    I'll have to try this. I live in a part of MN where several rivers cur through beds of slate interbedded with quartz intrusions a good gold environment. A lot of the till here is composed of the ground-down remains from this formation. A friend panned some small gold flakes from a nearby gravel pit so it's possible at my place.

    Whenever I see someone panning for gold it always kind of surprises me how the tiny little gold flakes are dense enough to not be washed out of the pan like silt with how hard people shake it around. Like, I know gold is very dense but somehow it's still so weird that such small flakes resist the force of all that water moving around. Pretty cool process!

    Ive found some up in the crow wing. It was so darn fine tho. I couldn't really figure a way at the time to snuff it up. I guess I should have just kept the material to experiment with. I don't know if itd be worth trying to smelt it or what.

    Just an idea on speeding up your classification to cons. A cordless drill in the bucket using a paint stirring bit. Stratification as the gold settles to bottom as the lighter materials come out at an angle. Look up jeff williams as he did it and do it how you find easier. Plenty of you have to use unlike us in the desert lol

    • @GlacialGoldHunter

    The Mississippi water level changes so frequently in Minneapolis which is probably the reason it didn’t seem to make much of a difference if you went deeper into the water
    When it fills up vs when it drys up it’s crazy how deep it can get and also how shallow it can get too

      @@anthonybrau7399 I have one, it's not that great. What works best here in MN with the sluice restrictions are gravity sluices. I use that Gold Rush Nugget Bucket for processing 5 gallon buckets of classified material. Allows me to move a lot of dirt very quickly & recovers that fine flour gold. Think every panner should have one & gets around the sluice laws.

I seen people on this side over here in Minnesota on Lake superior the guy didn't do that bad actually he had like a high banker and I calculatedhim and his five or six friends probably got about two or $250 worth of gold that day and gold is more pricey
