Most prospectors don't have a gold problem. They have an equipment problem, and nobody in this hobby wants to tell them that, because the people telling you what to buy are the people selling it. I've been working creeks for thirty-odd years. On this channel I take apart the gear — pans, sluices, classifiers, detectors, the cheap stuff and the expensive stuff — and I show you what actually holds gold and what quietly hands it back to the river. No sponsors. No affiliate links. Nothing I say here depends on you buying anything. Every video gives you something you can go test on Saturday with what you already own. New videos every week. Good luck out there, gold hunter.
