[QUOTE="SCC, post: 408899, member: 12440"] Found some quartz diorite looking rock in a creek that contained alot of iron pyrite and what looked to be gold, crushed a couple pounds up classified and panned the smaller stuff with a stainless dog bowl...(never panned in my life :lol: ), what i though was stubborn sand that wouldnt get out might actually be gold, no matter how hard i tried it always stayed behind the sand, its very very tiny and sits below the black sand so itook a zoomed in pic of it and looks like gold also when you pour it out it stays behind the black sand as it leaves the bowl...gold or not gold? If gold how does a newby seperate it, or is it not worth it at this qty?
