The Gold Claw 12" gold pan cuts your panning time in half with its unique 5-riffle system that captures fine gold faster than traditional pans. Instead of endless swirling motions, you'll shake and tilt to let the specialized riffle geometry do the work.
Key Features
- 5 different riffle designs - Each targets different gold particle sizes for maximum recovery
- Fast gold recovery system - Shake and tilt method reduces processing time significantly
- Beginner-friendly design - Works effectively without years of panning experience
- Durable Tritan plastic - Lightweight yet impact-resistant for field use
- Captures fine gold - Specialized riffles hold onto particles other pans miss
- 12" x 10" working surface - Optimal size for creek panning and paydirt processing
How It Works
Unlike conventional gold panning techniques that require repetitive circular motions, the Gold Claw uses advanced riffle geometry to trap gold quickly. The five different riffle patterns create varying water flows and settling zones, allowing both flour gold and nuggets to drop into secure pockets.
This makes it perfect for beginners who haven't mastered traditional panning rhythms, while experienced prospectors appreciate the speed boost when processing large amounts of material. It's equally effective with creek concentrates, paydirt samples, and field sampling.
