Panning for gold
Active selection in cart:
Caption | The picture shows a man "panning". Panning is the simplest process for extracting gold from an alluvial deposit, where gold is mixed with sand and gravel in a stream bed. The mineral mixture is agitated in a pan with water. Because gold is heavier than other minerals, it sinks to the bottom. |
