GOLD PANNING
GOLD PANNING IS FUN
Gold panning is a delightful outdoor recreation for young and old. Many happy families combine gold panning with a picnic by a beautiful stream. It is easy to learn how to pan for gold by following the proven step-by-step
gold panning instructions printed on your gold map. You are sure to get "gold fever!"
A good gift.
ALL YOU NEED
All you need to pan for gold is a shovel, an old dishpan or a $7 gold pan, a magnifying glass, a pair of tweezers and a small plastic vial in which to put your gold. Gold pans are found at hardware stores, metal detector stores, rock shops and hobby shops.
Big Ten's gold maps, (now under management by H & H Engineering), for gold prospecting, gold panning, treasure hunting and rockhounding are large size and large scale. They are printed in color on both sides of the sheet. Sheet size is 25 inches by 38 inches. The gold maps are folded to 4 1/4 inches by 9 1/2 inches. The scale is 1 to 250,000 (one inch = about 4 miles). Each gold prospecting and panning map is a composite of portions of several U.S. Geological Survey Topographic Map bases. For your benefit, contour lines are omitted so that details stand out clearly. You will see creeks, branches, dams, dry washes, mountains, canyons, national forests, secondary roads, trails, power lines, and rural schools and churches. You can tell the direction of flow of every little creek and branch. Each gold prospecting and panning map gives step-by step gold panning instructions. The scope of each gold prospecting and panning map is described on the pages that follow.
