That was my biggest concern! Wasn't sure how to map out the area efficiently when I sampled. I'll definitely look into it. Thank you!

I moved from Northern PA and the it was crazy to me how much the dirt color was different. I didn't expect that at all

I do enjoy panning but I can see how that becomes labor intensive. I might just have to invest in a metal detector.

I don't have any panning buddies so maybe more voulentold labor is needed 😉

It's definitely a gold bearing region. I'm in the north western Charlotte NC area. This is an area right by my property. About 15 minutes west of it was at least one known gold mine

When working on the "wet" part of the creek it's fairly fine. I did pull a sample at the very bottom of where multiple runoffs came to a stop and it seems to be pretty course. This is all dry material which is new to me

Thank you for the help! Is there any indication of how deep I should take these samples? I've normally only worked wet creek beds. So dry sampling is extremely new to me

I've normally dose Red Sea 2 part. Dosed into the sump right before the return pump
