Gold Panning Paydirt The perfect gift! You and your kids will love panning for gold like a real miner! Each bag is filled with at least two (2+) pounds of paydirt from gold-rich areas in Vermont. The paydirt is unprocessed. We classify it down to approximately 1/2 inch, making it ready-to-pan. The paydirt may contain: Nuggets, pickers, fine gold, gold flakes, gold dust, and/or black sands. We find gold in nearly all of our pans. We have no clue what is in each bag, making it a real surprise and exciting panning adventure! If you pan correctly you will find gold. We collect gold every day that we search for it, and there is plenty of material to go around. Some people are not able to go out mining everyday or even have locations that bear gold, so we are bringing the fun and enjoyment of panning to you. Thank you for your interest and good luck panning!
