This Month's Special:
Idaho Bedrock Bonanza
Last year we were in Nevada and got a tip from an old prospector and his wife who was an assayer. They told us about a place in Idaho which had the richest gold laden dirt they had ever come across and we followed up on it. We found the spot and carried out 5-gallon buckets from the bedrock in 3 various parts of the gulch. We have a very limited supply of this special dirt so buy it now while you can.

| People buy gold mining concentrates from Megaton because they know what
they are getting. Most buy them to pan out the gold but others buy them to
test their mining equipment whether it is a trommel, highbanker, sluice,
dredge, recirculating sluice, mini sluice, blue bowl, shaker table, drywasher
or automatic panning wheel like the Desert Fox or Miner's Wheel. Regardless
of how you are going to get the gold out, you will be very pleased with what
is in our concentrates.
Placer gold occurs along many of the intermittent and ephemeral streams of arid regions in Arizona nd Southern California. In places like Rich Hill, a large reserve of placer gold exists but the lack of a permanent water supply for conventional placer mining operations requires the use of expensive dry or semidry concentrating methods to recover the gold. That is why the gold is still here. Panning is the last step and we save that for you. We are either at Rich Hill or in the Southern California goldfields every winter but we offer paydirt from other areas from time to time so stay tuned and put a little variety into your panning pleasure! To those of you who frequent the online prospecting forums, I am known as Dakota Slim and I prospect with my dog Nugget. We have given up many of the comforts most people enjoy but we are very happy in what we are doing. Here is a photo of the 14 pound Nugget at 8 weeks old. He is a bit bigger now.
We sell a lot of our paydirt in eBay. Click here to see our current ebay listings. We guarantee there is real natural gold in each bag of paydirt we sell. You may find some other other heavy minerals like magnetite, hematite and silver but Rich Hill is famous for gold and that is why we go there. The gold that drywashers find at Rich Hill typically ranges from fine gold and pickers to small nuggets but Rich Hill is famous for large nuggets and they too are still being found. I found this monster 57 gram nugget in March of 2007. This nugget is almost 2 ounces!
*Please note that it is unlikely you will find a nugget this big in a bag of our paydirt. This nugget would not fit through the screen on our drywasher but smaller ones do and we do not take anything out before we bag the concentrates and ship them to you.
The 3 Rich Hill nuggets pictured below would fit into our drywasher. The
2 bigger nuggets are about 1/3 of an ounce each and the smaller nugget is
2.5 grams!
Please also note that we only ship on Fridays because we are a long way from town. We only come to town once a week to take on supplies (Milkbones for Nugget!) and ship out all items which have been bought and paid for before then. We ship everything by Priority Mail! Gold panning is a great indoor or outdoor recreation and fun for young and old. It is fairly easy to learn how to pan for gold but we recommend that you classify your material first and then pan over something that will catch any gold you accidentally wash out of the pan. Any old tub or plastic container will catch the water, gravel and any gold you spill. Here is some of our eBay feedback... 1/8/08 This is so much fun!
