Whats the best way to recover flake and super fine gold?? Since going to the Arkansas River and finding lots of fine and flake gold, its like herding chickens to recover it. So was wondering how to recover it?? Any help would be great.

Nice Pic!!!
I have a few "pygmy chickens" from that river that need herding up!! I have ran mine through a spiral wheel and blue bowl, still I get a little when I pan out the cons even after a 2nd run through the process!!! I can get the "Fly" specks good on the first run but the "Nat" specks are hard buggers to get!!! |
