Its interesting watching the various ways that people pan for gold. Whilst the process is pretty much the same, the techniques can vary. One thing that is common though is the need to stratify before washing off the material.
Now, I have seen how quickly river gold drops when inverting my vial. Its as though theres no resistance whatsoever. So I can understand that the gold would settle at the bottom of the pan quite rapidly if the stratification is done correctly. With that in mind, why do we need to stratify repeatedly? Why not stratify once and just wash most of the material out in one go?
