PAN and one on the bottom of your PAN. It will collect the black sand. Some gold will get caught in the black sand but you can hope this helps

Hello Matt...I'm writing to you from Maine. I did some prospecting this past fall and believe I may have found huge deposits of fine gold. I am a newbie but what I did with zero stuff is "float" the gold out. Meaning I made a slurry from my concentrate and poured off the water and let it settle. Seemed to work. I'm still messing around with a small amount of mercury to prove it to myself and others. I'm still not sure but if I'm 👍 right...I have a new career come spring.

@@Matt_the_Miner Thank you, yes. I am very careful! Overly so...but I'm getting confusing results and it is making me doubt myself. The sparkle I see in the pan is gold but when I apply the mercury it isn't absorbing it it is only Turning the gold silver. I'm not sure what's happening.

@@tonyasiegler7177 does the gold look the same in sunlight as it does in the shadows? If not then it’s not gold. Another option would be to have it assayed. That normally cost between $45-75 per sample.

@@tonyasiegler7177 A little late to this party, but I've had the same issue panning in the mountains here in southern California. I thought I had hit the jackpot but it turned out to be mica. It settled heavier than black sand and looked just like gold, but flaked easily and floated around in the water when it was super fine. The resemblance is uncanny but my recommendation would be to use a blue bowl concentrator or something similar if you're able. I bought a bag of paydirt online to use the real gold as a reference when panning concentrates, and it's made my accuracy much better.

Roast your sulfides, then get a blue ball going about medium speed and sprinkle a teaspoon at a time. And the oxygen makes all the shiny float and you'll catch a lot of it. Will drop right in the center before it sinks

It's even smaller than you'd think (material size through a 70 mesh screen) because dividing an inch by 70 doesn't take into account the thickness of the screen wire. "70" mesh material is actually lots smaller than 1/70 of an inch. In very small sizes there's more wire than hole. Two-mesh - not so much: the wire-diameter-to-hole-size ratio is sooo much smaller in larger sizes.

Hi Matt! I live in the Pacific NW and BOY do we have tiny gold here! It is also ensconced in black sand. It is heavy and magnetic! If you will first remove the magnetic sand from your concentrates, that will be a lot less material that you will need to get off of your gold. Then you just need to learn a new panning technique from the one I see you using in this video. It is fine for the bigger stuff, but won't work for the small stuff in the heavy sand. There are a few different ones, but this is a link for the one that works best for me! Happy panning! kzbin.info/www/bejne/pX7WhYKnlp5sbrc

Using a gold wheel will remove the black sand and only gold will travel up the wheel and out the hole in the s center of the gold wheel into a stainless small bucket hanging from the gold wheel trap. a gold wheel uiss is battery powered , it sita sit`s in its own tub filled with warter and has its own spray nozzels attached to the wheel, This device can be used for final clean-up of your black sands, The cost of a used gold wheel may only cost you a couple of hundred bucks, or buy new,

Take a pre 82 copper penny shine with cleaner dip in mercury drop in front of gold pan and work materials back and forth fine gold will stick to penny including micro gold down to molecular level to recover simply turn penny on edge and snap down gold will all fly off due to centrifugal force remove amalgam return penny to pan and continue processing all material when you can’t see any detail on penny repeat mercury eat 2 1/2 times it’s weight of gold before it needs service

Ever go swimming in a salt lake, you float. The salty water is denser than fresh water. The salt combines with the water molecules, giving salt water more matter per cubic inch than fresh water when the same volume of water is compared. Therefore, your body will float more easily in the sea. The salt you add to the water, first, JUST use hot tap water & you can get hotter in a bowel in the microwave. Stir the salt, adding a teaspoon at a time, while constantly stirring until all salt has dissolved, then add & repeat, till the salt won't dissolve anymore. Now you have a saturated solution and pour the water into another container leave the undissolved salt behind. Let the salt water now cool to room temperature, you will see some salt will recrystallize because as the temperature goes down less salt stays in solution. Don't go outside in the cold with this, otherwise most of the salt will come back out of the solution as the temperature drops. I predict that the only thing that will happen is that every thing in your pan, in this saturated salt solution will become less heavy than being in fresh water, will be of no advantage. But who knows, we might be surprised!
