Using The Gold Magic Dry:
If possible you should always use your Gold Magic in water. Gold has about a 5 to 1
specic gravity advantage over most material in water. However the Gold Magic works
very well with dry material. Keep in mind that the material must be dry to run it dry. If
you have damp material you need to run it in a wet process.
Place your Gold Magic® as near as possible to the material you want to process. Set the
pan at approximately a 45 degree angle and leave some area below the pan for remov-
ing the material falling from the pan. With a shovel/scoop, feed the pan with a steady
ow of material into the outside rifes at the 3 to 5 o’clock position on the face of the
pan. The gold quickly passes through the tumbling sand and gravel to settle against the
rife. The gold begins moving towards the concentration cup. When working dry, feed
your Gold Magic® a little slower to allow time for the ne gold to process through the
pan. If the gravel balls up in your hand, it is too damp to process dry. The material must
tumble freely. You should be able to process 5 gal. of material in 30 minutes. After 5 to
10 minutes, remove the concentration cup and dump the contents into a small gold pan
or tray. Check the concentrates with a 30X power scope set directly on top of the sand. If
you see some gold, dump the concentrate into your collection container and continue to
process. If you do not see any gold, move to the next location. Your chances of nding
gold improve greatly if you move frequently.
