[QUOTE="Ag Man, post: 6369, member: 113"] Hey Matt, Pan, sieve & snufferbottle. A bucket, some basic digging tools - shovel, trowel, spoon, brush & something to scratch crevices out with. Any pan will work, some better than others. Everyone has their own preference, but most recon(including myself) that you can't go too wrong with a Garrett Supersluice pan. The garrett pans are fast(correction - you can pan fast with them) & fairly difficult to loose gold with - with little practice. I use a bucket sieve. 1/2" mesh - any smaller & it's too easy to loose gold I recon. I got one piece of gold that would struggle to go thru anything smaller & could easily have been overlooked in a smaller mesh sieve.
