Gold panning experiments on a snowy day in Michigan’s UP
We have an assortment of gold panning equipment on hand, ready to pack into the camper for our Arizona expedition. What we don’t have is a lot of panning experience. – This is a good thing.
When we found the Gold Claw YouTube presentation by Klint Washburn, Founder and CEO of Gold Claw, we were attracted to the apparent ease of use of the products. We proceeded to download other videos, real-life gold panning experiences with the Gold Claw. And an idea grew…
On the return of Yooper Winter after a brief but enjoyable “summer” in April, Ken hauled the tub to the living room & began to do some practice panning. First, the Gold Claw production model. Next, their standard pan. Then the “pocket” Gold Claw. – GREAT!
And because he was intrigued with the science of the new technique, Ken experimented with his traditional pans to see if it would cut down on the energetic, time-consuming methods of gold concentrating & separating from black sands.
Wow. We will post videos of our experiments soon on the Copperland YouTube channel.
