Gold Panning!

Hi Friends,

I get lots of promotional emails but one recently caught my eye - good deals on gold paydirt from GoldBay - so I decided to just get a little.

I ordered a couple of paydirt bags - a traditional one with some chunky gold, and an “almost impossible to pan” one from Nome, Alaska.

The bonus is that I got to pan the gold, so it added to the fun!

Here is the traditional gold bag, which contained 1 gram:

Here is the impossible-to-pan gold, which also contained 1 gram:

The almost impossible to pan dirt was pretty difficult, but I got it done. It contained lots of black sand and heavies. I kept panning it into a different pan to run again, and had to go through it 4 times before I had gotten all the gold.

Fun times and a little gold to add to the stockpile. :)

Thanks for coming by,
Brian
