One premium bag of paydirt guaranteed to have over 1/4 gram of gold inside. The added gold will typically range in size from #30 mesh to #8 mesh (with at least one picker/nugget guaranteed in every bag).
Our gold paydirt comes from our family gold/platinum claim along the East Fork Lewis River in the Gifford Pinchot National Forest and we mix it with Washington sand to help dry it out. (Both the sand and our paydirt contain naturally occurring placer gold). Because our paydirt is unsearched and we want to guarantee gold in every bag, we source gold directly from miners in Alaska. Every bag also has a small picker that we purchased from Mike at Gold Nugget Sales.
- Every bag exceeds the minimum of 1/4 grams of gold. About 1 in 10 bags have double the minimum gold (or more!) Bonus bags are intended to replicate the experience of finding a good spot on the river, just like a real gold panning experience.
- Wide variety of flake/nugget sizes. The gold typically ranges from #30 mesh to #8 mesh. The majority of the gold is usually pretty chunky, except for some of the fines.
- 4/10 Difficulty Level - You may need to pan the bag 2-3 times to find all of the smaller flakes. (The smaller flakes are more similiar to what you would find in most creeks and rivers. Learning to pan the smaller flakes is great for anyone who wants to practice with paydirt before panning "in the wild.") We classify it with 1/4 mesh to remove any large river rocks that are larger than 1/4 inch in size. There are some black magnetics, but most panners are surprised to find less than they expected compared to other paydirts that look similar.
- Approximately 1 lb. of dirt in every bag (Most bags will be over 1 lb., but we don't weigh individual bags prior to shipping them so there may be a little more or a little less than 1 lb. per bag)
- If you are interested in ROI (Recovery of Investment) this is not the bag for you. Experienced panners should get our Full Gram paydirt bag, which we sell for spot price.

NOTE: The gold in the photos with the nickel are #10 mesh nuggets and are only shown to give buyers an idea of what the size of a typical #10 mesh nugget is. The photo of the gold on a scale is more indicative of what one will find in a bag of Gold Baron Paydirt. The photos are not intended to show buyers the exact quantity of gold in a bag of Gold Baron paydirt.
