[QUOTE="Wally69, post: 85011, member: 1916"] Good problem to have there Balx As a guess and to start conversation........mercury is lost out of prospectors pan or larger scale processor and rolls down stream to a natural riffle, flooding action rolls around sediments until it finds a partner. I am thinking you are working shallow crevices???? Alternatively, water pump rate was too high and some poor group of prospectors lost a heap of mercury and small gold by having a poorly designed gold recovery kit. I am thinking you are working gravel bars under this scenario??? Otherwise you have a great highbanker recovery technique and location and you are recovering both independently and the coating is fresh??? Can't think of anyway to determine which scenario is the right one. :rolleyes: [/QUOTE]
