17:37 - The lawmakers in Australia believe that using a hand pump with a slim hose to suck out a crack ('dredging') is environmentally damaging. So instead you are expected to smash rocks up with a crowbar. And that's not damaging the environment. This is a textbook example of why we must be vocal in opposing ridiculous laws that make no sense. Like river sluicing being okay (blowing material from the bank into the waterway, i.e. 'hydraulic erosion') yet high banking being 'environmentally damaging' (where you're able to blow material back into where you dug it out of and allow the water to clean up through sediment pond methods returning to the waterway pretty clean). Speak up, be heard. Oppose dumb laws, and if you're brave, cop the fine and argue it in court that the legislation fails in doing what it's intent was when evaluated in a purposive manner. Or better yet work around the legislation, a high banker cannot be a high banker if it's not high or not on the bank, right? No, your worship, that's a power headed long tom!

Just wondering whether it would be more efficient to put your pan underwater, next to the spot ur pumping out so you have the minimal travel between sucking and dumping? Minimizing the drop out from swinging the pump from spot to pan. Use a rock to weigh down the pan of course.
@VoGusProspecting6 жыл бұрын
I get asked this a tone. Short answer is, so long as the pump has good baffles in it you won't lose gold. I always try to have the catch container as close as possible but you do get a reasonable distance before everything comes out.
