Detectors Prior to Panning/Sluicing?


Recommended Posts

Does anyone use the their detector as a zone-location aid before working a pan/sluice/highbanker/drywasher?

 

Or are the nuggets stand-alone and not an indicator?

 

Thanks.

Yup, I have done it many times. Just one example a couple years ago, I picked 98 small nuggets of a hillside 75 feet above a creek with a Gold Bug 2. I should have dug two more - would have if I had known I was that near 100! Anyway, we set Chris and George up there with a highbanker and they got around three ounces of gold from the location.
