@@kam9305 with the chance of getting lucky and possibly getting thousands, id say its a pretty fair rate for just being out in nature and working. Always better than not getting anything
You're actually suppose to flag the location you found your first small nuggets at, and keep digging around that area. The larger the gold and more abundant it gets, the closer you get to finding a vein. If you go out too far and they get smaller, you know to get back toward your first flag. You keep doing this process until you find yourself a nice large vein to mine from.
In Alaska I started out finding at least 3 grams of fine gold a day in a pan, then I got a sluice box and started finding 15-20 grams a day, then I got a detector and started finding 2-3 ounces a day. Saving up for the heavy equipment.
Yup he was wrong about the bedrock and he meant to say a gram is around $65 not an ounce. Definitely a rookie to gold panning 😂. But im not busting his balls, its all in good fun
Grass is a plant with narrow leaves growing from the base. A common kind of grass is used to cover the ground in places such as lawns and parks. Grass is usually the colour ‘green’. Grasses are monocotyledon herbaceous plants. The grasses include the "grass" of the family Poaceae. This family is also called Gramineae. The family also include some of the sedges (Cyperaceae) and the rushes (Juncaceae).[1] These three families are not closely related but all of them belong to clades in the order Poales. They are similar adaptations to a common life-style. The true grasses include cereals, bamboo and the grasses of lawns (turf) and grassland. Uses for graminoids include food (as grain, sprouted grain, shoots or rhizomes), drink (beer, whisky), pasture for livestock, thatching thatch, paper, fuel, clothing, insulation, construction, sports turf, basket weaving and many others. Many grasses are short, but some grasses can grow very tall. Bamboo is a grass that grows very tall. Plants from the grass family can grow in many places and make grasslands. They can also be found in areas that are very cold or very dry. There are several other plants that look similar but are not members of the grass family. They may also be called grass. These plants include rushes, reeds, papyrus and water chestnut. Seagrass is a monocot in the order Alismatales. Grasses are an important food for many animals, such as deer, buffalo, cattle, mice, grasshoppers, caterpillars and many other grazers (herbivores). Unlike other plants, grasses grow from the bottom, so when animals eat grass they usually do not destroy the part that grows.[2] This is a part of why the plants are successful. Without grass, soil may wash away into rivers (erosion).
But if you kept on doing it you might have hit it big.. in the 80's I spent about 6 weeks panning for gold in the same area. For the first couple of weeks I only made a few hundred dollars.. by the time I left I had almost $840,000 worth of gold. Pretty good for 6 weeks of work.
