I'm interested to hear how you guys progressed in your alluvial prospecting hobby (I haven't hit the detectors yet).
Was it pan then sluice then highbanker or .. ?
I'm asking because I'm a year into this hobby now. I've started with pan, tried to build a sluice (failed) bought an angus mackirk sluice and having some fun. Now I'm thinking i need more material to get more gold. Exactly the same as what they say on the gold shows when they have a million dollar investment and want to process more!
I guess I'm enjoying what I do, it's good exercise and awesome being in the bush, so that's the main thing. But I wonder how others have progressed. I'm sorta thinking there is no end, we'll always be building and tweaking this or that.
