Here's a video of my final day gold prospecting in Wanlockhead, Scotland. The video shows the hole we worked and the dam we constructed to lower to water level in the hole, I then show the gold pickers I plucked out of my sluice, the hole filled in and levelled off (to leave the land as we found it) and some pics of the final picker count and total gold clean up. I used a mix of equipment on this trip including a 2 1/2" manual gold pump, a 4" manual gold pump, my DIY home made gold hog sluice and my supersluice. All of the gold pictured is just what I found and with my friend also working the hole too, you can probably double whats pictured to get an idea of what we pulled out.
