Look, you think you have panning skills. And, perhaps you do.

It was with this in mind that I made these.

Think of this not as a paydirt for fun but a small jar of soil from hell. Satan himself has tread on the dirt in these jars to guarantee that when your on your 3rd pass at panning down the black sand you'll question just how you managed to miss that much gold... again.

Guaranteed to contain a minimum of 1 gram of gold mined in Reedy Creek, Victoria. Plus additional unsearched gold from the cons that make up the paydirt. 

Reedy Creek is a famous gold creek in the north east of Victoria Australia, producing hundreds of thousands of ounces of gold and later mined for tin.

It was first hand panned and ground sluiced in 1851 and hydrologically and bucket line dredged mined into the 1900s.

Gold is still found there today along its length of over 26km in vast quantities. It is possible to pan over an ounce in a day in the right spots.

Reedy creek gold tests on average 98.5-99.7% pure out of the ground. Making it some of the most pure natural gold on earth.

the black sands found in this paydirt are made of Cassiterite, tin ore, and are non magnetic. Up to 70% pure, if you smelt the black sand you'll recover pure tin valed at $27k per ton! You will also see tiny tin crystals and gemstones mixed into the black sands.

From my records the highest amount recovered in this series of jars was 2.11 grams the lowest was 1.04 grams. This highly depends on what natural gold occurs in our unsearched pay that out 1 gram is added to. There are no gauntees of more than 1 gram.

The dirt averages around 300 grams per container. This depends on the quantities of black sands. It may be 270g to 350g in variance.

This is more than enough to keep you busy for an hour if youre experienced or days if youre just starting out.

Shipping from Australia to the outside world is expensive. Insurance, tracking, postage and packaging on avarage costs $32aud to the USA and $46aud to Europe. I actually cover some of the costs from my profit margins to help cover these costs. But they are still expensive. 

Good luck 👍

What the E.L.F.!?!?

Chris... holy crap, man! Reedy Creek gold is an entirely different metal animal! It moves with the black sand... and that doesn't like to settle! It's flatter than Shaz! It's flatter than Jimmy's legs! It's like Reedy Creek muscles decided to grow arms just for the sake of creating tiny hammers, that magically disappear when you find them, to flatten every piece of gold in that river to almost foil thin and weird sail shapes that catch the water. The "War Crime" is just nutty! I got essentially a brick of Australian black sand and a little bit of clay dust... assuming that's to hold it together for safe shipping. I made a couple videos about them at https://youtube.com/@mikeyachk?si=3dX60F_67c3ljbGt

By the way, Chris, pretty sure that customs broke the 1/4 gram of gold and cassiterite brick just to check for illegal camels.

First purchase

Have watched heaps of your videos and loved them. Finally made a purchase. I got a 1 gram paydirt bag. Have recovered 1 gram. Also got a couple of slobber bags for my kids which had a bit in them and kept them busy. Also some sparkle bags and a mini pan for weigh ups. Well packaged and better than advertised. Every bit as good as your videos. Thanks mate

Excited

I ordered a couple of different size pay dirt in hopes of panning better and using my clean up buddy to test. The gold where I am at in SC is flat flakes that float and move so panning is awful. Not to mention being disabled makes my brain hurt. I can't wait to get my order. Chris has been awesome and I can't get enough of his channel.
