PROSPECTING FOR GOLD BOOK

	How does gold get out there for us to pan?
	How does gold move to form rich pockets for panners?
	Is there new equipment to help recover gold?
	Am I doing things that reduce my gold recovery?

While standing in gold country, it helps to figure out where the gold should be. Knowing how gold forms, and especially how it moves, is very important to a successful day of panning, sluicing, dredging or nugget hunting with a detector.

Don't give up because the best looking spot you could find was cleaned out yesterday by some other lucky prospector. There is never just one good spot and gold concentrations are continually being moved by the forces of nature. Take many samples in different locations.

Not everything you have heard a hundred times is necessarily true or helpful.

• Gold does not float down the middle of the stream.
• A gold magnet might actually cause you to lose some of your gold.

Finding where the gold is can be almost as exciting as recovering it with a pan, sluice, dredge or detector.

One reader reported...."I bought your book yesterday. I read it before going to bed and I have read it two more times today. I will read it again before I go to bed tonight. Each time I read it, I learn something else."
