search for gold in the rivers… a true Fortune at your fingertips

To search for gold in the rivers, is must divide location work in two stages since the alluvial gold is usually found in very fine particles.
With the passage of years, centuries and millennia streams and rivers have transported thousands of tonnes of sediment which, for some, carrying gold… and much gold!.
Gold is a very heavy metal and always associated in alluvium with denser materials such as the famous black stones or pyrite, known in the jargon of the specialists as “black sand”.In the bed of any river there are a multitude of traps (kettles, cracks, sharp curves of the course of the River, etc) which have the effect of concentrating heavy such as particularly the pyrite and gold alluvial elements. We must not forget that the course of the rivers moves with the passing of the years and some also disappear, but their traces can be very well located by aerial photography or ground-based research methods.

 

The most convenient and effective method to find alluvial gold is first of all locate the banks of “black sand” or black sand in each trap are in large quantity and are much easier to find than gold.Specialists use to locate the black sand a magnetometer such as Mag 505 of stationary Metal Detector that provides excellent results.

 

Once localized concentrations of black sand can be a very quick review of floods using a cart. In some concentrations detected you will notice immediately presence of gold if this exists as its color is evident. Recovering gold from these floods is made by a very simple method using any material classified by density (4th, staircase, coco fibre, punt etc. etc.). This method can be located very quickly huge deposits of gold without the need to treat thousands of tons of sterile alluvia.

 

In several regions of the world such as in Brazil, Colombia, Peru, Guyana, Mexico, Zaire and also in some places in the United States and Canada gold can be found in nuggets of very good size, up to 300 grams and more, completely isolated since due to its volume the beds of the rivers moved by everything. It is always advisable also used a stationary with elliptical head above the alluvial land. With these methods, some of our prospectors make fortunes using our detection materials since they go directly to the point.
