[QUOTE="Occasional_panner, post: 305884, member: 7956"] That's a good question mate. From what I understand, not all that much if you are trying to capture very fine gold. Basically I believe that you are relying on the weight difference and viscosity difference for the gold to fall out of suspension. With dirty water the capture rate goes down. But I guess if it makes the difference between running or not, I would probably give it a go. Maybe take a video of what you are doing and ask again, it's difficult to say without seeing anything. I did that a little while ago myself. I found it disconcerting as I couldn't see any exchange as it was just too muddy, but I did bring home gold, so it still worked to some degree. How much was lost? I'll never know. [/QUOTE]
