  • They Left All of This Gold Just Laying On The Ground!
    During the gold rush of the 1800s the sluice boxes and gold wash plants did not have the abilities to break apart clays. This means a lot of the bigger chunks of gold, that are dense enough to sink deep into the clays, are able to be found in creeks and rivers today where the old tailings piles are eroding.
    On this trip i look for gold on Nugget creek using my gold pan and sluice box and walk away with hundreds of dollars of gold and little pickers!

    Your front tooth is now made out of gold, but it must have a symbol on it.
    You must choose either:
    - pepper pig.
    - bluey.
