Overview
Gold Panning Pan Diameter 38 cm Depth 12 cm Deep Centre and Grooves Plastic Green For Beginners and Panning in Streams

This gold panning pan is a practical tool for anyone wanting to try searching for gold flakes in nature. The pan has a diameter of 38 cm, allowing you to scoop a larger amount of sand or fine gravel at once. It is made from durable plastic, which is lightweight, does not rust, and is easy to work with in water. The shape with a deep centre and sloping walls facilitates the separation of heavy particles from lighter material. The pan is suitable for beginners who are just starting with manual panning, as well as for more experienced prospectors.

On one part of the inner wall, there are stepped grooves that function as barriers during circular and tilting movements. Heavier particles, such as dark sand and gold flakes, get caught in them, while lighter sand and mud are gradually washed away by the water over the edge. The depth of the pan is 12 cm, which prevents material from spilling unnecessarily during use and allows the pan to hold a larger quantity of sample. The remaining part of the wall is smooth, so you can choose which side to wash the material from. The green colour creates a good contrast, making yellow gold flakes clearly visible.

When panning, scoop sand or gravel into the pan and submerge it below the surface. Remove larger stones by hand and mix the material to release clay and mud. Then move the pan in a circular and slightly tilting manner to allow heavy particles to settle at the bottom. Tilt the pan with the grooves forward and gradually wash away the lighter sand over the edge until only dark concentrate remains at the bottom. You can then examine this directly in the pan or transfer it to a bottle. After use, rinse the pan with clean water and allow it to air dry. The plastic does not require special care; just avoid storing the pan in direct sunlight for extended periods. If you are new to panning, practice the technique first at home in a bucket of water with some sand, where you can clearly see how the heavier particles settle. The pan is also suitable as an accessory for a metal detector when searching in river deposits.

If you are looking for a large and lightweight pan for manual gold panning, this model offers a good balance of size and ease of use. The combination of stepped grooves and a deep centre helps capture even small gold flakes. The 38 cm diameter pan holds enough material while still being comfortably manageable with both hands. Thanks to its plastic construction, you can easily carry it in a backpack on a trip to a stream, into the mountains, or to the beach. It is a suitable basic piece of equipment for beginner prospectors and for anyone wanting to try gold panning.
