Price increase of $1 due to rising gold prices, I kept it as low as I could for as long as I could. 

 

$33 paydirt. Yep you read that right.

 

For many years there has been a niggling problem that bit at my consciousness. And that is that there is no true "unsearched" paydirt. 

 

And for good reason. Who is going to pay money for a bag of dirt with no gold in it? Well I might have worked it out.

 

Paydirt is meant to do 3 things:

 

- Teach people, how to pan, what gold looks like, what black sand is, what stone is associated with gold etc.

 

- Entertain, give you the opportunity to pan gold from a different area, to experience another region or country, usually for much cheaper than going there.

 

- Access, there are people who either geographically, physically, mentally or financially have no way of going to a goldfield.

 

For these reasons paydirt exists.

 

But 99% of it is made up, even mine. Yes it's made from Reedy Creek tin, it contains Reedy Creek gold and stone. But I put it together to ensure you get what I've advertised. 

It's not a true reflection of what an average pan is like there. 

 

So I've been working on these, "Slobber Bags", thanks to Ferns influence.

 

These paydirts are true unsearched paydirt, I prospect for a spot, then set the sluice box up and do 2 to 3 runs, collecting the cons from each. These cons are cleaned and dried before being packed.

 

All of them have gold, I did multiple checks by test panning samples as I packed, but there is no minimum guarantee. 

 

What you are getting is a 100% authentic representative sample of cons that I would be worked in my area. This is a true accurate pan of gold.

 

Some of them are richer than others, some might have a bunch of gold in them. All I know was when I sluiced I did 100 shovels of 30 to 50 specks per shovel.

 

There is no minimum guarantee of gold, just that there will be some gold.

 

You will receive a bag of cons weighing around 80 grams. It will contain gold, black sands, iron stone, quartz, and other things found sluicing the creeks around Beechworth, Victoria. 

*So far people have told me that they have recovered anywhere between $40 and a few cents worth of gold*
